Free storage limit

As part of our new cloud service offerings, Pix4D has established a Cloud Fair Usage Policy to ensure efficient and equitable resource usage. This policy outlines the storage limits associated with each product license and provides guidelines on actions that will be taken if these limits are exceeded.

  • PIX4Dmatic, PIX4Dsurvey, PIX4Dfields, and PIX4Dreact: 15 GB.

  • PIX4Dcloud Basic: 500 GB.

  • PIX4Dcloud Advanced: 2 TB.

  • PIX4Dcloud Enterprise or Engine Cloud: 10 TB.

Important: Pix4D strives to provide sufficient storage for its users. However, if it identifies excessive or unfair storage usage, Pix4D reserves the right to occasionally request certain users to reduce their storage usage.

Warning: The total storage is not the sum of all licenses. For example, a user with a PIX4Dmatic and a PIX4Dcloud standard license can store up to 500 GB.
