#ICYMI (In-Case-You-Missed-It)

(1) Price Adjustments

Zimbra has introduced a price increase on all Zimbra offerings to take effect on Oct 1, 2024.

While Zimbra has maintained stable pricing for the last ten years, the inflation environment has made it harder to remain the same.

We are prioritizing innovative features in a more frequent release cadence. This aligns with our planned price increase in October, ensuring our partners and customers receive enhanced value in your investments.

Visit the Partner Portal to download the new price list. Customers are advised to contact your Zimbra representative for more details.  

 

(2) New License for Zimbra Daffodil 10.1

It is mandatory to obtain a new license key to run the Zimbra Daffodil 10.1 software 
You will not be able to proceed without a new Zimbra Daffodil V10.1 license key (including trial license) 

Before installation, it is highly recommended to review the release notes and installer guides to ensure a smooth setup process –
