What limitation does the Mendix Free Edition impose?

The Mendix Free Edition imposes limitations that include restricting functionality, user account numbers, and access to certain features when compared to the paid tiers. This means that while users can still develop and deploy applications on the platform, they will encounter limitations in the number of users, available cloud resources, and advanced capabilities that are part of the paid subscription plans.

Choosing this answer reflects an understanding of how the Free Edition is designed primarily for experimentation and learning, rather than for full-scale production use. Users on the Free Edition often find that once they reach the limits of the available features or encounter performance issues, they need to consider upgrading to a paid plan for enhanced functionality and scalability.

The other options do not accurately capture the essence of the Free Edition’s limitations, particularly regarding the user accounts and feature set. For instance, the claim of unlimited user accounts is not true, nor does the Free Edition provide full access to all modules, and it does not require a lengthy approval process for deployment, merely facilitated within the constraints of its tier.
