Frequently Asked Questions

What is a node?

A node is any device running the Expanso agent-remote locations, on-prem servers, cloud instances, or IoT devices. Nodes filter, transform, and govern data at the source before sending to downstream platforms.

How does billing work?

For Pro, you pay $50 per active node per month. No hidden fees, volume charges, or cluster fees. For Enterprise, we create custom pricing based on your scale and requirements. Pilot packages are one-time or annual fees. First 5 nodes are always free.

What's the difference between packages and ongoing plans?

Pilot packages (Starter & Accelerator) are time-boxed programs with savings guarantees, data audits, and white-glove support-designed to prove value fast. Ongoing plans (Free, Pro, Enterprise) are flexible monthly/annual subscriptions for long-term deployment.

Can I switch from a package to an ongoing plan?

Absolutely! Most Starter customers transition to Pro after their 90-day pilot. Accelerator customers typically move to Enterprise with volume discounts after year one. We make transitions seamless with no data migration needed.

How does the ROI guarantee work?

For Starter: We measure your platform costs (Snowflake, Databricks, Splunk, etc.) at baseline, then again at 60 and 90 days. If total savings < $1,000, we issue a full refund. For Accelerator: If you don't achieve 25%+ platform cost reduction after 12 months, we extend support and your success engineer free until you do (up to 6 additional months).

What happens during the 30-day data audit?

Our team maps your complete data flow across sources, analyzes current platform costs vs. projected savings with Expanso, identifies volume reduction opportunities, assesses compliance gaps, and delivers a custom deployment roadmap. This $10k service is included in the Accelerator package.

Can I switch between plans?

Yes! Start with Free or a pilot package, then upgrade to Pro or Enterprise as your needs grow. Many customers start with a pilot (5-50 nodes) to validate value, then scale to Enterprise for dedicated support and custom features.

What counts as an 'active node'?

An active node is any node registered and processing data during the billing period. You only pay for nodes actively filtering, transforming, or governing data upstream.

Do you offer volume discounts?

Volume discounts are available through our Enterprise plan. Talk to our team to discuss custom pricing for deployments with 500+ nodes.

What kind of support is included?

Free includes community support via GitHub and Slack. Pro adds email support. Pilot packages include guided deployment (Starter) or dedicated success engineer (Accelerator). Enterprise includes 24/7 priority support (<1 hour SLA) with dedicated success engineer and custom processor development (48-hour turnaround).

Can I try before I buy?

Yes! Start free with up to 5 nodes, or choose the Starter Package ($1k, 90 days, ROI guarantee) for a risk-free pilot on production workloads. Both options let you validate value before committing to ongoing plans.

What's included in Enterprise training?

Enterprise customers receive customized training sessions, hands-on workshops for your team, architecture reviews, and ongoing guidance from a dedicated success engineer to accelerate deployment and optimize performance. Accelerator package includes 2 workshops for up to 20 people each.

How does Expanso pricing compare to platform costs?

Expanso processes data upstream for pennies on the dollar compared to centralized platform costs. Most customers see significant value from improved team velocity, automated compliance, and better platform performance-often validating ROI within 3-6 months. Pilot packages are designed to prove this fast.

What if I need custom processors or integrations?

Enterprise customers get custom processor development with 48-hour turnaround. Accelerator package includes 2 custom processors. If you need a connector we don't have, we'll build it. Pro customers can request custom processors-we'll work with you to find the right solution.
