Pricing and editions

Cloud Insights is available in two editions to suit your organization’s monitoring, optimization and security needs.

Editions & pricing

There are two types of ways Cloud Insights can collect data in your environment, depending whether the source of the data is infrastructure or a service.

Infrastructure assets include hardware resources in your own data center and cloud providers. To collect from these assets an acquisition unit is required. This is a lightweight VM that you control, and is used to securely transmit data to Cloud Insights.

Service assets are applications and servers in the environment. Metrics can be directly collected from these assets without an acquisition unit.

What is a Managed Unit (MU)?

Cloud Insights has a straightforward pricing model based on the number of Managed Units (MUs) you wish to monitor. No need to guess about your next bill. Managed units are not bound to specific device types, giving you the flexibility to re-deploy in line with your business and infrastructure needs.
