The details of what's included in and limitations of using a Free plan.
Do you know what’s better than a free trial? A free plan.
Free plans don’t have a time limit on them. Free plans don’t pressure you to make a decision and commit to a product before you really know if it will work for you.
Instead of trying out a product in a hypothetical situation for a limited time, our Free plan allows you to incorporate TestGorilla into your workflow: using it on real candidates for real jobs, to help you get value before deciding if you need to invest money in one of our paid plans. This article is for current or potential users of our Free plan.

Assessment specific limitations

Trialing premium features
We know how frustrating free plans can be: how do you know you want to upgrade to a paid plan until you have a chance to try out the features of that plan?
The great news is that you still can. You can test out most premium features and all premium tests within your Free plan. We recommend reading this article to help you fully understand how to trial premium features, but the gist of it: create an assessment that utilizes a free feature or test, and invite either yourself or one of your account users to take it. They’ll be able to do so, free of charge.
Common questions
How do I upgrade to a paid plan?
Upgrading to a paid plan is fairly simple: choose one of the upgrade buttons found throughout your account, and follow the onscreen instructions to upgrade in one of five different currencies. For full details on purchasing a paid plan, please take a look at our article Subscribe to, change, or cancel a plan.
