I agree. I can understand the need to change to a data operation meter instead of a total data as the meter but Particle needs to provide a way to better obtain insights into data operations by device. I made reference to other customers saying the same here: Growth Plan and Data Ops limits for Free Plan go live September 8 - #2 by jgskarda
Even if we had some sort of MVP type portal into the data similar to this except counting data operations would be sufficient for me: https://docs.particle.io/tools/product-tools/cellular-usage/
