What Beszel does
Beszel shows CPU, memory, disk and network of your servers over time and alerts you when thresholds are crossed.
Monitored machines report to the hub through a small agent — this pod is the hub.
CPU, RAM, disk and network over time- Docker containers per machine
- Alerts by email and webhook
- Tiny agent, hardly any load
Good to know before the first start. This pod is the hub. For data to appear, install the Beszel agent on every machine you want to monitor and add it in the hub.
Beszel instead of Datadog

Common questions
At the recommended size (0.25 cores · 0.5 GB RAM · 5 GB Storage) about €1.67 a month, billed by the hour. Stop Beszel and you only pay for storage.
No. No server, no Docker, no terminal commands. You click start and Beszel runs. Updates are tested on our own instances first and then rolled out.
In your own Beszel instance on servers in Germany and France; bulk storage sits in Frankfurt. Add your own S3 bucket and we back up there daily, encrypted.
Beszel is open source and keeps running on your own server. You fetch the files over a time-limited SFTP access and reach the database with the credentials from the dashboard.
