Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

API Call Charges

high addon

Constellix charges for API calls separately from base subscription fees. Users managing DNS programmatically via API or automation tools will incur additional costs that can add up quickly for frequent operations.

Between 2 months of bills it was $36, for just API calls, not a single query.

Constellix and I believe DNSMadeEasy charge for API calls which annoys me, especially because I'd prefer to do management via some tooling.

Domain Commit/Action Charges

Each domain creation, deletion, or record commit triggers a separate charge beyond the base zone hosting fee. The per-action fee is small but accumulates with scale, particularly affecting users who frequently update DNS records or manage many domains.

48 domain actions (create or delete) was on it's own $32.26

The charge per domain write is small, but it does add up to a certain charge to us in the long run.

Per-Zone Hosting Fees Scale Quickly

medium overage

While the per-zone price is relatively low, hosting costs multiply linearly with domain count. For agencies or businesses managing many client domains, the base zone fees can exceed $20/month for just 80 zones before factoring in query volumes or commits.

even with Constellix, which has a super low per-zone price, it would cost >20$ just to host our 80 zones

Example: True Cost for 25 Users

License (25 × $15 × 12) $4,500/yr
API Call Charges +$15-$20/month
Domain Commit/Action Charges +$0.65-$0.70 per domain action
Per-Zone Hosting Fees Scale Quickly +5-10% of license costs
Estimated Year 1 Total ~$7,650
That's roughly 1.7× the advertised license price. The median Constellix contract is $300/yr across Vendr purchases.
