Your current stack
Datadog + PagerDuty + panel + labour
A typical “monitoring stack” — multiple invoices, alert-only for most tools.
- Monitoring (e.g. Datadog) — 10 hosts × £36
- £360
- Paging (e.g. PagerDuty) — 10 users × £32
- £320
- Server panel (e.g. Forge) — 10 × £12
- £120
- Engineering time on incidents — 8h × £75Scripts, runbooks, manual fixes
- £600
- Incumbent total
- £1,400/mo
These lines are what you pay other vendors today — not Reflex features.
Replace with Reflex
Reflex (replacement stack)
Single vendor — detect, diagnose, auto-fix, deploy.
10 servers × £29/server
£1,110/mo less than your current stack
