It is common to have a mix of environments: +- **Production:** Requires Premium features (longer data retention, heavy API limits, organization-wide blocklists). +- **Dev / Test / Staging:** Can remain on the Free tier. + +Because the Premium Upgrade applies to an entire **Organization**, the optimal strategy is to separate your Security Engines into different contexts before subscribing. + +When you first create a Console account, your workspace is your "Personal Account". +As a Community account, you can create one extra organization for free. + +We recommend the following setup: +- If you have not already, create a new organization for your **Production** environment. +- Keep your **Dev / Test / Staging** Security Engines in your **Personal Account**. +- Move your **Production** Security Engines to the new **Production** organization. +- Upgrade the **Production** organization to **Premium**. + +To split your Security Engines into different organizations, use either: +- The [Transfer feature](/u/console/security_engines/transfer_engine) from the Security Engine page. +- Or via `cscli`, re-enroll your Security Engines in the desired organization with the `--overwrite` flag to force moving them to the new organization. + +After the transfer, the alerts will reappear in the new organization after a few minutes.
