| Free tier | No storage quota at all in self-hosted Mattermost, free or paid. Only the per-file ceiling is configurable: default 100 MB (MaxFileSize = 104857600 bytes), settable to anything.unit MB; metered on stored-bytes |

| Price | none stated |
| Limits |
100 MB per attachment default (configurable), 10 attachments per post, 16,383-char messages. Entry caps message history at 10,000 channel messages across all channels and 1,000 Board cards. |

| Interface | rest rest |
| Tooling | Mattermost REST API v4 POST /api/v4/files (multipart, up to 10 files per post) returning file IDs. Team Edition is MIT-licensed; Entry is the free mode of Enterprise Edition. |
| Composes with | N self-hosted deployments; 10,000 teams per deployment; users per team 'no enforced limit'. Storage is whatever disk you mount — including an S3/MinIO backend via FileSettings. |
| Reliability | Zero platform risk — nothing can delete your files. The failure mode is operational: attachments live on the app server's local disk unless you configure S3, and the docs warn that raising MaxFileSize risks server crashes on large uploads. |
