FluxBilling vs EasyDCIM

EasyDCIM is DCIM-first and usually runs next to a separate biller. FluxBilling holds racks, IPAM and invoices in one PostgreSQL schema, so there is no second licence and no sync job. Plans start at €4.95/mo with DCIM and every payment gateway included. This page compares scope, depth and cost.

In short

EasyDCIM and FluxBilling overlap on data-centre inventory but start from opposite ends. EasyDCIM is DCIM-first — racks, assets, IPMI control, IP address management — and is commonly deployed alongside a separate billing system, which means two licences, two schemas and a synchronisation job between them. FluxBilling puts DCIM and billing in one PostgreSQL schema: a rack unit, the device in it, the IP allocated to it, the service it belongs to and the invoice it appears on are joined records, not synced copies. Racks and U-positions, cabling, IPv4 and IPv6 IPAM, power and PDU monitoring, usage-based metering, EU VAT and every payment gateway are included in every plan. Plans start at €4.95/mo and run to €25/mo, with bare-metal capacity from 5 to 75 servers and extra servers at €0.50 each per month. Self-hosting is a €50 one-time add-on.

Side by side

One platform, or a DCIM tool plus a biller.

The inventory rows are close. The difference is what sits next to them — and whether the invoice for a rack unit lives in the same database as the rack unit.

Where EasyDCIM still wins

Depth in its own lane. EasyDCIM has spent years on inventory and device control specifically, and operators who live in asset lifecycle, IPMI-level device workflows and hardware auditing know exactly which screens they need. If your billing stack already works and the only gap is data-centre inventory, adding FluxBilling means replacing the biller too — a much larger change than buying a DCIM tool that plugs into what you have.

The existing integration path matters as well. EasyDCIM is routinely paired with an established biller, and that combination is well trodden with documented connectors and people who have run it. FluxBilling is a young product, founded in 2025, and asks you to consolidate both halves at once. The trade is fewer moving parts and one licence against a younger platform — worth it when the sync job between your biller and your inventory is already a source of incidents, not worth it when it quietly works.

Looking at this the other way round? The EasyDCIM alternative page covers the migration path, what carries over, and where FluxBilling does not fit.

FAQ

FluxBilling vs EasyDCIM, answered directly.

01.Is FluxBilling a replacement for EasyDCIM?

It replaces the pair, not just one half. EasyDCIM is DCIM-first — racks, assets, IPMI control and IP management — and providers typically run it next to a separate billing system. FluxBilling holds racks and U-positions, cabling, IPv4 and IPv6 IPAM, power and PDU monitoring, invoicing, dunning, multi-currency and EU VAT in a single PostgreSQL schema, so there is one licence and no synchronisation job between inventory and billing.

02.What does "one schema" actually change day to day?

A rack unit, the device installed in it, the IP allocated to that device, the service the customer bought and the invoice line it appears on are joined rows in the same database. Querying them is a join rather than an export. When a device is decommissioned, the IP release, the service state and the billing consequence are the same transaction rather than three systems reconciled on a schedule.

03.How much does FluxBilling cost compared to EasyDCIM plus a biller?

FluxBilling is one flat price per tier: Lite €4.95/mo (10 clients, 5 bare-metal servers), Starter €9.99/mo (150 clients, 25 servers), Professional €14.99/mo (250 clients, 50 servers), Business €25/mo (unlimited clients, 75 servers). Extra bare-metal capacity is €0.50 per server per month. Because billing, DCIM, IPAM, metering and every payment gateway are in the plan, the comparison is against the combined cost of a DCIM licence plus a billing licence plus whatever glue holds them together.

04.Can FluxBilling handle bare metal at scale?

Tiers carry bare-metal capacity from 5 servers on Lite to 75 on Business, with additional servers at €0.50 per server per month. Beyond roughly 20,000 servers or where a contracted SLA is required, pricing moves to a custom quote rather than a published tier.

05.Do I have to migrate everything at once?

No. Two importers ship in core and run separately. The EasyDCIM importer reads your EasyDCIM MySQL database (directly or over an SSH tunnel) and brings across locations, data centres, racks, devices, blades, ports and port connections, with IPMI and SNMP credentials re-encrypted. It runs as one transaction, so a failure or cancel rolls the whole import back, and a re-run updates the records it already matched. IP subnets, VLANs, PDUs and custom fields are not imported. Billing comes across through the WHMCS importer, which shows record counts before it runs, has no dry run, and skips records already imported on a re-run, so you can move inventory first and billing later.

06.Can I try FluxBilling before committing to a plan?

There is no trial licence and no scheduled demo call. A public live demo of both the admin and the client panel is open at demo.fluxbilling.app with no signup — a shared sandbox that resets every 10 minutes. Every plan carries a 14-day refund window and can be cancelled at any time, so the evaluation happens on a real instance with your own racks and clients.
