Observability, Simplified
Qorrelate
OpenTelemetry-native observability
Dynatrace
Enterprise complexity
OpenTelemetry-native platform for seamless, standardized data collection and interoperability across cloud and distributed systems.
Your advantage: Standard OTel attributes mean zero lock-in. Switch backends without rewriting dashboards or alerts.
Dynatrace relies heavily on its proprietary OneAgent. OTel is supported but full functionality requires their agent ecosystem.
Why it matters: Every renamed attribute means rewriting dashboards, alerts, and queries if you ever switch. OTel standards keep your data portable across any backend.
Get started in minutes with a clean, modern interface. No training required -- if you know observability, you know Qorrelate.
Your advantage: Developers can ship observability in minutes. No certifications or specialists required.
Dynatrace requires extensive training and certification. The AI-driven approach hides details and requires dedicated specialists.
Why it matters: Davis AI is powerful but opaque. When it fails, you need certified experts to debug—adding cost and delay.
Simple, predictable pricing based on data ingested. One rate for all telemetry -- logs, metrics, and traces.
Your advantage: Forecast costs accurately. No surprise host-unit or DEM-unit bills.
Dynatrace pricing involves host units, DEM units, and various add-ons. You need a sales call to even get a price quote.
Why it matters: Host units, DEM units, and DDU pricing make budgets unpredictable and hard to forecast month-to-month.
Built on OpenTelemetry from the ground up. Use standard instrumentation and keep your data fully portable across platforms.
Your advantage: Use any OTel-compatible SDK. No proprietary agent means no license fees and full portability.
Dynatrace OneAgent is proprietary and deeply embedded. Migrating away requires re-instrumentation across services.
Why it matters: OneAgent is required for full functionality, creating deep vendor dependency and high migration costs.
Run Qorrelate on your own infrastructure for complete data sovereignty and full compliance with regulatory requirements.
Your advantage: Deploy in your VPC for compliance. Same features whether cloud or self-hosted.
Dynatrace Managed requires significant infrastructure and expertise. Most advanced features are available SaaS-only.
Why it matters: Key features like Grail and Davis AI are SaaS-only, limiting what you can run on your own infrastructure.
Only pay for the telemetry data you actually use, after filtering out noise with the built-in spam filter.
Your advantage: Drop filters reduce billable data before ingestion. Keep signal, cut cost.
You pay for all ingested data upfront, regardless of any filtering applied within Dynatrace after ingestion.
Why it matters: You pay for noise. Filtering after ingest doesn't reduce your bill.
