Beekeeper Studio is developed by a small team. We don’t have big-shot venture capital investors, we’re not backed by a big company, and we’re not independently wealthy. Our business model is to make good software and sell it for a fair price.
Alongside the main Beekeeper Studio app we also publish an open source community edition to help make databases more accessible for everyone. Providing the community edition negatively impacts our revenue, but good software should be available to everyone, not just those with money.
By purchasing Beekeeper Studio, you are not only investing in your own productivity – you are supporting our continued investment in Beekeeper Studio, and also the development of the open source Community Edition. That’s called a win-win-win.
Lifetime Access: A Unique Benefit for Both Annual and Monthly Subscribers
Whether you choose an annual or a monthly subscription plan for Beekeeper Studio, you’re eligible for a lifetime usage license. This means you gain perpetual access to any version of Beekeeper Studio released within your subscription period, allowing you to use the software indefinitely without any additional payments.
Annual subscribers get lifetime access right away
Suppose you start an annual subscription on March 10, 2021. You’ll receive a lifetime license for any version of Beekeeper Studio released until March 10, 2022. Even if your subscription ends, you can continue using any of these versions forever.
Monthly subscribers get lifetime access after 12 months
If you opt for a monthly subscription and complete 12 consecutive months, the same benefit applies. For example, if you begin your monthly subscription on March 10, 2021, and maintain it through February 2022, you’ll have lifetime access to versions released during this period.
Why Our Subscribers Stick Around
Our customers are head over heels for the lifetime license, but there’s more to Beekeeper Studio that keeps them subscribed:
Subscriptions allow us continue to provide updates and maintenance for things like new databases releases and new operating system requirements. It also allows us to invest in new features and enhancements to the app.
You can cancel your subscription anytime but you’ll no longer have access to the latest improvements.
Beekeeper Studio - The full-featured version of Beekeeper Studio available on this website. Perfect for businesses and professionals. This edition contains every app feature and comes with a business-friendly commercial license.
Community Edition - A limited version of Beekeeper Studio that supports fewer databases and has fewer features. It is open source, and available from GitHub. This edition is perfect for students or others who are not using databases professionally. The community edition is published with a GPLv3 license.
If you buy and use Beekeeper Studio after using the community edition, all your data will automatically transfer, no manual work is required.
The one exception is if you were using the Linux snap version of community edition. You will need to copy your Beekeeper configuration directory from the isolated snap directory to your ~/.config directory
You can continue to use the software forver, but you will only be able to use versions of Beekeeper Studio released within your subscription period.
The more licenses you buy, the cheaper each individual license becomes.
Some licenses are limited to a set number of devices. You must not use the software on more devices than your license allows.
Unlimited-device licenses are issued to people, not machines. Licenses are not tied to specific computers or operating systems. As a license key holder you can use the same license key across multiple computers for which you are the primary user.
For multi-user licenses, so long as the total number of people using Beekeeper Studio is fewer than or equal to your subscription seat count, you’re good to go.
If you buy a license for yourself you are free to use it however you wish. You can use it at work, home, or at your grandma’s house.
You should not use a license purchased for you by your employer at home, except when using a work computer and working remotely. The license is owned by the business and shouldn’t be shared with other companies or individuals.
When you buy a license you are provided with a license key. Give this license key to the app users, up to the maximum number of people indicated in your subscription.
It is your responsibility to ensure that the number of individuals using the license is less than or equal to your subscription seat count.
You do not need to track the number of devices the license key is used on, only the maximum number of individuals using the key.
If you are not satisfied with Beekeeper Studio within 30 days of purchase, contact us for a full refund.
If you are an organization looking to purchase a license to be used by an unlimited number of users, please contact us.
Sharing license keys with other individuals or organizations is not allowed.
If you are purchasing 50 licenses or more, please contact us to discuss reasonable changes.
An annual emailed invoice with NET payment terms is available for customers purchasing 50 licenses or more. contact us to set this up, and for ACH instructions.
Sometimes payments get missed by mistake, no big deal. We wont immediately deactivate your license key on a missed payment, and will contact you to attempt to resolve the matter.
If we cannot reach you or resolve the issue for 14 days then your subscription will end and your license key will be disabled.
Sometimes a charge is disputed. Typically this is due to turnover or a business not recognizing an infrequent charge. Please contact us if you have any concerns or questions.
If you wish to resubscribe after disputing a charge, we ask that you acknowledge your error in disputing the charge and pay any fees incurred by the dispute.
Resellers are welcome. You can easily create multiple subscriptions (one for each customer) in the license management portal.
Customers purchasing over 50 licenses should contact us with reasonable requests for documentation.
Beekeeper Studio runs entirely on end-user computers and so we never have any access to your data or settings.

Beekeeper Studio will re-validate your license occasionally by contacting our servers.
If an error occurs, you may be asked if you wish to submit the error to us for triage.
You may be asked to consent to the collection of anonymous application usage information. This is opt-in and totally optional.
We do not collect personal information as part of these processes. Any time we collect personal information we will ask for your explicit consent.
