What happened

Between the Sep 28, 2026 and Oct 5, 2026 captures of Datadog's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Workflow Automation executions triggered from security findings and signals are now unlimited and free on CSM Pro and Enterprise, replacing the prior metered allotments of 5 and 20 executions per host per month. In detail: Workflow Automation moved from metered allotments (5 executions/host/month for CSM Pro, 20 for CSM Enterprise) to unlimited free executions when triggered from security findings and signals, for both plans. Pulse files it as a packaging change (limit increase) with an upward direction. The current page lists CSM Pro at $10 and CSM Enterprise at $25.

It lands 63 days after Datadog's previous change, "Datadog Cloud Security Management CSM: CoScreen collaboration feature removed" (Aug 3, 2026). Datadog has been tracked since 2023-11-14.

In the same window Elastic, Grafana, Sumologic and Splunk also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
