Outrageous Pricing

This makes my head spin.

Companies like Webmetrics offer online services like our website monitoring solution WebWatchBot, however, the cost is simply outrageous.

To monitor 3 (three) URLs with their product costs $30/month. Ok, that's not cheap, but not expensive either. The real cost comes in when you have to do something more complicated.

The cost of monitoring a transaction, that is, monitor step-by-step actions on a website such as filling out forms, clicking links, etc. costs between $330 and $750 a month! Wow.

For basic server monitoring, our product WebWatchBot sure seems like a sweet deal. I hope no one out there is paying $330/month. Geez.
