If you want to hand off all the hard stuff about monitoring and get some easy to use, core functionality (graphing, alerts, dashboards) then my company https://www.serverdensity.com https://www.serverdensity.com has been going 7+ years now. For highly sophisticated environments then https://www.datadog.com https://www.datadog.com is a very advanced product. Both are based off my original agent: https://github.com/serverdensity/sd-agent https://github.com/serverdensity/sd-agent (DataDog forked it in 2010 and we forked them back last year). We're also behind http://www.humanops.com http://www.humanops.com trying to build monitoring that also helps you run on-call and ops teams generally in a way that considers fatigue, stress and the realities of the humans running IT systems! E.g. https://blog.serverdensity.com/introducing-alert-costs/ https://blog.serverdensity.com/introducing-alert-costs/ and https://opzzz.sh https://opzzz.sh

dmytton you have done a FANTASTIC job on your pricing page (https://www.serverdensity.com/pricing/ https://www.serverdensity.com/pricing/)! I just got screwed by DataDog's confusing pricing page (http://sagemath.blogspot.com/2016/07/datadogs-pricing-dont-make-same-mistake.html http://sagemath.blogspot.com/2016/07/datadogs-pricing-dont-m...). Your's is the ultimate example of what to do right. WOW.

  Thanks! We just recently released this new pricing page as a test. We've done a few iterations over the years and patio11 did a great writeup at http://www.kalzumeus.com/2012/08/13/doubling-saas-revenue/ http://www.kalzumeus.com/2012/08/13/doubling-saas-revenue/

"generally in a way that considers fatigue, stress and the realities of the humans running IT systems!" I've been pushing for that to be included in more scheduling systems for production workers. Very awesome to see it considered in your work! :)
