How does IBM OpenPages calculate pricing?
Customers are charged for IBM OpenPages on a monthly basis. The charge is based on the maximum amount of consumption over the course of the month.
Solutions are charged at the account level. If the same solution is active in multiple environments, customers are charged only once for that solution.
The following table shows some examples of monthly charges.
| Scenario | Charge |
|---|---|
| A customer provisions a single instance on day 1. The customer provisions a second instance on day 15. The customer deprovisions the second instance on day 25. |
The charge for that month is for the two instances. |
| A customer has an instance that is being used as a production environment with ORM active. The customer also has a second instance that is being used as a non-production environment with ORM active. |
The customer is charged only once for the use of that solution. |
| A customer has an instance that is being used as a production environment with ORM active. The customer has a second instance that is being used as a non-production environment with ORM and RCM active. |
The customer is charged for the two solutions: ORM and RCM. |
