I have 30 workers, there's no way for me to test this out for a month before committing the most expensive package? I don't see the value in monitoring one graphics card, even as a test. Why does it cost more PER worker? You only have to access the API page once every 20 minutes and store the data for each worker.
The free account is designed to allow an individual to "taste" the services we provide. It was based around the request of a tester to have an account for ( and I quote ) "the dude in his dorm that wants to know if his gaming box stops making him money while he is f*****g off down the hall"
The cost is based on a per worker basis from the aspect of storage of their data, and the statistical "crunching" that must be done for each one.
It's not bad idea to have a "full trial", so here is what I did:
All paid accounts have a "provisional period" of 2 hours to allow for delays in getting confirmations of payments. A provisional account has 15 minute updates, and notifications turned off, but all other features of the account.
I've extended the provisional status time window to three days to allow for a trial. The copy on the join page will be edited this afternoon.
Thanks for the advice!
The spot pirce is still based on MtGox ? Why isn't it based on TradeHill?
That was an oversight, and has been corrected. Thanks for pointing it out.
Both the spot price and weighted averages are provided by
Bitcoincharts.com , which we thank them for.
I would be happy to evaluate this and share what I think about it if I could monitor my entire network for a week or two.
Thanks
Please give the new 3 day trial a go... I would think that 3 days is more then enough time to decide if there is value in the services we provide.
