Frequently Asked Questions

How much data transfer do I really need?
Your data transfer will depend on the activity of your account and number of app users. Your account incurs data transfer any time data goes in or out of your database, including import and export, file upload and download, reports, charts, MS Office Plugin, API, etc.

For 70% of our customers, the Standard plan provides adequate data transfer. The table below gives you an idea of what to expect from the monthly reserved data transfer in each plan:

Custom
(250 MB)
Standard
(1 GB)
Number of submissions of a typical record 20,000 80,000
Number of downloads of a 100 KB resume Word file 2,500 10,000
Number of iPhone quality photo uploads
(FileStor is also available for high usage or large files.)
125 500


What if I go over my data transfer limit?

You can monitor your current usage within your account using the Usage Statistics screen.  If you go over your data transfer limit, on-demand rates for your plan type are applied at the end of your monthly billing cycle You can also increase your reserved data transfer by buying additional blocks from within your account or by contacting us. Reserved data transfer is priced significantly less than on-demand data transfer.

Standard Plan $55 per 500 MB $75 per 500 MB
Corporate Plan $100 per 1 GB $140 per 1 GB
