Datadog Network Monitoring: Network Path added as a pivot destination
What happened
Between the Dec 29, 2025 and Mar 30, 2026 captures of Datadog's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Cloud Network Monitoring's 'When Combined with Other Plans' section now lists Network Path as a pivot destination alongside Infrastructure, APM, and Logs — previously it read 'Pivot seamlessly to Infrastructure, APM and Logs'. In detail: Cloud Network Monitoring 'When Combined with Other Plans' section updated to include Network Path as a pivot destination alongside Infrastructure, APM, and Logs. Pulse files it as a product change (feature added) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Jun 14, 2026) lists Cloud Network Monitoring at $5, Network Path at $5, Network Device Monitoring at $7, NetFlow Monitoring (60-day Retention) at $0.75 and NetFlow Monitoring (30-day Retention) at $0.65.
It lands 24 days after Datadog's previous change, "Datadog Network Monitoring reveals Network Path pricing at $5 per 1K tests" (Mar 11, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Datadog Network Monitoring launches Data Observability suite with Quality Moni" (Week 3, 2026). Datadog has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window New Relic, Dynatrace, Grafana, Elastic and Sumologic also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
