| Starting Price (publicly shown) | Third-party comparisons and vendor materials indicate usage-based ingestion pricing for certain editions; treat as directional. | Public materials show directional starting figures for infrastructure tiers. | Directional published starts-at figures for observability tiers in public vendor materials. |
| Best For | Log analytics and Cloud SIEM workflows; teams focused on search across telemetry and security use cases. | Broad observability across APM/infra/logs and many add-on modules. | Buyers aligned to Splunk’s observability suite and ecosystem; entity-based pricing may suit some environments. |
