[Release] Checkmk beta release 2.2.0b1

The Checkmk Free Edition and the trial are being continued as part of the Checkmk Cloud Edition from Checkmk 2.2.0

So there will no 2.2.0 edition with no cloud anymore? :frowning:

In 2.2.0, you have

  • Checkmk Raw Edition
  • Checkmk Enterprise Edition
  • Checkmk Enterprise Edition Managed Services
  • Checkmk Cloud Edition

The Free Edition is merged with the Cloud Edition as this is now possible with the new license mgmt feature, which is only part of the Cloud Edition.

That’s sad - I used the free privately to check my systems, test and improve my skills in the Enterprise version.

Then just switch from Enterprise Free to Cloud Edition. This can be used gratuit up to 750 services.

For me that’s not the same. And I think the cloud has only 30 days of trial?

For 30 days, it’s unlimited. Afterward, it is restricted to 750 services and no distributed monitoring – quite close to former free that was 25 hosts and no distributed monitoring. No time limitation and no license key necessary.

As Mattias already said. Technically, the Cloud Edition really works like the previous Free Edition. Just with the difference that you have the possibility to unlock the services limit and site limit after 30 days directly in the product, if you want/need to.
