TrueNAS Connect Plus is now available to all TrueNAS Community Edition users.
Over the past few months, many of you have started using TrueNAS Connect to simplify setup, access, and day-to-day visibility for your systems. As more users connected multiple systems, a clear pattern emerged. What began as a single deployment often grew into a small fleet. Home labs expanded. Secondary systems sprung up as replication targets. Teams added remote sites. Production workloads spread across locations.
In those conversations, one request came up consistently. You wanted an option between TrueNAS Community Edition and TrueNAS Enterprise. Something that delivers more centralized visibility and management, without requiring new hardware or a full Enterprise deployment.
TrueNAS Connect Plus is our response to that feedback.
A brief overview of TrueNAS Connect
TrueNAS Connect is a secure, browser-based management service that extends TrueNAS by providing centralized visibility and simplified management across one or more TrueNAS systems, without replacing the local TrueNAS interface.
The product has now exited beta and is available to all TrueNAS Community Edition users. TrueNAS Connect is offered in two tiers, Foundation and Plus, so you can choose the level of functionality that fits how you run TrueNAS today.
If you are new to Connect or want more detail on the architecture, security model, and core capabilities, see our original introduction.Introducing TrueNAS Connect. Streamlined Management for Your TrueNAS Systems
When the Plus tier makes sense
TrueNAS Connect Foundation remains the free starting point for Connect and is designed to make it easier to get set up, stay informed, and securely access a single TrueNAS system.
The Plus tier is intended for users who are managing multiple TrueNAS systems and want to reduce the friction that comes with switching between interfaces and tracking system health independently. It adds fleet-level visibility, historical reporting, and centralized management tools, while keeping control on your own hardware.
Connect Plus supports up to three TrueNAS systems, with a combined capacity of up to one petabyte.
Community-driven Pricing for Multi-System Setups
When we first introduced the Plus tier, pricing was based on a per-system model. Based on direct feedback from the community, we reworked that approach.
Today, TrueNAS Connect Plus covers up to three systems under a single subscription, at a cost of sixty dollars per year. That works out to as little as twenty dollars per system, providing a simpler and more predictable way to manage a small fleet.
This pricing reflects how many community members actually run TrueNAS, and lowers the barrier to evaluating centralized management across multiple systems.
Early Connectors Promotion
To thank early adopters and encourage continued feedback as TrueNAS Connect evolves, we are offering a limited-time Early Connectors promotion.
With this promotion, new Plus subscriptions are available at 50 percent off for the first year. This brings the annual cost to thirty dollars for up to three systems and is intended to make it easier to try the Plus tier while the platform continues to grow.

Looking Ahead
TrueNAS Connect will continue to evolve as a platform.
In addition to a planned Business tier in 2026 for larger fleets and team-based access, we are actively working on new capabilities that will be added over time. These include ransomware protection features, browser-based file sharing, and additional management enhancements.
As with TrueNAS itself, development is guided by real-world usage and community feedback.
