QuickSight Pricing Different User Usecases

Hello!

I have a few questions about user-based pricing model. I understand that the price is fixed and is different depending on a role. The questions I have are:

  1. Imagine the user was present from the beginning of the month and then at some point was deleted - could be even the second day of the month. In this case since the user was present from the beginning of the month, we still pay the full monthly price, is it correct?
  2. Imagine the user was added not in the beginning of the month, the price for that user will not be full month one, it will be prorated, is it correct?
  3. Imagine that there was a user and then the user was deleted, but then again recreated during that month, what will be the price for that user? When the user is recreated, does QuickSight treat it as a brand new user so it will have its own price, or since before the deletion we already kind of payed the price for the month, no extra charge will be made for that user?

Hello Ksenstad,

As per my understanding below is the answer to you your queries

  1. Imagine the user was present from the beginning of the month and then at some point was deleted - could be even the second day of the month. In this case since the user was present from the beginning of the month, we still pay the full monthly price, is it correct?
    Yes 3$, full monthly price.

  2. Imagine the user was added not in the beginning of the month, the price for that user will not be full month one, it will be prorated, is it correct?
    No, its still full monthly price i.e 3$ ( its a fixed price with user based pricing)

  3. Imagine that there was a user and then the user was deleted, but then again recreated during that month, what will be the price for that user? When the user is recreated, does QuickSight treat it as a brand new user so it will have its own price, or since before the deletion we already kind of payed the price for the month, no extra charge will be made for that user?
    3$ for user which was active before deletion and 3$ for same user which was recreated for that month~ 6$
    since each user has a unique id.

Hope this helps.

Thanks @Deep ,

Can I just clarify one more time about point number 2 - even if the user is added on the last day or 2nd-last day of a month we still pay full $3?

I’m just trying to understand whether the price is always montly one, or whether it’s a 30-days period from the moment the user joined. E.g. if user joined in the mid of a month, e.g. 15th of April, the payment of $3 dollars is from 15th of April till 15th of May, or the payment is from 1st of April to 31th of April and it’s $3

Hello Ksenstad,

Yes thats correct. you would still need to pay 3$. Its monthly not 30 days period.

Hope this helps.
