"Automates processes and allows reports and statistics to improve the speed at which changes and assets are managed."

"It can have a more modernized pricing mechanism. We're actually working with them to figure out how to become more modular and have a better and more modernized pricing mechanism. The issue with Datadog is that you have to buy the whole suite of different products, and you kind of get stuck in the old utilization of 40% of their suite. Most organizations today break down between application development, networking, and security. Therefore, there should be a way to break down different modules into just app dev, infosec, networking, etc. Customers have various needs across their business lines, and sometimes, they're just not willing to have tools that they're not using 100%. AppDynamics is probably a little bit better in terms of being modular."
"We have contact with many customers that cover many areas, so we have cases where the infrastructure administration could be improved."
"Even though it is powerful on its own, the UI-based design lacks elegance, efficiency, and complexity."
"We want to reduce having to go to different screens to obtain all the information."
"The product could do better with its notifications."
"Datadog could improve the flexibility with AI and ML concepts. This will allow customers to be more leveraged towards publishing."
"The documentation could be improved regarding setting up the agent properly and debugging."
"Datadog could have a better business analysis module."
"The solution should offer better integration with other tools from a service management perspective."
"Product documentation is lacking, and sometimes, incorrect. Having better documentation will allow business analysts and data center personnel to rely on the Micro Focus help desk less."
