LiteMage pricing

[Hedloff]

Hello,

About the pricing you just released:
http://blog.litespeedtech.com/2016/04/21/announcing-our-new-litemage-package-pricing/

How do we check how many publicly cached objects a domain uses?
When your pricing is set like that it will make us have all LiteMage installations on one server and that's not a great option at all.
And I also think the pricing is a little high.
Are there discounts for hosting companies that has more servers than just a couple of licenses?

Pricing for LiteMage was determined relative to value. For existing LiteSpeed customers supporting small stores (<5000 objects), we decided to include the LiteMage extensions in the normal caching prices to make it available for customers with small budgets.

For larger stores, we did a lot of market research at Imagine last week to validate that customers would consider the price appropriate, and we actually priced it slightly lower than what the research showed. Given that Magento 2 consumes 2X the amount of system resources that Magento 1 consumes, we think that we are priced very fairly with other more expensive options that produce worse results.

All discounts are determined by your partner level in your standard agreement.

Ok. But how do we check how many publicly cache objects an account/domain uses?

Thanks, but we don't have access or cannot ask our customers to get access to check how many publicy cache objects they use.
There has to be an easy way to check this, how else should we know which license to choose?

And what happens if a server are using more than the license we choose?

Hosting industry prices are fixed, and if a Magento customer wants to change host we cannot ask them how much they will be publicly cache on their Magento installation.
And if they use to much we just place them on a server without LiteMage or tell them that we cannot provide them this...

There are only three options. Free/Standard/Large. You can guestimate based upon their stores size, number of languages, currencies and options. e.g. if you have 300 items for sale,and each has 2 configuration options that render different pages, in 10 languages...300X2X10=6000 so standard would be appropriate, but you are nowhere near unlimited.

Once reaches the limit, litemage will stop cache new pages, cached pages are still served from cache, overall, it is still better than no cache.
