Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."We retrieve historical data with just a click of a button to move it from cold to hot or warm because it's already stored in the backend storage"
"Datadog provides tracing and logging, whereas Dynatrace focuses on tracing, and Splunk is more of a logging tool. Datadog's advantage is that we don't need two tools."
"We enjoy the multistep API tests."
"This is definitely a good product and I would consider them one of the leaders within the application monitoring and cloud monitoring space."
"Datadog dashboards are pretty great."
"The most valuable features are logging, the extensive set of integrations, and easy jumpstart."
"We integrate our application logs. It is great to be able to tie our metrics and our traces together."
"The tool's deployment is easy."
"Datadog's seamless integration with Slack and PagerDuty helped us to receive alerts right to the most common notification methods we use (our mobile devices and Slack)."
"It would be beneficial to have some level of customization available in the managed service, tailored to the specific use cases of the end users."
"We need a lot of modules since we collect all data logs from all operating systems."
"The menu on the left is pretty dense (and I know it has to be). I never knew about the cmd+k functionality until recently. It would be helpful to offer more tips/cheat sheets to see handy shortcuts like that."
"We want to reduce having to go to different screens to obtain all the information."
"Datadog needs more local Asia-Pacific support, and if they don't have a SaaS solution in Asia-Pacific, they should offer an on-prem version. I'm told that's not possible."
"It could probably be a little bit of a better user experience."
"The error traceability is an area that can be improved."
"Sometimes, it takes a long time to load the dashboard if we have many charts."
"Additional metrics should be included."
