Deluge plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.

What the product covers
The full Deluge feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Daemon and thin-client split
- Plugin system
- Web UI
- Label organisation
- Low resource daemon
- Cross-platform clients
People bring Deluge in for a user running a seedbox or dedicated home server who wants full torrent control from a separate lightweight client, someone who wants to organise a large torrent collection with labels and plugin-based automation, a nas owner who wants a low resource daemon with genuine remote control rather than only a web ui, a user building a home media automation stack that expects a proper thin-client api rather than only a browser interface. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Deluge are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Deluge badges page.
Before you pay for Deluge
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at Free. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Deluge runs on mac, windows, linux, and is published by Deluge (open source project) of Open source community project. The full record is on the Deluge review, and the rest of the category is under best utilities tools.
