Over 15,000 happy customers worldwide trust OpManager Plus
Solarwinds users have experienced constant changes in ownership, security breaches, license revisions, and recurring price hikes in the past decade. OpManager Plus however, has always been private, independent, and boot-strapped. Our focus is on user experience and data security over profits, and our prices are unchanged since 2017.
You can choose the plan that works for you, perpetual or subscription. Solarwinds customers are often forced to choose subscription plans for their observability solution with multi-year lock-in periods. With OpManager Plus, you can monitor what you want, for as long as you want to.
All our IT solutions have transparent pricing tiers, which are listed in our product store pages. Licensing is simple and resource-based (device/server/application/website). Other solutions might offer a lower cost up-front and later present you with hidden costs, but with ManageEngine, what you see up-front is what you need to pay.

Solarwinds observability solutions are priced per resource per month. OpManager Plus' subscription is 68% cheaper than Solarwinds Observability Self-hosted and 84% cheaper than Solarwinds Observability SaaS when the pricing is calculated for 100 devices. In addition, OpManager Plus' perpetual pricing plans offer even-better ROI, with an initial price that's still cheaper than Solarwinds Observability.
