What is an Observability Tool?
An observability tool is a tool designed to monitor systems and applications via monitors, logs. Unlike individual monitoring tools, observability tools enable a business to have constant insight and receive continuous feedback from their systems. This approach to monitoring and logging provides actionable information to businesses faster than tools focusing on only monitoring or logging can.
Observability platforms help businesses understand system behavior and predict outages or problems before they occur. Businesses use observability tools to act proactively and prevent system problems. Some tools also work alongside observability tools to supplement the data collected by providing additional network context to improve the depth, accuracy, and quality of the data these tools collect and analyze.
Features and Capabilities
Many observability tools specialize in monitoring or logging, which can impact what features they offer, but below are some of the most common features offered across the board.
- Application monitoring

Observability Platform Comparison
When considering an observability platform, you should consider the following before making a purchasing decision.
- Existing Tools: Many businesses already have a logging tool or an application monitoring tool. Consider what tools your business is already using, and what each observability tool specializes in. If you already have a monitoring tool, it may be a good choice to purchase an observability tool with strong support for logging.
- Feature Needs: Many observability tools offer advanced features, including predictive analytics, while others provide data collection and leave the bulk of the analysis to the users. This can factor into pricing, so consider what your analytics needs are when selecting an observability tool.
- Supported Users: Observability tool pricing is often dependent on how many users will be using the platform. Consider how many users in your organization will make use of the platform so you can choose one that makes sense for you financially.
Pricing Information
Pricing for observability platforms is highly dependent on the features provided by the platform and the number of users supported by the tool. With that in mind, businesses should expect to pay at least $75 per month for an observability tool.
