Hi there!

I wanted to know what kind of cost I can expect with Watcher and Marvel.  
I recall reading somewhere that these are not open source like Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana.  
Thanks for the help!

Thanks for your answer! Is there any reason why this isn't stated on the website? For example the pricing changes based on the use case of the customer?

No it doesn't. I don't know the reason behind us not advertising it, ask sales 🙂
