## Recommendation

In other words, Grafana Cloud is ideal for engineering teams who want open-source observability without operating the stack themselves. Best if you're comfortable with usage-based pricing that scales with metric volume rather than per-host commits.

## Alternative to consider

Zero base fees? Dash0 or OpenObserve. Enterprise commit + AI root-cause? Dynatrace. Full-service predictable? Datadog. Event-based debugging? Honeycomb. Error-first? Sentry. 100GB free tier? New Relic. Splunk-integrated? Splunk Observability Cloud.
