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's ability to group and visualize the servers and the data makes it relatively easy for the root cause analysis."
"Because of our client focus, it is easy for us to sell. This is because it is easy to use and easy to set up."
"Datadog agents act as an integration to different services, providing easy access and management."
"The most valuable feature of Datadog is its logs."
"Datadog has flexibility."
"The visibility into our network has allowed for quick diagnosis of failures, identification of underutilized or over-utilized resources, and allowed for cloud cost optimization opportunities."
"Having a wealth of information has helped us investigate outages, and having historical data helps us tune our system."
"The flexibility to create notebooks and dashboards and fully customize them gives us a lot of power to track the exact services and endpoints we are working on."
"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."
"The ease of implementation needs improvement."
"Datadog could make their use cases more visible either through their docs or tutorial videos."
"For three to four months, we have been experiencing real-time delays. For example, if we're monitoring incoming traffic, the real-time status should be displayed up to a certain point. However, due to delays or issues with Datadog, the real-time data might only be updated at an earlier time. We are experiencing consistent delays in data updates from Datadog, with the most recent data often being delayed by about an hour. This issue has been ongoing for the past four months."
"The installation is easy for me. However, if you are new to this solution it might not be so easy."
"It can be overwhelming for new people as it has a lot of features."
"The correlation between the logs and the metrics needs improvement as most cases, we might use another logging tool (that is cheaper in cost) which we then have to link together."
"I sometimes log in and see items changed, either in the UI or a feature enabled. To see it for the first time without proper communication can sometimes come as a shock."
"Graph filters for logs need to be set manually which works well for JSON but not for unstructured logs."
