Free Trial
New workspaces start on a 30-day free trial of the paid functionality, with no credit card required. During the trial you can change subscription settings such as user count, so you can size the plan against the team that will actually use it before you commit.
When the Trial Ends
If you have not subscribed by the time the trial expires, what happens depends on whether your workspace fits inside the Free tier:
- Within Free-tier limits (3 users or fewer) — the workspace may be transferred to the Free plan and you keep working.
- Over Free-tier limits — access is suspended, and the account is deleted 14 days after suspension.
If your trial workspace has more than three users, it will not roll over to the Free tier on its own. Either subscribe or reduce the workspace to within Free-tier limits before the trial expires. Once suspended, you have 14 days to act before the account and its data are deleted.
The Terms of Use are the authoritative statement of this behaviour.
Managing Your Subscription
Billing is managed in Settings → Billing.
- Change plan — move between plans at any time. You are not locked into a tier that no longer matches your needs.
- Adjust seats — change the number of users on the subscription as the team grows or shrinks.
- Billing contact and address — enter your full billing address in the billing contact form. The phone field detects and pre-fills the country code.
- Reactivate — a cancelled subscription can be reactivated without recreating the workspace, keeping all existing projects, test cases, and history.
Viewers Do Not Consume Seats
On paid plans, Viewer accounts are unlimited and free. Product managers, developers, and other stakeholders who only need to follow quality status can be added without affecting your bill. Only roles above Viewer count toward the per-user price.
On free accounts the paid-seat and viewer distinction does not apply; the overall user limit governs instead.
See Users and Permissions for what each role can do.
Choosing the Right Plan
When selecting a plan, consider the following factors:
- Team Size: How many active users will need access to QA Sphere? Remember that viewers are unlimited and free.
- Project Complexity: Do you manage multiple projects or have complex testing requirements?
- Storage Needs: How much documentation and test artifact storage do you require?
- AI Usage: How heavily will you use AI generation and the AI assistant? See AI Features for what consumes credits.
- Security Requirements: Do you need SAML SSO, SCIM provisioning, 2FA enforcement, or an IP allow list? Those are Business-tier features.
- Support Level: What level of support does your team need to operate efficiently?
Remember, you can start with the Free tier to explore QA Sphere's capabilities and upgrade as your needs grow. Our flexible structure ensures that you're never locked into a plan that doesn't serve your current needs.
