You may want to rethink the pricing. I have several server variants that I effectively clone in different datacenters across my deployment. Since the base images are static I would really only need to run the agent on n servers (where n is the number of server variants that I have) to ensure that my entire deployment is protected.
I'm not sure if you would consider this unethical. I would probably feel differently about the pricing if it were tiered levels related to the entire size of the deployment (e.g.: 1-50 servers: $x/mo, 50-250 servers: $y/mo, 250+ servers: $z/mo).

Ya, that's fair and a good suggestion. I think we may very well end up doing something like that. We're still trying to figure out what kind of model best suits the server fleets people have. We'll be keeping the first server free, and probably have a not for profit tier.
- pdpi 11y agoAs an added note, $9 per server doesn't seem excessive when I think of our large bare metal servers, but it starts looking _really_ pricy if I look at our $50/mo m3.mediums in AWS.
