We recently switched from the older style loggers to the MX1101 after Onset stopped supporting the old USB shuttle. We opted to not subscribe to their service and instead continue to have staff collect the readings once a month as part of our IPM program. Downloading
 the data via Bluetooth using the smartphone app works fairly well and we were pleased that it doesn't require a log in. This requires some additional staff time and either a dedicated device or staff willing to use their personal devices, but it's a significant
 savings vs. the remote monitoring. We have just over two dozen loggers spread across several locations. </div>

Hello folks,</div>
<div style="direction:ltr;font-family:Aptos,Aptos_EmbeddedFont,Aptos_MSFontService,Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
Onset recently announced its HOBOlink web climate monitoring integration service will be re-launching, and along with a new interface, there are planned cost changes for US customers. Notably, instead of $75/year for each active MX Gateway (the device that
 gathers logger bluetooth signals and sends them to the web), Onset will be charging
<b>$25 per HOBO logger per year</b> that communicates with the HOBOlink website. <br>
<br>
Our institution uses several dozen HOBO MX1101 loggers to monitor gallery and collections storage areas, which communicate via a small number of MX Gateways. The new fee structure represents a major cost increase to us, and I imagine others here who use HOBOs
 and the HOBOlink site to view and export data. </div>

Is anyone else considering shifting to a different monitoring system? A different method of uploading data with existing loggers, to avoid these yearly fees? </div>

I communicated with our Onset reps about how disruptive this change would be for us, and I suggest others facing price increases do the same - our rep indicated he'd see if there's enough desire for different pricing options for customers like us. </div>
