Auvik offers a transparent, device-based pricing model designed to give you full visibility into your network without unexpected costs. Unlike competitors that charge you for every device they discover — or even for every individual metric on those devices — Auvik’s pricing is centered on the number of managed network devices. That means flexible, predictable costs that scale with your needs.
Below, we take a closer look at how Auvik’s pricing works, what’s included, and how to choose the right plan for your network management goals. We also share pricing details for our SaaS Management solution.
How does pricing work at Auvik?
As mentioned, Auvik’s subscription-based pricing model delivers flexibility and simplifies cost prediction, making budgeting for network monitoring straightforward. Costs depend on the number of billable devices in your network — so you pay only for what you actively manage. Please note:
- Auvik’s transparent pricing structure makes it easy for MSPs to explain and pass through costs to clients. This helps maintain clear, consistent billing across multiple environments.
- Larger enterprises and MSPs with more complex environments can request custom pricing plans. These tailored solutions support multi-site operations, specialized monitoring needs, and unique infrastructure requirements.
- Auvik offers simple per-device pricing that scales with your network. There’s a five-device minimum, so even if you’re managing fewer devices, billing starts at five.

The biggest reason for deciding on Auvik was the price, to be honest. Auvik beat the [competitors] pricing by over 50%, easily.

Auvik’s pricing packages and offerings:
Auvik’s product lineup features two primary network management packages, plus specialized monitoring services and SaaS management capabilities. Each offering is designed to address specific network management needs with different pricing implications.
Auvik Network Management (ANM)
The core of Auvik’s offering is our Cloud-Based Network Management & Monitoring Solution, which comes in two tiers:
Essentials Package:
The Essentials package provides the fundamental tools you need for effective network monitoring and management:
- Automated Network Discovery, Mapping, & Inventory: Automatically discover and map your entire network topology and get visual representations of device connections and dependencies. This eliminates the need for manual network documentation.
- Network Monitoring & Alerting: Continuously monitor network performance and health with real-time alerting for potential issues before they impact users.
- Configuration Management: Automatically back up device configurations, track changes, and enable quick configuration restoration in case of device failure.
- Remote Management: Connect to and manage network devices remotely without having to be physically present at the device location.
- Global Dashboards: View all your networks from a single, unified interface with customizable dashboards that highlight critical information.
- APIs & Integrations: Connect Auvik with your existing IT tools, including ticketing systems, documentation platforms, and PSA solutions for streamlined workflows.
Performance Package
The Performance package includes everything in the Essentials package plus advanced network analytics and troubleshooting tools:
- Network Flow Monitoring & Analytics: Gain deep visibility into network traffic patterns, identifying which applications and users are consuming bandwidth.
- Application Visibility Powered by Machine Learning: Use AI to automatically identify applications running on your network without manual configuration.
- Geo IP Tracking: See where your network traffic is going with geographical mapping of IP addresses and communication patterns.
- Forensic Traffic Data: Capture detailed historical traffic data for forensic analysis and troubleshooting of intermittent issues.
- Centralized Syslog Collection: Collect and store system logs from all your network devices in one centralized location for easier analysis.
- Syslog Search, Filter, & Export Capabilities: Search through Syslogs, filter by specific parameters, and export data for reporting.
- Unified Troubleshooting Dashboards: Integrated dashboards that combine network flow, syslog, and performance data for faster issue resolution.
The Essentials and Performance packages provide flexible and easily scalable network visibility. Essentials delivers core functionalities such as topology mapping, monitoring, and remote management, while Performance expands on these fundamentals with advanced troubleshooting through traffic analysis, geo IP tracking, and Syslog collection for large and complex environments.
Both packages offer unlimited device scale and open API integrations. This simplified tiered approach makes it easy to get powerful visibility capabilities aligned with your current infrastructure, but also to switch up to more advanced tools when and if your network needs it.
Auvik Network Management Add-Ons
Server Monitoring
Auvik’s Server Monitoring add-on extends your network visibility by providing key server performance insights — including CPU, memory, disk utilization, and service monitoring. When enabled, servers count as billable assets separate from your network device total.
Server Monitoring uses its own pricing structure based on the number of monitored servers, making it easy to add this capability to either the Essentials or Performance package.
Endpoint Network Monitoring
Auvik’s Endpoint Monitoring add-on extends your network visibility to include user workstations and laptops—no matter where your users are. By installing the Auvik Endpoint Agent, you can monitor network performance at the device level and pinpoint issues affecting connectivity. You’ll also gain access to essential hardware and software inventory details to support better troubleshooting and asset management.
Auvik SaaS Management (ASM)
Auvik SaaS Management is designed to help you discover, monitor, and manage your organization’s SaaS applications. Unlike our network monitoring products, ASM uses a per-user pricing model rather than per-device billing, charged monthly.
Important features of Auvik SaaS Management include:
- Unlimited managed SaaS apps: Monitor and manage all your SaaS applications, regardless of quantity.
- Streamlined SaaS operations: Automate key workflows like onboarding, offboarding, and license optimization to reduce manual effort, improve compliance, and gain full control over your SaaS lifecycle.
- Unlimited devices per user: Each user can access SaaS applications from multiple devices without additional charges.
- Unlimited integrations: Connect ASM with other IT management tools.
- Comprehensive dashboards: Get at-a-glance visibility of all SaaS apps, including a SaaS Health Score and security log reviews.
- Detailed reporting: Access software inventory reports, quarterly business reviews, offboarding checklists, and adoption analysis.
- Proactive alerts: Get notifications pertaining to risky user behavior, vendor security breaches, and SaaS inventory changes.
ASM complements Auvik’s network management tools by extending visibility and control to your cloud applications, giving you complete oversight of both on-premises and cloud-based IT resources.
How much does Auvik cost? Helpful estimates to get you started
If you want to get the most accurate Auvik cost estimate, the best approach is to ask for a custom quote. While pricing varies based on your specific requirements and network environment, looking at a few example scenarios can help you understand how Auvik pricing scales with different network sizes.
Standard Network with Five Billable Devices
For a typical small business network with exactly five billable devices — such as 1 firewall, 1 router, 2 managed switches, and 1 wireless controller — plus numerous non-billable devices, including access points, workstations, and printers, you would pay $175 per month ($35 × 5), or $2,100 annually. This provides complete monitoring and management of your entire network infrastructure, regardless of how many non-billable devices you have connected.
Multi-Site Network with 100 Billable Devices
As a rough example, say you’re managing a larger or distributed environment — 20 similar locations, each with five billable devices, so about 100 billable devices total. Rather than scaling linearly to $40,000/year, Auvik’s pricing adjusts with volume, and you could expect to pay closer to $12,000–$18,000 per year, or roughly $50–$75 per site monthly.

I’m only disappointed that I didn’t find and adopt [Auvik] sooner than I did. We went through many other monitoring solutions, and the pricing was either complicated or nickeled and dimed us at every turn
