"Profiling has been made easier."
"Overall, the Data UI and the usability of customer features continue to improve."
"The visibility that it provides is valuable. It is helping in being proactive around incident management. It is helping us to be able to get more visibility into our customers' applications so that we can assist them at the application layer. We also provide them the infrastructure from an AWS standpoint. We are able to make sure that our customers are aware of certain critical things around the analytical piece of either the network or the application. We're able to call customers before they even know about the issue. From there, we can start putting together some change management processes and help them a bit."
"The integration into AWS is key as well as our software is currently bound to AWS."
"Datadog is providing efficiency in the products we develop for the wireless device engineering department."
"It is easy to navigate the menu and create tests."

"If there were a more cost-effective manner of deploying the tool, we'd be more likely to adopt it more widely."
"Datadog could improve the flexibility with AI and ML concepts. This will allow customers to be more leveraged towards publishing."
"The ability to find what you are looking for when starting out could be improved."
"Sometimes it’s difficult to customize certain queries to find specific things, specifically with the logging solution."
"The parallel editing of the dashboards should not cause users to lose the work of another person."
"The product is quite complex, and there are so many features that I either didn't know about or wasn't sure how to use."
"We primarily use the log management functionality, and the only feedback I have there is better fuzzy text searching in logs (the kind that Kibana has)."
"The dashboard could be improved. It would be helpful to get a view of specific things that we need to monitor for our application."
"Since I used the beta, improvements are to be expected. The dashboard options could have been clearer, but I believe it is more a problem with the limited documentation available at the time."
"Improvement is needed in the dashboard of InsightOps, especially for less technical users."
"Rapid7 InsightOps could improve by making the search query better. There are times when the search query is broken and it does not find anything."
