In what countries do we support telephony features? Our list of available countries is extensive and spans across the globe. We continue to grow in availability zones daily.

Datadog: I do not understand the pricing model, please help me estimate my bills
The DataDog pricing model is actually pretty easy. For 500 hosts or less, you just sign over your company and all its assets to them. If >500 hosts, you need to additionally raise VC money. More on reddit.com

Pricing for incident management tools (Firehydrant, Rootly, Incident.io)
Always worth noting that Rootly has been documented in stealing from Firehydrant to the point that their documentation at one point was word-for-word the same. When they were called out on this they deleted their documentation site and never apologized or acknowledged anything publicly. I don't trust them. The people at Firehydrant, Inicident.io, and Jeli are all great humans. More on reddit.com

Datadog on call
Datadog got real pricy after they went public so I would be warry of moving to them. They will probly be willing to undercut pager duty to get you locked in but I wouldn't trust them to keep that price low. More on reddit.com

r/devops on Reddit: Datadog: I do not understand the pricing model, please help me estimate my bills
December 30, 2022 -

Hi all,
I am running a small scale home lab and I have a need for log management and email alerting. It is very very basic and very small scale, we are talking ~100 log entries a day and 1 Monitor job to look for some keywords and send me emails notifications.

Up till now I've been running my own EFK stack (plus Elastalert) but it's way too powerful and complex for my use case.

I have tried Datadog and was able to build the log management and email alerting I needed in a few hours starting from scratch and not nowing the plaform. Everything seems to work perfectly and I must say I am quite happy with the product.

My problem is: I have no idea how much this is going to cost me. The description of the plans are not clear, or rather I don't know how to read it.

For now I am using the Trial subscription and I still have 14 days in front of me. What will happen when the trial finishes ?

The Free plan does not include Logs nor Monitors, so I am assuming I need the Pro plan, is this correct?

I see on the pricing page of the Pro plan two items for "Log Ingestion" and "Indexed Logs", what is the difference between the two? I do not see a price item for my log "Monitor" - is this included somewhere else?

Then I sort of remember seeing somewhere that you have to have minimum one host activated and indeed after creating my account I needed to connect one agent before being able to do anything. Now I have disabled my host so that there is nothing showing under "Infrastructure". Am I still going to be charged for 1 host at 15$/mo ?

Thank you for your help.

January 15, 2025 - Many organizations, from startups to large enterprises, still struggle with their on-call experience, which leads to longer resolution times and lower employee retention rates.

Having a single tool to observe your tech stack, detect issues quickly, and page the right people at the right time is crucial. That’s why we’ve introduced Datadog On-Call, now generally available.
