I want to start with the development of a mobile application in order to have an MVP that allows me to test the market.
That is why I have some questions about the free version. So, it is mentioned that a maximum of 100 end users is allowed:
As for the database, I saw that it can connect to AWS, so:
I know it's a lot of questions in one, I hope you can understand and address my queries.
Thank you very much in advance.
Hello Harold,
You can always check users in your projects from Users Application.
Kindly go through the below post for more information, as the same question has been asked here:
https://www.outsystems.com/forums/discussion/67564/included-number-of-end-users-in-all-packages/
Actually, I feel that the answer is outdated because now there is no classification for "included" end-users anymore. So, in fact, the second and last questions have not yet been answered.
For the second question, you can configure the end users that is option available in paid licenses. You can visit for more information on configuration on the below link:

Sorry, you are not answering my second question by the link, actually is for the first one.
Why is this relevant information if the question is about the Free Personal Edition?
Hi @Harold Rueda,
The free version has a limit of concurrent users because the hardware resources are being shared between multiple personal environments (free environments) and sized for prototyping and exploratory learning, not production.
As far as I'm aware, it's not a restriction that needs to be enforced, because above 100 concurrent users you will likely start noticing a performance impact, and cloud ops may decide to do maintenance on your environment if it's impacting the performance of other environments using the same shared resources (there is no guarantee of availability/service for personal environments).
Using an AWS database instance will not impact any user limits/restrictions in personal environments, but it will allow you to workaround the 2GB OutSystems database limit.
To be clear, since you haven't provided any payment information, OutSystems won't be able to automatically charge you for anything.
Hope this helps!
Hi,
You can see the max number of users in service center under the tabs Administration > License
Furthermore, there are no options to extend the limitations of the free license.
The free license is for developers to learn and experiment with OutSystems, not to run production.
You can request a trial license of a month, sometimes you can request it to be extended with 1 month extra.
Then you have to take a paid license.
Of course, you could decide to run an app in production in your personal edition, but there are serious limitations:

Daniel
