The pricing is quite acceptable and scalable. For our service, it was around 300 to 600 euros per month, which was acceptable for our customers. We could scale up for better performance and scale down when needed.
MongoDB Atlas offers various options based on your needs. It can accommodate both, whether you require the enterprise version with advanced features or prefer to start with an open trial version.
The price of this solution is competitive compared to the other cloud-based database services. There is also a free tier available that provides up to 512 MB of storage and allows users to experiment with the service before committing to a paid plan. For licensing, if we use it to build an application, we may be required to release the source code of our application under SSPL. The SSPL is a copyleft license that requires users who offer this solution as a service to release the source code of their application under the same license.

For me, MongoDB Atlas could be expensive as every cloud service because I don't have many other terms of comparison, but I think it is not so expensive for customers. In the end, they may be able to save money rather than buy it on-premise however, on-premise, they do not have access to all the features that Atlas exposes. The costs are similar to having a cloud provider and if we look at the short-term, there is a real saving of money investing in their service instead of making it on-prem in the same scenario.
MongoDB Atlas is more cost-effective than Amazon DocumentDB. It also has a pay-as-you-go pricing model. Apart from the standard licensing cost, you must also pay to get MongoDB Atlas technical support, which is expensive. MongoDB Atlas has different pricing models, so pricing is five out of ten for storing the data. The support is expensive, so that's three out of ten. For data updates, I'd give the price seven out of ten.
Comparing the price between the MongoDB and Microsoft SQL Server, we are using the enterprise edition of Microsoft SQL Server, which is more expensive than MongoDB. I would rate the price of MongoDB 4 out of 5.
You do get what you pay for. The solution isn't overly expensive. We don't have any subscriptions that I know of. We are paying for document DB, which is a clone of MongoDB. That's part of our whole solution.

The solution is expensive overall. It does not require a license but if you want the support then you will need to purchase the license. They use a pay-as-you-go model and you are able to receive some discounts by making longer usage commitments.

If you understand cloud computing, there is nothing called licensing. They call it a service - we are getting software as a service. We are not getting any licenses for that. If you need a service today, you use that service today, and if you don't require it tomorrow, you will discontinue with it. So you will not incur any costs from the licensing side. You will just pay as you go, that's it.

Purchasing through the AWS Marketplace was easy and seamless. We chose the AWS Marketplace because it is a brand name and a popular product. It is too expensive. They need to work on this.

Our purchasing experience on the AWS Marketplace was great. We chose to go through the AWS Marketplace as a small team; my team selected it, and we consist of three people. The pricing and licensing is great.

The pricing is not that expensive, but it can be, especially when we have deployed it across multiple zones.
The product has a yearly subscription.
I don't have any concerns about MongoDB Atlas pricing and licensing.
MongoDB Atlas provides good value for money. MongoDB Atlas is not expensive, and since it's a cloud-based solution, you pay by usage.
I did not get into the solution's licensing costs since that is taken care of by the customers who want to use the product.
The solution is fairly priced. I rate the pricing a seven out of ten.

The price of MongoDB Atlas is highly expensive to use and maintain. They are taking advantage of the users with such a high price.

I believe when it is deployed publicly, it is pretty cheap. But the costs are high if it is deployed on-premises or you're using a private database.
We pay for the license on a monthly basis. It's not cheap or expensive. For smaller companies, it's definitely expensive.
