| Starting price | Published usage-based pricing available from the vendor (varies by plan and commitment) | Masking features are typically included with platform usage; standalone masking pricing is not consistently published | Obfuscation features are provided as part of packaged tiers (included in specific subscription tiers) |
| Recommended for | Organizations already standardized on Datadog that need detection, classification, and workflow across telemetry | Organizations that prioritize masking at capture so sensitive data does not leave the monitored environment | Organizations that prefer default obfuscation plus custom rules as part of a packaged observability tier |
| Key capabilities | Integrated scanning across logs, traces, RUM, and events; rule library; redact/hash/mask actions; issue tracking and remediation workflows | Emphasis on capture-side masking and privacy settings to prevent sensitive data leaving the environment | Automatic obfuscation enabled for certain fields by default, plus custom obfuscation rules in higher tiers |
| Key limitations | In-cloud mode performs redaction after telemetry upload; platform costs can be difficult to predict without governance | Implementation complexity and configuration limitations can exist; pricing may be packaged with broader platform costs | Some obfuscation capabilities may require higher-tier packaging and have usage limits |
