Pricing is available at https://www.crunchydata.com/pricing/calculator. To add-on to that, we really liked the Fly pricing model where if you consumed less than X we wouldn't charge you. Recently we introduced a $10 a month plan and if you suspend the database while developing and your bill is under $5 you won't get charged.

Thanks I did find it after I commented; I had to follow two buttons from the front-page that were the same color as the background though ("Learn More" -> "Check out pricing" [which was a contrasting color] -> "View Pricing Breakdown")

[edit]

Also other managed DB hosts have similar anti-funnels for pricing, so I'm not trying to pick on Crunchy Data.

Thanks for the feedback, we can do better. Will see if we can get fixed this week.

Another thing you can improve is to communicate clearly how many databases a selected tier can contain. Another frequent question of mine: can a cluster size be changed later?

? If you look under the "Cloud" menu on the main nav, it's the 3rd & 4th items down.

1. I didn't check the "Cloud" menu the first time.

2. The 3rd item on there goes to the "pricing" page that doesn't actually tell you the pricing (it says "Starting from $10/mo" but you need to scroll down and click through to get to the actual pricing table) :/

3. The 4th item "pricing calculator" is great; I just didn't find it.
