Russ, one thing to note is that the SeeFusion pricing actually uses "per server" to really mean "per instance." So if you have the max of what you said your infrastructure might be (2 servers * 3 instances of CF), you would have 6 instances times $299, which is $1,794 (assuming you get the Enterprise license, which would make sense since you're monitoring multiple instances). Contrast that with FusionReactor, which is truly licensed per physical server (where you can monitor as many instances as you like), you'd have 2 servers times $599, which is $1,198 (again, assuming the Enterprise edition so that you can monitor multiple instances). That's a $596 savings. Once you're past the price point, you need to get into a feature comparison, which I don't fully have mapped out yet.
