Choosing Practical Package Limits for Hosted Accounts
Package limits should reflect a clear service model. When limits are inconsistent, both support handling and customer expectations become harder to manage.
Evaluation Points
- Compare actual usage trends with the advertised service tier.
- Account for application type, not only customer count.
- Review whether repeated overages are due to misconfiguration, abuse, or genuine growth.
- Document exceptions so future support actions remain consistent.
Service Discipline
Practical limits create predictability. Predictability reduces disputes, emergency adjustments, and avoidable operational exceptions.
