Arduino Cloud plans underwent a restructuring to simplify the options available to makers and enterprises. As part of this update, the Entry and Maker Plus plans have been retired and are no longer available for new subscriptions.

What happens to current subscribers?
If you are currently subscribed to a legacy Entry or Maker Plus plan, you can continue using your plan with all of its existing features, limits, and options. Your subscription will renew automatically as usual, provided your payment details remain valid.
However, if you choose to cancel your legacy plan or switch to a different plan, you will not be able to subscribe to these legacy plans again.

Upgrading from a legacy plan
Upgrading to our current plan structure expands your limits and enables collaboration:
- From Entry to Maker: Upgrading to the current Maker plan increases your capacity to 25 Things, expands data retention to 90 days, and unlocks unlimited variables per Thing to support more complex projects.
- From Maker Plus to Team: Moving to the Team plan introduces multi-user collaboration (allowing up to 50 members to build and manage projects together) and removes strict API rate limits.
