Compare the whole package.

Standard brings remote access, networking, adaptive fleet monitoring, diagnostics and log collection into one workspace. Every paid plan includes SSO, security monitoring and auditing. Compare the capabilities and allowances in each quoted plan before deciding which ones your fleet can do without.

  • SSO, SCIM and security detections on every paid plan.
  • Pulse, remote diagnostics and log collection on Standard.
  • Compare plan scope, allowances and operating work alongside price.

TailscaleStandardTailscale pricing ↗Included

SSO is available on all plans; SCIM is included on paid plans.

Included

Configuration audit logs on all plans. Network flow logs and log streaming start on Premium.

Device posture

Device posture checks and network connectivity. Network flow logs start on Premium.

Before you choose

Include operators, device count, traffic, log retention and support in each quote. Compare the events recorded and the device data collected against your support workflow.

Dataplicity includes security detections on paid plans. Operational incidents and on-call workflows start at Business+. See security scope for the actions recorded in the audit log.

The starting point is a fleet you can operate.

These capabilities sit together on Standard. Higher plans extend the operating workflow and allowances.

Reach, investigate and understand

Remote shell and standard-protocol networking sit beside diagnostics, collected logs and Pulse. Pulse learns Device Class baselines and identifies unusual devices when enough recent samples are available.

Secure the team and its actions

SSO, SCIM provisioning, security detections and audit activity are included on every paid plan. Business+ operational alerts and on-call workflows are separate capabilities.

Use the included customer surface

Standard includes one branded portal and one downstream customer organisation. Business+ supports multiple portals and customer organisations. Use these capabilities when your product needs them.

qbee

Compare Linux fleet operations, configuration and software delivery. If RAUC is central, both products can participate in that lifecycle; compare the operating workflow around it.

balena

Compare adopting a container-centric device platform with adding fleet services around an existing supported Linux product.

Mender

Compare an OTA-centred lifecycle with the broader fleet and customer-application responsibilities you need to cover.

Losant and application platforms

Compare the customer application and workflow you need to deliver, then include how engineering operates the underlying Linux equipment.

Tailscale

SSO and configuration audit logs are included. Compare your private-networking requirements with Dataplicity Network Connectors and device-and-port policy, then check the adaptive fleet context, diagnostics and collected application logs your operators need.

ngrok

Compare endpoint connectivity with the plan required for your team: SSO/RBAC and governance are paid add-ons on Pay-as-you-go. Include device investigation and monitoring in the scope.

AWS IoT and Greengrass

Compare assembling cloud and edge building blocks with adopting shared fleet and customer-product services.

Test the same real job on the shortlist.

Use the same device count, operators, identity provider, retention period and incident scenario. Check what the quoted plan includes and what you would need to add or operate yourself.

Operate the device

Connect representative hardware, diagnose a fault and see whether the workflow leaves the operator knowing what happened.

Explore this path

Handle change and disconnection

Release only if lifecycle management matters to you; disconnect a test device and inspect what remains known, pending or unavailable.

Explore this path

Complete the customer task

If a customer application is part of the requirement, use separate test customers and complete one real product task end to end.

Explore this path

Fit the package around your product.

Use the capabilities your product needs. A working application or updater does not have to change to use the fleet workspace.

Keep an existing updater or application

Dataplicity can operate the Linux fleet around an existing application and updater. Keep one system authoritative for each update, configuration and physical action.

Explore this path

Choose a narrower scope deliberately

If connectivity alone meets your requirement, a networking tool may be enough. Make that choice with fleet investigation, identity controls, security detections and customer surfaces accounted for.

Know the product boundary

Dataplicity does not replace product-specific sensing, hardware safety, every external business system or unrestricted bespoke software.

Read the technical guide

Choose the scope your fleet needs.

Start with the included package, check the allowances for your fleet and prove one operating workflow on representative devices.
