PRICING
Pricing
Although there are no charges for simply creating a GoGrid account, your cloud hosting charges will vary depending on the services you use. Typical charges include cloud server usage and outbound data transfer usage charges. For example, a pay-as-you-go customer might deploy an extra-small (.5 GB) cloud server that costs $.04 per hour, and transfer from the server would cost as little as $.08 per GB outbound.

TRADITIONAL VS. CLOUD
| Traditional Hosting | Cloud Infrastructure |
 |
 |
| With traditional hardware, you must buy based on your peak traffic periods, incur up-front capital expenditures, and maintain your investment over time. Provisioning traditional infrastructure can take weeks to months, and because your business is dynamic, predicting the necessary amount of infrastructure can be difficult. Most important, trying to hit the sweet spot without overspending or under-provisioning is risky. | By deploying infrastructure in the GoGrid cloud, you can reduce the time required from months to minutes. With this approach, you not only eliminate the up-front fixed investment, but you only pay for the resources actually used. This approach gives you more control over your IT resources and lets you meet peak loads with on-demand scalability. |
