The short version

  • Only Cody has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Cody sourcegraph now publishes a single Enterprise plan starting at $16K, with no free or individual Pro tier listed on the pricing page; Trend Micro Vision One licensing is a credit pool consumed at different rates by different modules, so forecasting a renewal means modelling which capabilities you will activate rather than counting users, and switching on a new module silently draws down the budget for an existing one.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Cody

  • Sourcegraph now publishes a single Enterprise plan starting at $16K, with no free or individual Pro tier listed on the pricing page
  • sourcegraph.com/cody redirects to the documentation rather than a Cody product or pricing page
  • AI features are metered as credits included per user, and exceeding the allocation requires buying a higher volume bucket
  • Volume credit buckets are sold as an add-on rather than included
  • A customer success manager and premium support are optional paid extras on top of the Enterprise plan
  • Standard support is 24x5 rather than 24x7, with round-the-clock coverage sold as an upgrade
  • The published $16K figure is a starting price that scales with team size, so the actual cost is quoted rather than listed

Trend Micro Vision One

  • Licensing is a credit pool consumed at different rates by different modules, so forecasting a renewal means modelling which capabilities you will activate rather than counting users, and switching on a new module silently draws down the budget for an existing one.
  • Retention in the XDR data lake beyond the included window is bought with additional credits, so the retrospective hunting the platform is sold on is precisely the part with an ongoing meter attached, and teams shorten retention to control spend.
  • The correlation that justifies the platform only exists over deployed Trend sensors, so an organisation running only the endpoint agent gets an EDR with a large console, and reaching the advertised value means a de facto single-vendor commitment across email, network and workload.
  • Legacy management planes persist: Apex Central, Deep Security Manager and the older Cloud One consoles overlap with Vision One and migrations have run for years, so administrators frequently maintain two consoles for the same agents and learn both.
  • The agents hook file and network operations, so on build servers, database hosts and developer machines the overhead is noticeable, and the standard remedy is broad path exclusions that remove protection from exactly the directories where attackers stage tooling.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Cody: Is Cody free?

Cody offers a free tier for individual developers via VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio, and the web app. Unlimited free usage is available for solo developers.

Source
Trend Micro Vision One: What are Trend Micro Credits?

A single purchased pool of licensing units drawn down by whichever Vision One modules you activate, at different rates per module and per protected object. It replaces separate per-product subscriptions and shifts the forecasting problem onto you.

Cody: What does Cody Enterprise cost?

Cody Enterprise pricing is custom and requires contacting Sourcegraph sales. It is available for Sourcegraph Enterprise customers and must be quoted based on your deployment and usage needs.

Source
Trend Micro Vision One: Is this the same thing as Deep Security?

Not the same, but related. Server and workload protection in Vision One descends from Deep Security, and Trend has been migrating Deep Security and Cloud One Workload Security customers onto the Vision One platform. Existing Deep Security deployments still exist in the field.

Cody: What LLMs does Cody use?

Cody uses the latest large language models for code completions, chat, and debugging. It leverages Sourcegraph's advanced Search API to pull codebase context from local and remote repositories.

Source
Trend Micro Vision One: Does it replace my SIEM?

No. It correlates and retains telemetry from Trend sensors and selected third parties, but it is not a general-purpose log store for every system in the estate, and compliance log retention requirements are usually still met elsewhere.

Trend Micro Vision One: Do I have to use Trend endpoint protection?

To get real value, effectively yes. Third-party ingestion exists but the correlation quality depends on Trend's own sensor telemetry, and a Vision One deployment over someone else's endpoint agent is not what the platform is designed around.

Trend Micro Vision One: Where is the data held?

In the regional instance you choose at onboarding. Confirm the specific region against your residency obligations before deployment, because moving afterwards is a migration.
