Auvik vs. PRTG Pricing: Why a Published Price Isn’t a Predictable One

This article compares the pricing models of PRTG, which uses a sensor-based tiered system, and Auvik, which utilizes a per-device model. While PRTG's costs increase based on the depth of monitoring and can jump significantly between license tiers, Auvik's pricing is driven by the number of managed devices, offering more predictability when adding additional metrics to a single device. Ultimately, the choice depends on whether a user can more accurately predict their total device count or the specific depth of monitoring required for each.
