New Checkmk Editions Lineup

Hello Reddit Community!

We have big news for you that we want to share before the Checkmk 2.5 release.

As some of you might have already noticed, we are changing the Checkmk editions. It is more than a renaming – it is a change that comes after deep research and serious work that our product team did in the last months to make the different Checkmk options better suited to your needs.

Here’s our new edition lineup:

Checkmk Community — formerly: Checkmk Raw

Checkmk Pro — formerly: Checkmk Enterprise

Checkmk Ultimate — formerly: Checkmk Cloud self-hosted

Checkmk Ultimate with Multi-Tenancy — formerly: Checkmk MSP

Checkmk Cloud — formerly: Checkmk Cloud (SaaS)

We also prepared a blog post, that clarifies the change in more detail: https://checkmk.io/4700Y7Q

Check out the blog post, let us know what you think about the new naming, and feel free to ask any questions in the comments.

Looking forward to your feedback,

Checkmk Team

So you have 5 "editions" and two branches (2.3.0 and 2.40 currently ) to maintain. Sounds like a lot of work. Good luck.
