# Squirro Self-Service Instances

Squirro provides a single tenant setup for cloud-hosted instances.

## Why a Single Instance

A single instance (or tenant) is a single instance of Squirro serving a single customer. With single tenancy, each customer has their own setup.

Each trial instance is limited to 10 authorized users and a fair usage policy.

Production instances vary in size. [Contact sales for details](https://squirro.com/contact/).

## Benefits of Single-Tenant Instances
