Reviewed on Dec 01, 2024
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
One of the most thing being liked about datadog is the detailed information of the the track of the application, its request/response, error/log traces, complete api information with integration of the application servers, databases making sure the application remaining up and running throught the business working hours without any intereptions.
The complete visibility of the error traces makes it easy to track down any issues reported and thus making its fixes.

What do you dislike about the product?
When integrating the application its servers the database the cost is quite high. also when it comes to large applciation wiht heavy database it is tough to integrate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog helos in monitoing the entire application inclusing the servers, databases, api its request response error log and traces. Also with error success rates and different views a developer can easily configures the application in datadog and wntire application can be monitored easily in just few clicks. The benefits it gives to business is the applicaiton availability 24x7 and easy access to logs thus eliminating the problems and ensuring working of the application.

Once you got onto Datadog (a closed platform), they will leverage switching cost to squeeze you
Reviewed on Nov 27, 2024

What do you like best about the product?
Their marketing is very strong. As I was choosing between Grafana vs Datadog, I believed datadog can solve my problems quicker and I am willing to pay more for that.
What do you dislike about the product?
1 months into datadog, my decision of choosing Datadog over Grafana is already biting me. None of my expectations were materialized
1. Datadog was not quicker to set up; there are less support docs/examples comparing to Grafana.
2. Datadog's support team are all about being "nice" instead of making real progress. Very inefficient.
3. When you are stuck, their support will remind you of the "switching cost" instead of solving real problems for you. Very distasteful.
4. I invested in a closed platform instead of an open source stack where I have a much easier time to extend and switch.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have many microservices. As an executive, I needed a service catelog to track, monitor, and level up all of the services across all dimensions (APM, Cloud Cost, Incident, Log, etc).

Datadog is a great monitoring and observability tool
Reviewed on Nov 26, 2024
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Is a tool that provides many services like infrastructure monitoring, logging, database monitoring, etc. The great about this is that all services are interconnected, so when a problem ocuurs in your systems you can configure Datadog to have end 2 end visibility of your platform, helping the engineers to debug and find problems easy and fast enough.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the ui is very overwhelming, specially at the beginning, so many buttons and features makes the platform very complex to use, so the leraning curve is a bit hard at the beginnning, once you learn to use it is really simple and intuitive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The monitoring and alerting systems we have in AWS and GCP are good to identify problems, but when it comes to review an end 2 end problem that there is no clue when the error is happening, datadog is providing the tools to follow step by step with full visibility of our systems. This is increasing the productivity of the engineering team a lot. We are right now finalizing our trial version but I can tell that not even getting the full potentil of it yet, is really promising what we achieved in just a few weeks. Very excited of what is coming with the new discoveries of this platform features

What do you like best about the product?
We have deployed Datadog for our all cloud deployments in AWS cloud. A large number of integrations allow us to literally monitor everything. From AWS cloud infra to hosted compute whether it be physical, virtual or serverless. We are using Datadog to monitor our endpoints and UI testing of the applications through synthetic tests.
Deployment is super easy and quick with highly skilled support team. Datadog is one of the most frequenctly used tool in our organization and its been great. Documentation is very detailed and has improved over time allowing us to setup everything without major hurdles.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some features are limited when compared to compatitors. We used to monitor the infra through NewRelic which offered more visibility into the running processes but Datadog is limited when it comes to manual process monitoring.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visibility to monitor the infrastructure, network, applications and databases was needed to optimize cost and resource right sizing. We also needed to monitor the infra and applications to keep track of whats happening and troubleshoot issues when they arrise. Datadog has helped us in doing this and we are satified with it.

Amazing UX
Reviewed on Nov 08, 2024
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The user experience of DataDog is amazing. The granuality and flexibility of filters and charts makes it easy to quickly sift through large amounts of data and find what you need. This is especially useful when trying to quickly troubleshoot an incidents.
What do you dislike about the product?
One annoying thing about DataDog is working with IoC configurations that are defined in Terraform.
It's tough to make changes to your configurations because you need to deploy them in order to see if you did it correctly. It's also not possible to lock down resources defined with IoC, so sometimes people will edit something via the web UI that was conficuged in Terraform and then their changes will get reverted when Terraform re-deploys and they won't know why.
