I'm hearing way too many stories very recently about Datadog's extortionate pricing. I wonder if there's something going on and if they're on an aggressive campaign.

It's been happening for a while now - I assume it's more in the news now as companies are starting to tighten budgets for the first time in a long time.

We've [1] been taking advantage of it - counter-positioning against DD by offering low cost and really straightforward pricing while NR and DD both have chosen non-sensical (to me and many others) pricing models.
