Predictable price

In UI Bakery, you're charged based on the number of users. There are different prices for Developers and End-Users. However, if you're on the Business plan or a higher tier and use Shared Permission Groups, your fee might become fixed and not change with the number of end-users.

The Shared Permission Group is a special type of custom user role in UI Bakery. It can only be given the "use" permission for apps and data sources. If you assign end-users only this role, they won't be included in your count of paid End-User seats. This means that if you have a large group needing the same permissions, you can use a single Shared Permission Group for them. Just remember, you need to buy each Shared Permission Group separately.

No, if you require really granular permissions, you don't have to use Shared Permission Groups. You can simply assign standard user roles to all your End-Users, and they will be considered as paid End-User seats.

Yes, you definitely can. In fact, this is our recommended approach to create an efficient billing strategy. As a general guideline, if your user group is over 25 and expanding, using Shared Permission Groups makes a lot of sense.

Yes. If you need to achieve a better data security level, you can download UI Bakery and keep it in your own VPC/VPN. The setup takes minutes.

To take full advantage of UI Bakery, you need to have a general understanding of how web apps work, how to make requests to servers, use variables, modify JavaScript snippets. Frontend development skills are not essential.

You’re not locked in by the current platform functionality. You can develop your own components using React or plain JavaScript. Connect any third-party library like moment.js or lodash to extend the built-in functionality. Embed the created apps into your existing solution, or host the on-premise version of UI Bakery on your own VPS or in the cloud.
