Pricing Issues Reported by Users
Costs did not scale to $0 like truly serverless
Despite being 'serverless,' costs did not 'scale to $0' like other serverless offerings. Once exceeding free tier, users faced flat monthly rate + overage model - paying every month regardless of usage. Users complained about being 'forced to jump to higher tier' for features.
Dashboard usage consumed operations
Using Fauna Dashboard to navigate databases and run FQL queries 'consumes read, write, and compute operations.' Every navigation or browser refresh executed queries against quotas, adding unexpected costs.
