Enterprise support prices are negotiated individually with every customer. The price depends on many factors such as:
* Costs for the existing monitoring solution
* The amounts of collected data and the workload specifics (unique time series, churn rate, ingestion rate, query types, query rate, etc.)
* The amounts of compute resources needed for the monitoring solution
* Additional enterprise features
* SLA tier

Customer Service: since this is an open-source tool, customer service is not that great. Generally, you get all answers to your problems in online forums, but in case you got stuck, nobody will assist you in a channelised manner. You will have to find the way out on your own, and it may become frustrating at times.
More metrics for dashboards shall be added per the application being monitored. Standards metrics will work in most cases but may not in specific applications. Therefore, customised metrics shall be created for some of the industry-standard niche applications.
It is usable and one can learn if few people in the team are already using it. It can be difficult to understand at the beginning because of non intuitive UI and syntax of the rules. So, I've gone for 7 points as there is some room for improvement in user interface and rules syntax.
Highly customized pricing plans to choose from. Lower pricing for the same features compared to competitors. Easy to reach the support team, which provided detailed documentation and helped set up the Prometheus. Monitoring metrics gets very easy after the integration with Grafana. It also has a sophisticated alert setting mechanism to ensure we don't miss anything critical.
Victoria metrics is cheaper and more efficient than Prometheus, in terms of data ingestions, hardware resources, and Storage mechanism, also supports Prometheus extensions, and query language by default. Although Prometheus has a larger community and support, because of the interoperability of Victoria metrics the difference wouldn't concern us much. At the same time, it made our migration simpler
The ROI mentioned during the purchase has not been achieved, however this could be due to lack of data from our side. 2 years of implementation is too early to calculate and confirm the ROI.
