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."
"I have found the logging and tracing features the most valuable."
"With Datadog I can look at the health of the technology stack and services."
"APM is great and has provided low-effort out-of-the-box observability for various services."
"It has a nice UI."
"It brings in observability, monitoring, and alerting capabilities - all of which we need to operate at scale."
"The most valuable aspect is the APM which can monitor the metrics and latencies."
"Datadog dashboards are pretty great."
"Datadog has so far been a breeze to use and set up."
"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."
"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."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"If there were a more cost-effective manner of deploying the tool, we'd be more likely to adopt it more widely."
"Datadog has a lot of features kind of cramped into one dashboard. It's quite hard to get around what feature does exactly what. There was a steep learning curve, trying to navigate through menus."
"It would also be nice if we had more insight into our own usage of Datadog (agents and custom metrics). They provide a usage page which does help, but it is not in real-time."
"We need more integration functionality, including certain metrics integration."
"We have recently had a number of issues with stability and delays on logging, monitoring, metric evaluation, and alerts."
"The incident management beta looks promising, but it is still missing the ability to automatically create incidents based on certain alerts."
"The way data is represented can be limiting. When I first tried it out a long time ago, you could graph a metric and another metric, and they'd overlay, but you couldn't take the ratio between the two."
"Geo-data is also something very critical that we hope to see in the future."
"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."
"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."
"Pricing and a few certain aspects in the solution needs to be improved."
"Customized reporting can be improved."
"Some of the graphics on Opsview could be improved."
