Project Types (Standard, Micro, IPM)
Compare Standard, Micro, and IPM project types, including descriptions, use cases, features, and key differences
GenRocket provides three Project Types that are tailored to specific use cases, enabling you to allocate Project capacity efficiently while supporting features that require specialized Project configurations.
IMPORTANT: The Project Type feature must be enabled by GenRocket in order to see the following options when creating your Project. To enable it, please contact GenRocket Support at support@genrocket.com.
| Project Type | Description | Use Cases | Restrictions / Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|

Support up to five (5) Project Versions No Domain or Attribute Limits |
| Micro Project | Designed for domain-limited use cases where a full standard project isn't practical or cost-effective. |

|
