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."
"Overall, the Data UI and the usability of customer features continue to improve."
"The CCM, Workflows, Logs, APM, and RUM are all useful aspects of the solution."

"Datadog documentation on web pages has improved a lot and is pretty easy to follow and find."
"The dashboards and the performance of the software have been great."
"The Datadog suite has allowed us to easily integrate log collection into all of our services and quickly detect unexpected changes in system data to declare security incidents."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboards that are provided out of the box, as well as ones we were able to configure."
"We have been able to set very specific CPU and memory alerts, at the very base level, then we started to pull real business value, like 99th percentile response rates for our API calls."
"It's a good solution. It covers all aspects of monitoring purposes."
"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 error traceability is an area that can be improved."
"Some of the interface is still confusing to use."
"More granular control over dashboard sharing. Timeboard sharing."

"It would be nice to be able to graph metrics by excluding certain tags (like you can do in monitors)."
"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."

"Pricing and a few certain aspects in the solution needs to be improved."
"Some of the graphics on Opsview could be improved."
