Does Minemax have a free plan?

Not on the record we hold: Minemax is listed as subscription. Whether a free trial is offered is not something this record captures, so check the vendor's site.

Is the Minemax Premium plan on Minemax worth it?

That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is advanced optimization, production scheduling, fleet management, real-time analytics. It costs $23000/year against $13000/year for Minemax Standard. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.

Does Minemax charge per user?

The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 2 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.

Are these Minemax prices current?

They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.

Minemax 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.

Minemax pricing tiers
Plan	Price	Features listed	Step up from the tier below
Minemax Standard	$13000/year	4	Entry tier
Minemax Premium	$23000/year	4	+$10000/year, 4 more features

What each tier adds

The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

Minemax Standard

$13000/year

The entry tier. It covers geological modeling, mine design, resource estimation, basic scheduling.

Minemax Premium

$23000/year

Over Minemax Standard, this tier adds:

Advanced optimization

Fleet management
Real-time analytics

Production scheduling
Pit optimization

Integrations

Datamine
Vulcan
Surpac
Leapfrog
SAP

Platform

Windows support

People bring Minemax in for strategic open pit and underground mine schedule optimisation, life of mine planning to maximise net present value, operational short interval mine scheduling. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Minemax are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

How that compares in Mining & Resources

Too few mining & resources tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

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 Minemax badges page.

Before you pay for Minemax

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: 2 tiers between $13000/year and $23000/year, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Minemax against the tools that do have one before committing.

Minemax runs on windows, and is published by Minemax of Melbourne, Australia. The full record is on the Minemax review, and the rest of the category is under best mining & resources tools.
