I have a question about building a decent sized app on Appsheet. Iโm trying to build a very specific ERP sort of system. Thereโs a bunch of different data sources. Hereโs a list of what I would call โModulesโ.
Third Party (Customers, Vendors) Purchasing Inventory Parts RFQs Quotes Material Data Job Setups Orders Shipping Billing
Obviously it would be sweet to build these all separately and link them together using a program like the sample โIT Apps Managerโ. However, the pricing module would make this prohibitive - there are a total of 11 โmodulesโ. If I wanted to run my tiny company on this with myself, partner and one employee having access to these modules, that would be something like $165/m.
Is there anyway I can build this in a modular way, without having separate โappsโ - theyโre kind of useless on their own unless tied together but I doubt billing will see it that way. Or am I stuck paying $55/user/m unless I build one huge app?
Thanks
Soooโฆ I just read the pricing again and apparently itโs PER USER. Meaning Iโm good to build it modular. Do I get that right?
Yes, if all your apps are in one account and you have n distinct users then you pay for n users.
Per User, per App.
Iโd build it all into one big App, more convenient for me that way.
I have much of this in one app, works great!
Wait - so is the pricing per user (who can use multiple apps) or is it per user per app? Example - one user with 3 apps - $10/m or $30/m?
It doesnโt matter how many apps you have in your โper userโ account. I believe you are using PRO plan soโฆ if you have 5 users and 100 apps, itโs $50 per month.
@Stephen_Mattison unfortunately itโs not that simple.
When the data size is small and you have lot of references between almost all tables, then the answer could be one app. If the situation is not like that, then itโs better to use separate apps. If the sync time is like 15 sec which might be still okay, you could probably open the separate app within 5 sec when they are small. It totally depends what the structure needs to be.
Wherever you can, use separate apps for different distinct functions. The pricing model for business use cases is per user. it is only the consumer use cases that utilize the per-app pricing model.
Humm!
