"Datadog's seamless integration with Slack and PagerDuty helped us to receive alerts right to the most common notification methods we use (our mobile devices and Slack)."
"Sometimes it's more user friendly for development teams. There are some parts of Datadog that are more understandable for development teams.

"The solution should provide alerts for cloud outages."
"When the logs are too big, and Datadog splits them, the JSON format breaks and it is not so useful for us."
"I would like testing for data in the future."
"I'm still exploring the trial version, and it is fine. One thing that I haven't been able to figure out is how to retrieve a report. This is something that could be improved. I probably need to navigate to a place to access the reports."
"Geo-data is also something very critical that we hope to see in the future."
