"The observability pipelines are the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Even if we don't end up using Datadog, it revealed problems and optimizations to us that weren't obvious before."
"The integration and configuration are incredibly simple. The SaaS offering is remarkably easy to set up, especially if you're coming from a Graphite environment or anything that uses a StatsD."
"It has saved us a lot of trouble in implementation."
"Datadog has a lot of features to be able to drill down deep into the swath of logs that our platforms generate."
"Datadog is easy to use and easy to deploy. It's a better solution compared to others on the market in terms of being budget friendly for our customers."
"Its integration is most valuable because you can integrate it with various service providers such as AWS, .Net, etc."
"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."
"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."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"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 would be nice to be able to graph metrics by excluding certain tags (like you can do in monitors)."
"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."
"The documentation leaves a lot to be desired for new users."
"The solution should provide alerts for cloud outages."
"The product is quite complex, and there are so many features that I either didn't know about or wasn't sure how to use."

"Datadog does not have the feature where you can monitor external websites or check the SSL secure for websites."
"Some of the graphics on Opsview could 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."
"Customized reporting can be improved."
