Zimbra Collaboration Suite On-Site Pricing Overview

When deployed on your own server hardware, Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) Network Edition pricing is based on an annual software subscription and comes with updates and Zimbra support.  Licensing is an annual software subscription with updates and support from Zimbra. A perpetual option is also available.

ZCS Network Editions

The primary on-site product editions are ZCS Standard and Professional.

ZCS Standard and Professional can also be enabled with Zimbra Mobile and Zimbra Archiving and Discovery.  These are separate annual licenses (see below).

ZCS on-site is also available in a software-only Starter Edition at a substantial discount (see below).

Pricing and Packaging

On-site licenses are sold in increments of 25 mailboxes and priced on a sliding scale based on the total number of end-user mailboxes purchased and your market.   (Note a mailbox license is defined as a person on the system and does not include distribution lists, aliases, locations, or resources).

For example, 75 Professional Edition mailboxes for a business are priced at $28/year per user ($2,100.00 US); a non-profit for the same will be discounted 50%.
