Pricing that fits a 10-rack room
DC Sim has two licenses and a partner program. Design is one-time per project: $490 for up to 20 racks, $1,490 up to 100, $3,900 above that, three months per project. Monitor is about $5 per rack per month with a $49 minimum. Partners earn a 30 % margin. Today every license starts with a walkthrough on your own file; self-serve accounts and card checkout are on the roadmap. Prices in USD, excluding VAT.
Typical DCIM pricing: $125 per month minimums and $230–330 per rack per year are typical. Simulation tools for engineers start at several thousand dollars per seat per year and need an engineer; Monitor needs a spreadsheet.
- "I am planning a room or a new row." Design. When it goes live, move to Monitor with three months free.
- "I run a room and want to see it, fail things and report on it." Monitor.
- "I do this for customers." Partner: Design per project at partner price, a share of Monitor.
- CFD-grade airflow: not offered. Thermal values come from a zonal model and are labelled estimated.
- AI design assistant, a BOM export, live connectors beyond Zabbix and NetBox, partner multi-customer console Roadmap
- Self-serve accounts and card checkout Roadmap; on-prem packaging (Enterprise, later).
How is Monitor counted?
Per rack in the model, billed monthly, minimum $49. Empty racks in a design do not count until the room goes live.
Can I buy online today?
Not yet. Every license starts with a walkthrough on your own file. Self-serve accounts and card checkout are on the roadmap.
What does "3 months per project" mean for Design?
A Design license covers one project for three months of active design; extensions are available if the project runs longer.
Can I switch from Design to Monitor?
Yes. The design becomes the twin of the running room, and Design customers get the first three months of Monitor free.
What happens to my data if I stop?
You can export the model as Excel and ask for deletion; deletion is confirmed within 30 days.
Is the AI design assistant extra?
No. When it ships it is included in the Design license at no extra cost, and Design customers get it first as early access.
Do partners get a discount on Design?
Yes, a partner price per project under the partner agreement, so the twin can be in the proposal before the customer buys.
How does this compare with typical DCIM pricing?
Typical DCIM pricing starts at about $125 per month and runs $230–330 per rack per year. Monitor is $5 per rack per month with a $49 minimum, and Design is one-time per project. DC Sim sits on top of DCIM and monitoring rather than replacing them.
