ALTERNATIVE // EU

The European alternative to Datadog without the surprise invoice

Datadog is powerful, but US-based and per-metric priced. monsys.ai covers the core for server teams (infrastructure monitoring, log signals, alerts, compliance reports, AI observability) at a flat price per server with data that stays in the EU.

monsys.ai dashboard as an alternative to Datadog

Flat price per server

€3 per server per month from the sixth server, the first 5 free. No stacking of per-host, per-metric, per-log and per-user pricing.

Data sovereignty

Hosted in Belgium by GoTrust BV. No third-country transfer for your operational data, which saves questions in GDPR and NIS2 trajectories.

Audit-grade reports

Ed25519-signed audit packs and on-demand reports. Evidence is a core feature of monsys.ai, not an add-on.

When monsys.ai fits

  1. You monitor servers, services and applications, not hyperscale microservice tracing.
  2. You want evidence for audits and customers, not just dashboards.
  3. You want to know upfront what monitoring costs.
  4. You want or need to keep your data inside the EU.

Frequently asked questions

Is monsys.ai a full Datadog replacement?

No. For hyperscale APM tracing and hundreds of SaaS integrations Datadog remains stronger. For server monitoring, compliance evidence and AI observability at a flat price, monsys.ai is the simpler, sovereign alternative.

How much work is switching?

For server monitoring: one install command per server, no application instrumentation needed. Most teams see their fleet in the dashboard within an hour.

What is the price difference in practice?

Datadog Infrastructure starts around $15 per host per month, excluding logs and extra products. monsys.ai costs €3 per server per month from the sixth server, everything included, and the first 5 servers are free.

Where is the data stored?

In Belgium, operated by GoTrust BV under European law. Authentication, alerts and reporting run without US SaaS services.
