Elastic Observability is cost-efficient and provides all features in the enterprise license without asset-based licensing. However, sizing and licensing information could be clearer.
The license is reasonably priced, however, the VMs where we host the solution are extremely expensive, making the overall cost in the public cloud high.
Since we are a huge company, Elastic Observability is an affordable solution for us. However, a startup may face some issues with the solution's pricing.

One needs to pay for the licenses, and it is an annual subscription model right now. We have not gone much deeper into the pricing part right now, but I can speak on this maybe after the quarter, maybe the end of September.
Pricing is one of those situations where the more you use it, the more you pay. However, the cost is variable. And, if used properly, I believe it is rather inexpensive. If you use it badly, you must pay. If one is very cheap, and five is very expensive, I would rate the pricing a two out of five.
I would rate the pricing 4 out of 5. So far, there are just the standard licensing fees. Several of the components are embedded in the license or are even open source. They're even free depending on what you use, which makes it even more appealing.
