Why can I still use Team Calendars even though my trial has expired?

[Riley Emmerson-Franke]

This isn't much of a problem pre-se, rather something I am puzzled about.

Several weeks ago I started a trial of Team Calendars + Confluence to create a proof-of-concept on how it could work for my team.

However, my trial has been over for a week now, and I am still able to add and edit events on our Team Calendar, which I am confused about. Is this an expected behaviour or am I missing something?

I am aware that I can continue to use the free version of Confluence if we have less than 10 users registered (which we do), but I am not sure if the same rule applies to calendars.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Riley,

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to meet you!

If your trial expired about a week ago, it's likely you're still in the cooling-off period for that add-on. This gives you an extra bit of time to decide if you want to renew the add-on. That way, you're not shut-out the day that it expires. I believe the time is around 15 days. Of course, if you no longer want your team accessing that add-on, you can disable it via UPM.

I hope that clarifies things for you, but let me know if you have any questions about that!

Regards,

Shannon

Thank you Shannon!

I was still able to add events to the calendar 2 weeks after your response, however today I finally saw a message that the calendar was read-only and that a subscription was required to create events. It's pretty cool that the add-on has a generous cooling-off period.

Thanks again for your help, cheers!

Hi Riley,

Thank you for getting back to me on this. Glad to hear that was indeed the case! 

Take care, and have a pleasant rest of your week.
