Datadog launches Experiments product at $275 per experiment
What happened
Between the Mar 30, 2026 and Apr 6, 2026 captures of Datadog's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: New 'Experiments' product added to pricing page at $275/experiment launched annually (up to 1M MFCRs), $350 on-demand. Billed once experiment reaches 3 days and 500 subjects. Pulse files it as a packaging change (new plan) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 28, 2026) lists Infrastructure Pro at $15, Infrastructure DevSecOps Pro at $22, Infrastructure Enterprise at $23, Infrastructure DevSecOps Enterprise at $34 and Observability Pipelines at $0.1.
It lands 3 days after Datadog's previous change, "Datadog Cloud-cost-management unveils tiered pricing, shifting to spend-based model" (Apr 6, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Datadog Cloud SIEM Doubles Detection Rules to 800+, Adds AI Analyst" (Mar 31, 2026), "Datadog Enterprise Adds Governance Console and New Admin Controls" (Apr 4, 2026) and "Datadog: Governance Console added to Application Security Management Enterprise" (Apr 11, 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.
