Ask HN: JumpCloud Billing and Cancellation

sgammon — Sun, 24 May 2026 13:30:35 +0000

Hey everyone. I suspect many startups here use JumpCloud for IDP and SSO, as we do.

We’ve found their billing policies to be quite unfair:

- Cancellation with 30 day notice and in writing only

- Must delete all users/computers manually before cancellation

- Locked admin dashboard effectively prevents admins from performing those steps — in cases where an invoice hasn’t been paid (or if a business has refused on valid grounds), there is then no way to comply with cancellation policies, since users/computers can’t be deleted.

JumpCloud even insists on billing after cancellation has been submitted, again because of this dashboard / users / computers conflict.

Has anyone else run into this?

Yes, there are many ways to do that now, in under 5 minutes. Cloudflare will set all of that up just fine. GSuite is much easier to set up than CPanel.

It seems to me that authorization services like JumpCloud should always provide some way to contact support when you are locked out.

Otherwise, how can one obtain support? Or notify them of some issue?

Does anyone happen to know where I can send an email to let them know? JumpCloud's status page shows all normal, of course.

People absolutely might confuse a DI framework for Android with this, seeing as lots of teams use both? They are both software products, to start?

> > can’t live up to owning it.

> ?

Dagger, the DI framework, is very popular, supported by Google, and the primary way to do DI on Android (for many). It is not going anywhere. It is unlikely that this tool or product will create a bigger audience. Therefore, it might never "live up to the name," compared to the benchmark set by current Dagger. It's a simple concept.

People aren’t going to confuse a physical knife with this.

Android is the most popular operating system on earth. Names can overlap but you shouldn’t choose one where you can’t live up to owning it.

No it isn’t, otherwise Closure Compiler would (still) be running MS365

Dagger is already a very popular thing -- a DI framework
