Neo4j Aura review

Paid Neo4j Aura plans start at $65 a month. That is the listed entry price, and it sits well above the €5.83 median for entry price across the site. Teams that only need to evaluate a graph model can stay on the free tier first.

Yes. A free tier is available on Neo4j Aura, so a team can run a small graph without moving to a paid plan. The free tier suits a proof of concept, while sustained workloads land on the paid tier, where Neo4j Aura plans start at $65 a month.

The engine list for Neo4j Aura names graph only. That suits a data model built from connected records and relationship queries, and it means a stack needing other engine types has to place them elsewhere. Pricing for the graph plans starts at $65 a month.

Backup retention on Neo4j Aura is 7 days. That is the stated window, so a team needing longer replay history has to plan its own export path before it matters. Engine coverage does not widen this, since the list names graph only.

RisingWave lists $0.23, UCloud lists $0.96 and Vultr lists $2.50 as starting prices, all below the $65 entry for Neo4j Aura. The Neo4j Aura answer to a lower start is the free tier and the graph only engine list, graph, for teams that need relationship queries.

Neo4j Aura is aimed at teams whose data is a graph of connected records and who want a database built around relationship queries, since the engine list names graph only. It also suits readers who can start on the free tier and treat the $65 paid entry as a later decision rather than an early commitment.

The published plan price is $65 a month. Introductory and renewal pricing are not split out, so treat $65 as the starting figure for a paid plan. The free tier is the other side of that coin, since it lets a team run a graph before a paid commitment.
