Model: Omada Cloud-Based Controller  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I am now using the service on https://omada.tplinkcloud.com/ and want to upgrade my management.

I want to upgrade my Organization to standard. But I found there are 4 types of cloud service, and I can't tell the difference between Omada Central and Omada Cloud-Based Controller like the pic I paste below.

Also. I found there are another more higher level management type- Omada Pro Cloud-Based Controller which seems more powerful. 

So what is the difference between Omada Central and Omada Cloud-Based Controller ? the service I use now (https://omada.tplinkcloud.com/) is Omada Central or Omada Cloud-Based Controller? Could I upgrade to Omada Pro Cloud-Based Controller on https://omada.tplinkcloud.com/ in the future if I need? or how could I upgrade to Omada Pro Cloud-Based Controller? It seems no entrance on https://omada.tplinkcloud.com/.

Thank you for your post. Omada Central and the Omada Cloud Controller are essentially the same thing—just different names. On an Omada-based controller, as you’ve seen, you can choose either an Essential or Standard organization type when creating an organization. Essential is free and lets you manage devices without purchasing a license, whereas Standard requires one.
Omada Pro Cloud-Based Controller, on the other hand, is the platform for managing Omada Pro devices. Omada Pro is aimed at medium-to-large enterprises and is a separate, standalone product line from Omada, so the Omada Cloud-Based Controller has no interface for managing Omada Pro equipment.
