I have like 13 hosts added to the inventory and I think it's like 8 or 16GB per month (out of 100GB). So I take that to mean you can monitor a ton on a single server and no worries of overage. Maybe it averages out to 100 servers on their free tier, give or take.
Awesome thank you for the info!!
first of all, you need to confirm what type of monitoring you need. From the "check uptime" perspective you can set up a simple cron for the "uptime" command and send an email with that, but I doubt it's what you are trying to achieve. So in fact with full server monitoring best way is to do that with Agents type. It means that all information is sent by agents to the master server/service so you can have a centralized system to store all that data(resources, traffic monitoring, etc.). That system/service can be done through 2 methods:

I have been using this for a few years and it does the job
Have u try nodequery?
You can do simple monitoring yourself with a script and a cron daemon. Are you asking for monitoring from different parts of the world?
NodeQuery is dead AFAIK?
Well, up to 10 servers works. They say to contact them and they'll increase it (20 in OP), but who knows if they respond anymore.

Nagios, no doubt!
Zabbix is good, have had a good experience with using that for monitoring. I know a few large hosting providers use it as well.
