The free plan

What the Optanik free plan includes, the daily time limit, and what needs a paid plan.

What the free plan includes

Optanik is free on one endpoint, with no credit card. The free plan is the full product: unattended remote control, VDI and apps, PowerShell and SSH, inventory, patching, files, Optanik Network with device isolation, Optanik DNS, Domain Users, the BitLocker vault, device configuration, automation, reports, the REST API, and MCP, on Windows, Linux, and macOS. Keyring is included read-only for that endpoint, and tickets created by Optanik and the employee ticket page are included.

The daily time limit

The free plan includes twelve hours of remote use a day, shared across the whole account. Optanik warns you when 30 minutes or less are left, and sessions end when the time runs out. The daily allowance resets every night at midnight. Paid endpoints have no daily limit.

What needs a paid plan

  • More than one endpoint: $2 per endpoint per month.
  • No daily time limit: any paid endpoint plan.
  • Optanik Domain: at least 5 paid endpoints.
  • Technicians on Optanik Support: $10 each.
  • Keymasters who edit in Keyring: $1.50 each.
  • Hosting OptaMeet meetings: $5 per user.
  • Inbound email-to-ticket: a paid endpoint, or a paid technician seat.

The free plan and the owner's free seats

The free plan's one endpoint is not a paid endpoint, so it doesn't give the account owner Account-Owner Unified Access. With at least one paid endpoint, the owner gets free seats on Optanik Support, Keyring, and OptaMeet.

Technicians on the free plan

Technicians who manage endpoints in Optanik are free on every plan, including the free plan.

Going back to Free

When a paid subscription ends, the account returns to the free plan and must be at or under one endpoint. Extra endpoints are not deleted, but they stay locked until the account deletes down to one.

Live demos

The live demo is free and needs no account. Live demos can't create an Optanik Domain.
