Full transparency: I work at Coralogix HOWEVER I am speaking as me, Chris, the engineer, and do not reflect the views of Coralogix!!
This business model is only bad for a company if they're not confident that the value they bring isn't enough OR if there is a plan to ratchet up prices, once customers are locked in. If the agreement is transparent, then there's no need for this kind behaviour. That's why at Coralogix, we openly encourage our customers to use an open source integration, and we keep them around with 30 second ticket response times and 40-70% cost savings, without any performance or feature sacrifice :) https://coralogix.com/docs/opentelemetry-using-kubernetes/
