Launch offer

Available until December 31, 2026

Up to CA$300 in promotional credit on eligible compute plans.

CA$100

Sign-up promotional credit

Applied to your account automatically at sign-up. Valid for 30 days from the date it is issued.

+CA$200

Spend bonus

After you spend CA$200 on eligible Services, request an additional CA$200 in promotional credit by emailing info@zsoftly.ca. Valid for 60 days once applied.

CA$1.00

Prepaid activation

Prepaid accounts require a minimum CA$1.00 payment to verify and validate the account. The payment is added to account credit and remains available to spend.

Promotional credit applies to every ZCP compute plan. It cannot be applied to private cloud services, professional services, or managed infrastructure services, and does not apply to a limited-period offer that publishes its own eligibility and validity terms. One promotional-credit offer per organization. No cash value, non-transferable, and cannot be combined with other promotions or discounts.

Cloud pricing calculator

Build your own estimate.

Select a category and service to add it to your estimate. Nothing is selected by default, so you can price one storage service, a full cloud deployment, Kubernetes, private cloud, support, or professional services independently.

Your estimate

Add as many services as needed.

No services added yet. Select a category above to begin.

No services selected

Choose a category and service to see your monthly, annual, and one-time pricing here.

How pricing works

Monthly pricing is the primary estimate. Hourly figures appear only where an hourly run-rate is meaningful. Annual figures use recurring monthly pricing multiplied by 12. One-time fees remain separate.

Estimates use the same published ZCP pricing catalogue as the pricing tables. The calculator does not use private conversation pricing or a customer-specific quote.

VM catalogue: compute-only plans (vCPU and RAM) with reserved pricing. Root disk is added per GB on the plan's storage tier.
Storage catalogue: object, block, snapshot, backup, and archive rates per GB-month.
Service catalogue: networking, Kubernetes, observability, support, private cloud, professional services, and managed infrastructure.

Final quotes may vary for custom configurations, private cloud, migration, and professional services.

Billing options

Choose how you want to pay before you provision.

Select Prepaid or Postpaid during signup. Once created, your account remains in that billing mode for its lifetime, so choose the option that fits how you want to manage cloud spend.

Prepaid

Add account credit before you provision. Usage draws down your available balance, and you need enough credit to create new services. Renewals or active usage may leave a negative balance; your next top-up clears that balance first.

Choose prepaid if you:

Want to fund cloud use in advance.
Prefer your available balance to guide new provisioning.
Need a quarterly or longer billing cycle.

Postpaid

Use eligible hourly or monthly services first, then pay the invoice. Postpaid requires a credit card saved through Stripe. When usage reaches the initial billing threshold of CA$100 for personal accounts orCA$300 for organization accounts, an invoice is generated and the saved card is charged automatically. A new threshold cycle then begins. The threshold is not account credit or a permanent cap.

Choose postpaid if you:

Prefer to pay for measured usage after you use it.
Plan to use hourly or monthly services.

Get started

Compute and storage are priced separately

Review and Deploy lists compute, network, public IP, and the block storage root disk as separate lines. You pick the root disk size when you create the server.

Example: ca2c.m (2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM) costs $24.80/mo. Add a 80 GB root disk on b2.g1 (shared replicated NVMe) at $0.14/GB for $11.20/mo. The total is $36/mo, the same as the old bundled plan.

Network plans are $3/mo. Additional public IPs are $3/mo each. The first public IP is billed at the public IP rate on its own line. Existing servers keep their plan and their price. Nothing changes unless you ask.

Featured plans run in Montreal (YUL) on AMD EPYC with b2.g1 (shared replicated NVMe). Intel plans in YUL use the same tier. Prices are in CAD. Plans cover CPU and memory only. You size the root disk at create time and pay per GB. Network and public IP are separate lines. Compute starts at $3.40/mo.Need help choosing a size?

Object Storage

Store as much as you need without watching the meter: uploads and downloads are always free. Drops into your existing tools with no rework. Pay only for what you keep.

The size you choose in the portal sets your maximum capacity. You pay for the data you store, not the full size. For example, a 1 TB plan holding 100 GB is billed for 100 GB.

Storage classes & full rate breakdown

o1 (YOW HDD) · o2 (YUL SSD) · both $0.024/GB/mo

Storage classes by region

Code	Region	Backing media	Price / GB / mo	Best for
o1	YOW	HDD	$0.024	Ottawa: capacity tier. Backups, archives, and bulk data. Plans: o1.10g through o1.10t.
o2	YUL	SATA SSD	$0.024	Montreal: performance tier. Frequently accessed objects, lower latency. Plans: o2.10g through o2.10t.

Both classes are priced identically. o2 (YUL SSD) offers lower latency for frequently accessed objects. o1 (YOW HDD) is right for archives and bulk data.

Block Storage

Data volumes are billed per GB. Shared replicated storage is available in both regions, and host-local storage is available in YUL-1. Root disks are block storage too. Standard volumes start at 10 GB.

Local storage data volumes

Local storage data volumes are available in YUL-1. The available tiers and monthly prices are listed below.

Local volumes remain on one compute host and do not include storage-level replication or automatic host recovery. Use them for cache, scratch data, replicas, or workloads with application-managed recovery. Choose shared replicated storage when the workload needs recovery on another host.

Back up your data or replicate it at the application layer. Backups cost extra and are not part of the local-volume price.

Why local storage costs less

Local NVMe avoids the network path, storage-node processing, and replica acknowledgements required by replicated shared storage. A 100 GB local volume uses about 100 GB of raw disk, while a three-replica shared volume uses about 300 GB before metadata and operating headroom. Local storage is faster and less expensive, but it does not provide storage-level replication, live migration, or automatic host recovery.

Choose local NVMe for application-replicated databases, caches, scratch space, build workloads, and data that can be rebuilt. Choose shared replicated storage for a single VM holding irreplaceable data or workloads that depend on infrastructure-level recovery.

Root disk sizes

You choose the size at create time. The minimum is the template size, about 10 GB for Linux. You can grow a root disk at any time. It never shrinks. Example: ca2c.m at $24.80/mo plus 80 GB on b2.g1 (shared replicated NVMe) at $0.14/GB ($11.20) is $36/mo, the same as the old bundled plan at $36/mo.

Snapshots

Block storage snapshots are billed at $0.05/GB/mo based on the snapshot size.

Images & Backups

Protect your data and standardize your environments without a surprise on the invoice. Our maintained OS images are included at no per-account charge, so you pay only for the backups and custom images you choose to keep.

Public OS templates: Free

Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, Oracle Linux, and Windows Server. Every ZCP-maintained image carries no per-account charge.

Networking

Connect your environment without per-gigabyte anxiety: bandwidth between your services and DNS are always free. Private networking starts free, and a fully routed network with a public IP is just $3/mo. Additional public IPs are $3/mo each. The flat rates make networking a line item you can predict, not reconcile.
