Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The visibility that it provides is valuable. It is helping in being proactive around incident management. It is helping us to be able to get more visibility into our customers' applications so that we can assist them at the application layer. We also provide them the infrastructure from an AWS standpoint. We are able to make sure that our customers are aware of certain critical things around the analytical piece of either the network or the application. We're able to call customers before they even know about the issue. From there, we can start putting together some change management processes and help them a bit."
"The most valuable features of Datadog are the flexibility and additional features when compared to other solutions, such as AppDynamics and Dynatrace. Some of the features include AI and ML capabilities and cloud and analysis monitoring"
"Their interface is probably one of the easiest things to use because it lets non-developers and non-engineers quickly get access to metrics and pull business value out of them. We could put together dashboards and give it to people who are non-technical, then they can see the state of the world."
"The dashboards and the performance of the software have been great."
"We have way more observability than what we had before - on the application and the overall system."
"The observability pipelines are the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"It is a good one stop location where we keep all our data for our infrastructure, and it's also easier to navigate between different things."
"The most valuable aspect is the APM which can monitor the metrics and latencies."
"It's a good solution. It covers all aspects of monitoring purposes."
"What was very compelling about OpsView was that we could dial out the noise and have meaningful and actionable alerts."
"The most valuable feature of Opsview is the ability to clone the services when you're monitoring something out of the test setup."
"I am satisfied with the overall product since it works well…It is a stable solution."
"We use this solution for internal monitoring our own cloud platform because we are a public cloud provider. We also use it for monitoring purposes on behalf of our clients."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"It seems that admin cost control granularity is an afterthought."
"The dashboard could be improved. It would be helpful to get a view of specific things that we need to monitor for our application."
"Datadog could always lower the price!"
"Once Datadog has gained wide adoption, it can often be overwhelming to both know and understand where to go to find answers to questions."
"Auto instrumentation on tracing has not been very easy to find in the documentation."
"I would like better navigability across pages."
"I found the solution to be stable, I did not experience any bugs or glitches. However, some of the managing team did."
"Its pricing model can be improved. Its settings should be improved for a better understanding of billing. They should also provide some alerts when there is an increase in the usage. For example, if there is 20% more increase from one week to another, the customer should get an alert."
"In a future release, we would like to have Observ for AI. Any AI and intelligence it can add to the monitoring is obviously beneficial. We would also like to have automated callouts."
"Some of the graphics on Opsview could be improved."
"Pricing and a few certain aspects in the solution needs to be improved."
"Customized reporting can be improved."
"Maybe the graphical representation can be improved. It can be enhanced for better visualization. It could be a little better. And the graph center can be improved."
