¹ Datadog list prices, Log Management, annual-commit tier as of 2026-05-30: ingest $0.10/GB, Standard Indexing $1.70/M events at 15-day retention, log forwarding $0.25/GB outbound. On-demand is ~50% higher. 7-day and 30-day Standard Indexing are not listed — contact sales. A single dollar figure for 1.5 TB requires an events-per-GB assumption Datadog does not publish; we omit it rather than fabricate one. Source: datadoghq.com/pricing/?product=log-management.

02FAQ

Pricing questions, answered.

What does the 14-day trial include?

Every detector, every feature, full AI root cause analysis. Up to 1.5 TB of ingest over the 14 days — the same volume as Team's monthly cap, so you can stress-test the product on real production logs. No credit card required — if you don't upgrade, the trial simply ends, nothing owed.

What happens when the trial ends?

On day 13 we email you to add a card. On day 15, if no card is on file, ingest pauses and your tenant becomes read-only. Existing logs stay searchable for the duration of your retention window. Add a card any time to resume ingest as a paid Team customer.

When should I upgrade to Team vs Growth?

Team ($500/mo, or $5,400/yr — save 10%) is the on-ramp: 1.5 TB/month, 30-day retention, 10 users, 1,200 AI root-cause analyses/month. Most production teams start here. Growth ($1,800/mo, or $19,440/yr — save 10%) adds SSO, audit log, unlimited users, and 2.5× the AI budget (3,000 root-cause analyses/month) — when compliance asks questions, when you have multiple teams on call, or when one tenant fires more than ~50 alerts/day.

When do I need Custom?

When you need custom retention beyond 30 days, dedicated support, a contractual SLA, or a self-hosted deployment. SAML-based SSO is on our roadmap. Starts at $5,000/mo with custom pricing scoped per-deal. SOC2 certification is in progress; we'll re-tier this as Enterprise once SOC2 ships.

What if I get a traffic spike?

Logs keep flowing. Nothing gets dropped during an incident. Overage is billed per GB above your plan's monthly volume at a transparent rate shown on your billing dashboard. Set budget alerts to see it in real time.

Will I get surprise bills?

No. Flat monthly pricing with included volume. No per-event fees. No per-query fees. No per-host charges. No cardinality tax — log as many unique fields as you want. Overage is per-GB, posted daily.

How does the AI work?

Two layers. Statistical detectors find problems automatically — these run on every tier including the trial. AI explanations layer on top: a 2–3 sentence root-cause hypothesis cited to your actual log lines. AI budgets are quoted in published monthly counts (see Team / Growth cards above) and sized so AI cost never exceeds 5% of your subscription. Your log content is never used to train models.

What log formats are supported?

Elasticsearch bulk, Loki push, OTLP (OpenTelemetry), FluentBit, Fluentd, syslog (RFC 5424, 3164, Cisco, Fortinet, Palo Alto), CloudWatch subscription filters, and raw JSON over HTTP. If you can POST, you can send to Epok.

Can I run Epok alongside Datadog or Splunk during the trial?

Yes — dual-shipping is the recommended way to evaluate. Most log shippers (FluentBit, Vector, Promtail, OTLP collector) support multiple sinks. Send the same log stream to both products, compare what each catches, and switch when you're convinced. No DNS changes, no SDK changes.

What happens to my data if I leave?

Tenant-scoped delete on request. Standard data export is free up to 1× your monthly ingest volume per month (so a Team customer can export 1.5 TB / month at no extra cost). Above that, export is $0.025/GB — covers our egress + processing cost without surprise. No DNS changes, no SDK changes: you keep your shippers, your LogsQL queries, and your alert rules in your own config.

What are the AI caps and how were they set?

Team includes 1,200 AI root-cause analyses per month (about 40 per day), 600 playbook imports, and 4,200 smaller AI assists for things like search, suggestions, and smart titles. Growth scales that 2.5×. The caps are sized so AI cost to us never exceeds 5% of what you pay — measured per-call costs come from our 2026-05-29 benchmark on real prod workloads. If you consistently hit the cap, that's a signal to talk about Custom tier where caps are negotiated per-deal.

How do you handle alert acknowledgement and unacked alerts?

Operators acknowledge an alert with an optional comment and a timeout (default 30 minutes, up to 24 hours). Acknowledgement pauses severity escalation — the alert stops re-paging the channel for the timeout window. If the underlying condition is still firing when the timeout expires, the alert un-acks itself and escalation resumes. Unacked critical alerts re-page on a configurable cadence (default: when the alert re-fires ≥4 times OR has been firing >60 minutes, whichever comes first). Bulk-acknowledge handles burst incidents (up to 500 alerts in one call). Every ack, un-ack, and escalation writes to the per-alert activity log with operator identity, comment, and timestamp — so a postmortem can reconstruct who took the alert and when. Snooze is separate from ack: snooze suppresses notifications entirely for a window (useful for known-maintenance), ack keeps the alert visible but tells the system 'someone owns this.'
