Chronosphere Pricing Overview

edit

Chronosphere has not provided pricing information for this product or service. This is common practice for software sellers and service providers. Contact Chronosphere to obtain current pricing.

Chronosphere has a unique pricing model that is different from others out there. Using the Chronosphere control plane, customers decide how much observability data (metrics and traces) they want to retain. They can choose to aggregate, roll-up, and set retention based on environment and business needs. Customers are only charged on the volume of observability data they retain, instead of all of the data collected. This puts customers in control of their Chronosphere bill. If you’ve set your capacity at 50k transformed writes/sec, we will never bill you for more than that. Every organization’s needs are very different, so we want to work with you to drive the right value at the right price, without the fear of overages or huge price hikes when your data complexity inevitably grows.

Pricing information for Chronosphere is supplied by the software provider or retrieved from publicly accessible pricing materials. Final cost negotiations to purchase Chronosphere must be conducted with the seller.

"An exceptional, pragmatic observability platform"

5/5

What do you like best about Chronosphere?

Our mid-sized startup was looking for more than our hyperscaler could provide, but we knew from experience that the big dog in this space would lead to expensive, painful tradeoffs. After (skeptically) evaluating Chronosphere I am happily convinced that there is a better option. My favorite things:

* Support: knowledgeable, friendly support from day one. I assumed this was pre-contract wooing, but one year later, support is as great as ever.

* Ergonomics: tools are only useful if they're used. Their interfaces load quickly and make sense, and as a result, our engineers are happy to use them.

* Operations: the product just works; the undifferentiated heavy lifting is handled behind the scenes, without incident.

* Cost: they include tools to identify and tame anomalous and low-value data, leading to lower costs without sacrificing signal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Chronosphere?

* Learning PromQL was a little painful. However, ChatGPT is great with PromQL, and that has smoothed the learning curve for new engineers.

* Prometheus histograms are clunky. It sounds like this may be addressed soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Chronosphere is a company that helps you walk through the complexity of Observability"

4/5

What do you like best about Chronosphere?

Coming from a system with no metrics aggregation, Chronosphere was a breath of fresh air using the Prometheus model to scrape metrics, instantly providing aggregation of metrics and cost savings. The Chronosphere team was and continues to provide excellent support to help with migration and optimize our configuration to maximize utilization and reduce cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Chronosphere?

There are a couple of components to cost. Data processing and data persistence. The impact of data processing cost was not realized during the POC with Chronosphere; however, the excellent support provided by Chronosphere helped us mitigate this issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Chronosphere solving and how is that benefiting you?

As our company scales, our legacy metrics system could not handle the load without aggregation. Chronosphere uses an industry-standard model(Prometheus) with aggregating metrics built in and storing metrics as time series. This makes querying the data faster compared with our legacy system and also saves us money due to the reduction of the total number of data points that persisted Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
