We did some comparisons before picking Datadog. Datadog was recommended based on the features provided."
"Excellent autocomplete for everything in the UI."
"Sometimes it's more user friendly for development teams. There are some parts of Datadog that are more understandable for development teams. For example, the APM in Datadog works more manually and works like the tools in New Relic or Grafana, or Elastic. It is easier to understand for software development teams."
"By moving to Datadog, we did not need to manage our own monitoring infrastructure anymore."
"It has scaled great. I haven't run into any problems anywhere that I've used it. They have handled everything that we have needed them to."

"The most valuable feature of Datadog is its logs."
"Datadog has so far been a breeze to use and set up."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"It basically helps us. We have to stay in compliance with certain issues with some of our customers. We have to have these types of tools in place for protecting our network and our data. We're in the aerospace industry, so we have a lot of defense contracts. So, all those guys will make sure that we're protecting their information, and it does a good job in that aspect."
"It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications."
"The reports that you can run are really nice."
"The Sharecon feature is the most valuable."
"The most valuable features for us are the application logs monitoring and the dashboard, which provides a single-pane view of all the ongoing activities."
"ManageEngine Log360 is not difficult to deploy."
"The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward."
"I would like testing for data in the future."
"We have asked technical support questions, and sometimes they don't get back to us right away. Or when they do, it is not the right answer."
"If there were a more cost-effective manner of deploying the tool, we'd be more likely to adopt it more widely."
"We would really like to see more from the Service Catalog."
"The logging could be improved in the future."
"I've only been using Datadog for a few months, and at first, it was frankly overwhelming in terms of both the UI and the available capabilities."
"Deploying the agents is still very manual."
"We need more integration with security tools like Drata."
"It takes a little bit of time for Log360 to actually learn your environment."
"There is room for improvement, especially in the reporting aspect. The reports are not as good as those in Splunk."
"The matter of the data retention needs to be addressed."
"The graphical interface could be made easier to use when you are connecting to different network equipment."
"The support needs improvement."
"We can log in as a local user, and it's fine, but when we login with an Active Directory user, we cannot."
"It is not expensive compared to other solutions."
"On the logging system, there's a local on-client side that is encrypted, and there's one that is not encrypted. It is only for diagnostical purposes. However, both being encrypted would be very valuable for some audits."
