# Lens Plans & Pricing Update

Miska Kaipiainen June 4, 2025 4 min read

We've just rolled out an important update to **Lens pricing and plans**. As Lens has grown to serve over a million users, we've seen firsthand how diverse the use cases have become—from solo developers experimenting with Kubernetes to large organizations managing production clusters across regions.

That's why we've redesigned our plans to better align with the *real-world needs* of our users.

## **What's Changing?**

Previously, we offered three plans serving features across user types, which sometimes led to confusion—especially for individuals who didn't need team management capabilities, or small teams unsure if Pro or Enterprise was right for them.

Starting today, we're introducing a more intentional structure: **plans are now divided into two clear tracks—Individuals and Organizations.** Each track is optimized for the scale, context, and features relevant to those users.

## **Plans for Individuals**

Built for developers, hobbyists, students, and professionals who use Lens on their own. Whether you're tinkering with Kubernetes at home or managing clusters for work as an individual contributor, these plans keep things simple, powerful, and personal.

### **Personal – *Free***

A fully-featured Kubernetes IDE, completely free for personal use:

- Manage multiple clusters in one place
- Visualize metrics, logs, and resources with ease
- Use Helm charts, the smart terminal, port forwarding, and more
- Get help through our community forums

Ideal for: learning, experimenting, or using Kubernetes without commercial or team needs.

### **Plus – *$25 per month***

For individual professionals who use Lens at work and need advanced capabilities—but don't need full team management features.

Includes everything in Personal, plus:

- **AWS EKS integration** – discover and connect to EKS clusters effortlessly
- **CVE Reporting** – view vulnerabilities in container images, roles, and Kubernetes resources
- **Hotbar** – quickly jump between clusters with saved favorites
- **Commercial Support** – get help when you need it

Ideal for: professionals using Lens in production environments, working solo or within larger organizations.

## **Plans for Organizations**

These plans are tailored for groups—whether you're a startup, a DevOps team, or an enterprise managing hundreds of clusters. They include collaboration, access control, security, and support features that help teams work together at scale.

### **Team – *Free***

For small teams just getting started or evaluating Lens together:

- Full Lens Desktop functionality for everyone on the team
- Community-based support for questions and issues

Ideal for: early-stage teams exploring Kubernetes or starting small-scale projects.

### **Pro – *$25 per user/month***

Designed for production teams that need powerful Kubernetes tooling and secure remote access—without enterprise overhead.

Includes everything in Team, plus:

- **AWS EKS integration**
- **CVE reporting**
- **Hotbar for multi-cluster workflows**
- **Secure Cluster Discovery & Remote Access** – easily connect to clusters, even behind firewalls
- **Commercial Support** – peace of mind with professional-grade help

Ideal for: DevOps teams, SREs, and developers working on production workloads with security and operational needs.

### **Enterprise – *$50 per user/month***

For organizations with strict security, compliance, and operational requirements.

Includes everything in Pro, plus:

- **Offline / air-gapped mode** – run Lens securely in isolated environments
- **VDI support** – deploy in virtual desktop infrastructure setups
- **Central configuration management** – control settings and policies across your org
- **Single Sign-On (SSO), SCIM provisioning, invoicing support**
- **Priority enterprise support** – dedicated help and faster SLAs
- **Security compliance assistance** – streamline audits and infosec processes

Ideal for: enterprises with compliance requirements, regulatory or operational constraints, including finance, healthcare, and government sectors.

## **Already a Paying User?**

**No action is required.** If you're currently on a Pro or Enterprise plan, your plan and features remain unchanged.

## **Why We Made This Change**

Lens has grown far beyond its origins. It's now the daily Kubernetes companion for developers and operators across the world. Along the way, we've learned that not everyone needs the same things—and that simplicity matters just as much as power.

This update reflects that:

- **Individuals** get the features they need without paying for tools they'll never use
- **Teams** can collaborate and operate clusters securely and efficiently
- **Enterprises** get the security, compliance, and manageability required at scale
