User opinions about Blynk price and value

Value for money rating:

Of 114 reviews that provide robust commentary on Blynk's price and value, 68% mention it in a positive light.

Reviewers appreciate that Blynk offers a free version, which is sufficient for small projects and hobbyists. They find the pricing fair, especially for the ability to build proof-of-concept apps for free and only paying for additional widgets or features. Users think the cost of tokens for the cloud-hosted version is reasonable, and hosting on a personal server makes tokens free. Some users report that educational discounts and flexible pricing options add value. They say the free tier allows for significant experimentation and development without incurring costs. However, some reviewers feel that the free version has limitations, such as low starting credits and limited functionality, which can be restrictive. They indicate that the cost of advanced features and premium memberships can be high, particularly for students, hobbyists, and startups. Some users report that the pricing model can become expensive when sharing apps or implementing more complex projects. They find the cost of publishing applications and the monthly fees to be high, making it less accessible for those with limited budgets.

“The free version will be enough for small projects and if one buy tokens they can be re-used for another project if you want to start all over or do something different.”

“Although the software was good but the energy balance is limited in free tier and being student it is difficult to finance the Blynk app.”
