The Verdict
Grafana is built for devops teams and sre teams, with a focus on dashboards and data-sources. Moz Pro targets seo professionals and agencies and leads with keyword-explorer and link-explorer.
On pricing, Grafana is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $29/mo compared to $99/mo for Moz Pro. That $70/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Feature-wise, Grafana offers broader built-in capabilities (8 features vs 6), while Moz Pro takes a more focused approach — which can mean a simpler, faster onboarding experience.
Bottom line: Grafana has a slight overall edge — but if trusted domain authority metric matters most to you, Moz Pro may still be the right call.
