# Midaz models

> Compare Midaz Community and Enterprise models: choose the licensing tier that fits your needs and pair it with SaaS or BYOC deployment.

Midaz offers two licensing models: **Community** and **Enterprise**. Community fits developers and teams that want the core ledger at no cost. Enterprise fits organizations that need scale, compliance, and support.

## Deployment flexibility

***

Both models are available under Lerian's [BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud)](/en/start-here/evaluate-and-deploy/deployment-models) model. You deploy and operate the platform in your own infrastructure. Enterprise customers can also choose the **SaaS** model, where Lerian manages the full infrastructure.

Your licensing model (Community or Enterprise) defines what features you get. Your deployment model (SaaS or BYOC) defines how the platform runs. These are independent choices.

For a full comparison, see [Deployment models](/en/start-here/evaluate-and-deploy/deployment-models).

## Community model

***

The **Community** model gives you full access to Midaz's core features at no cost, with community support.

### Key benefits

* Free access to [Midaz's core features](/en/products/midaz/core-features).
* Community support through Discord and GitHub.
* Helm Charts for simpler deployments.

This model fits developers, startups, and teams that try Midaz without enterprise support or SLAs.

## Enterprise model

***

The **Enterprise** model fits organizations that require **scalability, compliance, and dedicated support**. It includes **everything in the Community model**, plus:

### Key benefits

* **Lifecycle management** that keeps your infrastructure optimized.
* **Software support** for mission-critical operations.
* **Advanced access management** and **role-based control**.
* **Onboarding assistance** to speed up adoption.
* **Software availability SLA** for uptime commitments.
* **Incident reports and security compliance**.
* **Plugin integration** in a preconfigured environment.

<Note>
  Plugins are available only to Enterprise clients.
