SigNoz is an OpenTelemetry-native observability platform that brings logs, metrics, and traces into one workflow for investigation, dashboards, alerting, and service-level debugging. It can be deployed as a self-hosted system or used through SigNoz Cloud, making it relevant to teams that want a unified telemetry layer without assembling separate log, metric, and tracing products.
The open-source position needs a precise boundary. SigNoz maintainers describe the non-ee portion of the repository as MIT Expat, while the ee directory is under the SigNoz Enterprise license; GitHub reports the repository license as Other or NOASSERTION. Buyers that need advanced governance, fine-grained access control, or enterprise support should validate the Cloud and Enterprise feature boundary rather than assuming every capability is available in a free self-hosted deployment.
Pricing spans self-hosting and hosted usage. Official SigNoz pricing lists a Teams entry from $49 per month, telemetry ingestion prices that vary by signal, and custom Enterprise options. That makes SigNoz a strong fit for teams evaluating OpenTelemetry coverage and deployment control, provided they model retention, ingestion volume, and the enterprise feature boundary before committing.
