We're very active about providing as much free support as possible to users over email, github, and IRC. We've collected some great quotes from users about how impressed they are with our responsiveness.
Unfortunately we're a small team and frequently travel to events, etc. So it's expensive for us to guarantee that someone will be around. Obviously we'd like to provide support to as many people as possible at the lowest possible rate, so as we have more people paying for support and economies of scale kick in we hope to be able to drop those prices. In the meantime we need to cover our costs or development will stall
edit: our current prices are also based on the level of support that our most active beta users needed. Now that we're past 1.0 hopefully users will need less help which will also help lower prices. We have a very high bar for support quality and don't want to overextend ourselves to the point where we can't deliver
- mechazawa 10y agoMaybe try cutting down on events etc then. I feel like our current deploy infrastructure doesn't need to be replaced if it means forking over $1500+ a month.
- danielsiders 10y agoWe designed Flynn to be easy to install and use and for it to take care of itself as much as possible. Users generally get up and running and manage issues on their own. Most current users (from individual developers to large organizations) haven't needed or wanted commercial support contracts. The offering is there for organizations who need significant help and/or an absolute guarantee that they'll be able to reach us at any hour of the day, every day of the year.
