We hear you and we’ve since made some changes.Customers coming from the legacy Starter plan will now continue to have unlimited saved charts, Projects, and Spaces on the new Starter plan.You can find the details for both Starter plans below (and anything that’s changed since the original announcement is italicized). Hi everyone! This post is for users who created an organization on the Amplitude free plan (aka the Starter plan) before 8/27/2023. On 8/28/2023, we released a new version of the Starter plan to load our free plan with features (across analytics, experimentation, and audience management) that were previously only available on paid plans. The table below can help you see what’s changed from the legacy to the updated plan. Have thoughts on how these changes affect the way you use Amplitude? This is important for us to know, so please comment below or send m

Changing how we count Monthly Tracked Users

Amplitude is constantly finding ways to enhance customer value. Beginning February 1st, 2024, Amplitude will count Monthly Tracked Users (MTUs) at an organization level, instead of at a project level. This change may lead to a slight drop in your MTU count. How will the new MTU count work?Current MTU counting method: An MTU is a unique user who triggers one or more events in a project within a calendar month. MTU counting method after February 1st change: An MTU is a unique user who triggers one or more events in an organization within a calendar month.As Amplitude will dedupe users across the organization as opposed to a project, many customers may see a slight decrease in their MTU count as a result of this change.Does this change impact me?This MTU counting change applies to all organizations created after October 2017. If your account with Amplitude was created before October 2017 and your org ID is lower than 33746 (your org ID can be found on the Settings page), this change does

Customer FAQ — May 12, 2023

What happened? As part of our vulnerability management program, we recently discovered an Amplitude image that was accidentally made publicly available on DockerHub. Through our investigation, we confirmed that the image included credentials for some third-party integrations, Redshift, and Snowflake for the Amplitude query add-on for certain Amplitude customers. Amplitude removed the image from public access within one hour of the discovery. At this time, there is no evidence that the credentials have been used maliciously. How do I know if I was impacted? If your organization was impacted, your organization’s Amplitude admins were notified via email on Friday, May 12, 2023. If your admins did not receive an email, your organization was not impacted and no action is required. What actions am I supposed to take? Please refer back to the notification email your organization's Amplitude admins received. We've outlined the specific actions your organization needs to take there. When

TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 cryptographic standards removal notice

Amplitude application interfaces (API) to enforce a minimum of TLS 1.2 beginning Nov 28, 2022.Security and privacy are of paramount priority here at Amplitude and we are constantly evolving our security processes based on industry best practices. Part of that evolution is the enforcement of strong cryptographic standards in our environment. The use of at least TLS 1.2 is a recommended security best practice for improved privacy and data integrity and to maintain compliance with the latest industry standards. Last year, Amplitude removed support for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 on Amplitude’s web application https://analytics.amplitude.com. We continued API support for TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1 until now to maintain backward compatibility for customers that have older or difficult to update clients. However, given industry adoption of the TLS 1.2 and negligible traffic received using these older versions,Amplitude has made the decision to employ these higher standards across our environment and d
