Important restrictions
Portainer explicitly positions Community Edition for homelabs, personal projects and non-production environments, with no support, SLA or guaranteed security fixes. Business-critical production should use Business Edition. You supply and pay for infrastructure.
Independent community listing, not affiliated with the provider. Always check the latest billing policy and quotas before enabling paid usage.
