Pricing per User vs Pricing per Zone: What Does It Mean?

Soundsuit pricing can vary depending on how your business uses music. The right model usually depends on whether music is tied to people or to physical locations.

 

Typical examples:

  • Restaurants
  • Hotels
  • Retail stores
  • Fitness clubs
  • Offices
  • Waiting rooms
  • Reception areas
  • Shared common spaces
  • School cafeterias or hallways
  • Care home lounges

A Zone is one independently controlled music area that can play its own stream.

 

Examples of Zones:

  • Reception
  • Restaurant room
  • Terrace
  • Bar
  • Waiting room
  • Corridor
  • Staff lounge
  • Therapy common room

If you want different music in four separate areas, you need 4 Soundsuit Zones.

 


Pricing per User

Best for organizations where music is actively used by individual team members during their own sessions, classes, treatments, or daily activities.

 

Typical examples:

  • Event agencies
  • Personal trainers
  • Teachers
  • Child-care professionals
  • Therapists
  • Doctors or nurses using music in patient care
  • Wellness practitioners
  • Mobile teams working across locations

In this model, pricing depends on how many people need to use Soundsuit at the same time.

 

Example Use Cases:

 

Education

A teacher uses music during:

  • concentration time
  • creative workshops
  • classroom transitions
  • sports lessons
  • relaxation moments

If 3 teachers use Soundsuit simultaneously in different classrooms, you need 3 user licenses.

 

Child Care / Kindergarten

Team members individually use music for:

  • morning arrival
  • nap time
  • play sessions
  • dance activities
  • calming routines

 

Healthcare / Therapy

Professionals use music individually for:

  • therapy sessions
  • sensory work
  • rehabilitation exercises
  • calming anxious patients
  • waiting-room guidance
  • wellness treatments

If 2 therapists run music simultaneously in separate treatment rooms, you need 2 user licenses.

 


Which Model Is Right for Me?

Choose Per Zone if music belongs to fixed rooms or areas.
Choose Per User if music follows your staff and is used individually during their work.

Some organizations use a hybrid model:

  • Zones for reception / waiting areas / common rooms
  • Users for teachers / therapists / mobile staff
