Those of you who use alertra and have many servers (for example if you have like 5 servers or whatever)... do you get billed from alertra 5 seperate charges each month, or can they combine the billing instead for all 5 servers into one fee?

Does anybody know, i already emailed altera just waiting for response... i couldn`t find the answer anywhere.

:confused:

It's a single monthly bill for all servers under the account.

We monitor 20 servers with Alertra, and it's a 1 billing amount per month. :)

Alerta is SOOOOO expensive. I would sign up with them but their rates are unreasonable in my opinon.

Really? I figure someone that can afford unlimited space hard drives would easily be able to pay for Alerta... :rolleyes:

I have alertra checking my server every 10 minutes and it is very accurate and works great.

It`s under $20/month per server... i don`t think that`s expensive for reliable monitoring.

I tried other ones but so far alertra seemed like it was the most reliable but what do i know.

An hours downtime whilst you are doing shopping is expensive. Six bucks is not.

Well... when you are monitoring many servers... I prefer an in-house solution. But for one or two, alertra is a good choice.
