After comparing Matterport's Legacy Professional and new Professional pricing, I pulled the invoices for the oldest plan I have: a Matterport Classic Basic plan that I signed up for when I first joined Matterport. Classic plans were sold before May 9, 2019, and Matterport has kept existing Classic customers grandfathered ever since. What my Classic Basic plan includes 100 hosted spaces and 3 free processings per month, billed yearly. What it has cost me My April 2024 renewal was $549 for the year. My April 2025 renewal was also $549. My April 2026 renewal was $631, an increase of $82 or about 15%. That increase came from the subscription price increase Matterport announced on May 20, 2025. For annual plans, the new price took effect at the first renewal between June 24, 2025 and June 23, 2026. My 2025 renewal landed just before that window, so I got one more year at the old price. When I went over my 100-space limit, Matterport also billed a $24 monthly storage overage block. Once I was back under 100 spaces, those charges stopped. How that compares to today's plans At $631 per year for 100 spaces, my Classic plan works out to about $6.31 per space per year, or roughly 53 cents per space per month. For the same 100 spaces, a Professional (Legacy) plan is $296 per month, or $3,552 per year. That is $35.52 per space per year. A brand-new customer on today's Professional plan pays $430 per month billed yearly, or $5,160 per year. That is $51.60 per space per year. On monthly billing, it is $516 per month, or $6,192 per year. In other words, a new customer pays about 8 to 10 times what I pay for the same 100 spaces. The catches Classic plans are not a perfect deal. You cannot process or host Pro3 scans on a Classic plan. You cannot transfer spaces from a new-plan account into a Classic account; Matterport ended that on January 31, 2021. Spaces captured with 360 cameras carry processing fees on Classic plans. Matterport has also said it would give at least one year's notice before changing or ending Classic plans, so the grandfathering can end. So what is a Classic plan worth today? For anyone still shooting with a Pro2 or older camera, a Classic plan can save thousands of dollars a year compared to the new pricing. For Pro3 shooters, it mostly works as a low-cost archive for older tours. I do not currently host any tours on mine, but I have kept it every year.

Prices exclude tax. Are you still on a Matterport Classic plan? Would you ever give it up, and what do you think one is worth today? |

| I am extremely grateful for my Classic plan opened 2016 With today's rates I COULD NOT AFFORD TO utilize Matterport. Even with my classic plan pricing and the Canadian dollar exchange now at 41% it is very difficult. I am very disappointed in Matterport not allowing new features when you have this plan. It shows a massive disrespect for clients that have been with Matterport from the beginning. In my geographic region i sell againest Iguide and Matterport loses 100% of the time. My business and clients are based on long term relationships and aggressive prospecting. Tom thank you for laying this out Gary Roberts Guelph Ont Canada |

| Tom...no i am not offering Iguide years ago iguide had a geographic protection for an existing operator,in my Geographic area, that is how i discovered Matterport back in 2016, when i was looking I had been using iguide myself for customers using another camera operator and wanted my own system, when i was not able to, i picked up a Matterport camera. I have brought this to the attention of Matterport 1 or 200 times, and they do not seem to care. Odd here is Canada David is kicking the crap out of Goliath.  |

| @Integratedman oh! great history, thanks for sharing. do you offer any other tour platforms currently? just curious, how many pro2's do you have and how many tours are you creating on average with them? I have 2 pro2's, I have 7 pro3's with Matterport. I don't offer any Matterport tours with the 360 cameras. Sadly, my Pro2's have been sitting in my closet for a while. tom |

| I guess the monthly price increase goes hand in hand with the up front cost decrease. Pro3 now costs $2K less than Legacy users paid for them. That's $14K less for your 7 units. Even a small business with a single Pro3 and 20 active spaces may prefer to spend $4k up front and $1500 annually vs $6K up front and $750 annually. (It would take 32 months for that to even out, and money can be tight in the first few years of a business.) |
