Update - datadog vs sentry #1805
Conversation

Items to verify: Datadog log management pricing is inaccurate. The article states "$1.27/million log events" but the current 2025 pricing follows a two-part system: $0.10 per GB for log ingestion plus $1.70 per million log events for indexing (making logs searchable for 15 days). The article oversimplifies the pricing structure and uses outdated figures. Custom metrics pricing for Datadog is significantly wrong. The article claims "~$5 per custom metric" but the actual current pricing is $0.05 per custom metric beyond baseline periods, which is 100x less than stated in the article. Sentry pricing information appears to be generalized and may not reflect current 2025 pricing accurately. While the article mentions Team plan at $26/month for up to 50K errors, current research shows pricing varies and should be verified against Sentry's current pricing page for accuracy. OpenTelemetry support claims are outdated for both platforms. The article describes Datadog's OpenTelemetry support as "native support in beta for Pro and Enterprise customers" and Sentry as having "basic integration" and "limited scope." However, by 2025, both platforms have mature, native OpenTelemetry integrations. Datadog provides full OTLP endpoint availability and native support built into the Datadog Agent, while Sentry offers comprehensive OpenTelemetry SDK integrations with full OTLP support for unified error tracking and performance monitoring. The article's characterization of both platforms having "limited OpenTelemetry support compared to dedicated observability platforms" is inaccurate for 2025. Both Datadog and Sentry have evolved to provide robust, native OpenTelemetry integrations that are no longer in beta or limited status. |
