"The solution has offered increased visibility via logging APM, metrics, RUM, etc."
"It brings in observability, monitoring, and alerting capabilities - all of which we need to operate at scale."
"Excellent autocomplete for everything in the UI."
"Datadog has given us near-live visibility across our entire cloud platform."
"We have been able to set very specific CPU and memory alerts, at the very base level, then we started to pull real business value, like 99th percentile response rates for our API calls."
"Datadog helps us detect issues early on and helps in troubleshooting."
"We've found it most useful for managing Rstudio Workbench, which has its own logs that would not be picked up via Cloudwatch."
"It is easy to navigate the menu and create tests."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."
"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities."
"The ability to find what you are looking for when starting out could be improved."
"Auto instrumentation on tracing has not been very easy to find in the documentation."
"Datadog lacks a deeper application-level insight. Their competitors had eclipsed them in offering ET functionality that was important to us. That's why we stopped using it and switched to New Relic. Datadog's price is also high."
"We need more visibility into the error tracking dashboard."
"This service could be less costly."
"They could have better log reporting."
"More pre-configured "Monitor Alerts" would be helpful."
"I found the documentation can sometimes be confusing."
