All of our tiers still include custom RBAC. We are limiting advanced filters in some tiers, but it’s still completely available and unlimited through our grant for all individuals and small orgs.
I understand if you disagree with this decision, but we have tried an open core model in the past and only selling professional services and premium extensions. It didn’t work. We could not have hit profitability under that model, and the project would cease to exist.
We’ll have a more thorough description of the “competition” in the MSCL soon… so keep an eye out for that.
