Yandex 360 for Business will no longer be free of charge
Starting April 17, 2023, the free Yandex 360 for Business version will be running with certain restrictions. In this tutorial, you will learn how to continue using Tracker if you do not need the Yandex 360 for Business services.
Who will be affected by the changes?
The changes will affect all Tracker users with a free-of-charge organization in Yandex 360 for Business.
To see what organizations your Tracker is linked to, click Admin settings → Organizations in the left-hand panel. To check if you pay for an organization in Yandex 360 for Business, click Manage organization in the section with the appropriate organization and go to Payment and service plan.
Why do I have an organization in Yandex 360 for Business if I only had Yandex Cloud Organization set up?
Previously, organizations in Yandex Cloud Organization did not support managing Tracker user groups. That is why a Yandex 360 for Business organization was automatically created for an organization in Yandex Cloud Organization and the settings of the users of these organizations were synced.
What will change?
For Yandex 360 for Business
On April 17, 2023, Yandex 360 for Business will suggest that the owners of free-of-charge organizations switch to the paid service plan they will be charged for separately from Tracker services.
Unless you switch to the paid service plan, the following changes take effect starting April 18, 2023:
- You will no longer be able to edit the lists of organization members in Yandex 360 for Business.
- If you used your organization in Yandex 360 for Business for managing groups in Yandex Cloud Organization, the groups will no longer be synced.
For Yandex Cloud Organization
Starting March 2023, Yandex Cloud Organization will support user group management in Tracker.
Yandex Cloud Organization administrators will also be administrators in Tracker (the organization-manager.admin and organization-manager.organizations.owner roles). You will be able to appoint an administrator by granting a user the tracker.admin role.
Yandex Cloud Organization will remain free of charge.
For Tracker
The Tracker interface will allow you to choose which organization to use.
What should I do on April 17, 2023?
If it is important to you that the organization management service remains free of charge, enable the Yandex Cloud Organization organization in the Tracker interface and disable Yandex 360 for Business. We will send an email with detailed instructions to Tracker administrators in March 2023.
If you need to use the Yandex 360 for Business features, switch to the paid service plan.
You can also enable both organizations and take advantage of each of them. To help you decide, we made a comparison of organization service features.
