Purpose-driven discounts

Reduced pricing for NGOs, care work and people doing useful things

NGOs, non-profits, doctors, medical practices, education projects and companies or teams serving a good cause can ask for reduced rates. Discounts can also be assigned manually when a situation does not fit a standard category.

We do this because we believe in work that is right and important. If your organization helps people, protects communities or keeps essential work running, tell us when requesting an offer.

Displayed amounts are orientation values based on common service lines. Final pricing depends on users, storage, service level, migration effort, travel, legal/compliance requirements and whether the service is one-time, managed or licensed. NGO, student and purpose-driven discounts may be available.
