You pay by the hour for the software running on your chosen Amazon EC2 instance. Pricing is not tiered by features. Instead, each rate maps to a specific EC2 instance type. Smaller instances like t3.nano or t2.micro carry lower hourly rates. Larger instances such as x1e.32xlarge or the metal instances carry higher rates, reflecting more compute, memory, or storage. All instances run the same monitoring server with support. You select the instance that matches your workload size, and your cost scales with the capacity you choose.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Am I charged the hourly software fee when my EC2 instance is stopped?
The software fee meters running instance-hours. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. You may still pay underlying AWS storage fees for the attached volume while the instance is stopped. The software rate applies only while the instance runs.
What determines my hourly rate across all these instance options?
Your rate maps to the specific EC2 instance type you launch. Each type carries its own hourly software charge based on its compute, memory, and storage capacity. The monitoring software and support are identical across every instance. You pick the size, and that choice sets the rate.
If I need to monitor more hosts, do I pay a higher software rate?
The software rate is tied to your instance type, not the number of hosts monitored. The engine can scale to manage thousands of hosts and servers. To add capacity, you move to an instance with more compute, memory, or storage, which changes your hourly rate.
