Ultimate tool for Log Management
What do you like best about the product?
Datadog does particularly well in Incident Detection. Datadog enables real-time monitoring of service health, with alerting configured via integrations like PagerDuty. This helps us quickly detect production issues, minimise downtime, and maintain SLA/SLO commitments.
At Indeed, we use Datadog extensively across our engineering organisation for monitoring, incident detection, observability, and SLO management. It plays a critical role in ensuring the reliability and performance of our services, especially those with high user impact like the IRL Sign-In Tool and our GraphQL APIs. I use Datadog very frequently because it is easy to use and easy to integrate.

What do you dislike about the product?
The Datadog UI is powerful but can be intimidating and cluttered especially when building complex queries or nested monitors. There is a learning curve for everyone.

Best observability platform for infrastructure ,APM and RU
What do you like best about the product?
We can create real time dashboards for better observability
Best tool for infrastructure,APM and Rummonitoring purpose
Best tool for infrastructure,APM and Rummonitoring purpose
What do you dislike about the product?
Cost-i think it is too much costly,it should be less costly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using here for application performance monitoring,real user monitoring and infrastructure monitoring so we dont need to use multiple tools for each monitoring
Datadog an easy, visual way to monitor servers or containers
What do you like best about the product?
Datadog lets you visualize your server environment, from event logs to physical health
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of the more advanced features require editing hidden config files
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We couldn't visualize our server health and needed to retain logs for legal reasons. It solved both these problems.
Great technology with a nice interface
What is most valuable?
What needs improvement?
There should be a clearer view of the expenses.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used the solution for four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable.
How are customer service and support?
I have not personally interacted with customer service. I am satisfied with tech support.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I am using ThousandEyes and Datadog. Datadog supports AI-driven data analysis, with some AI elements to analyze, like data processing tools and so on. AI helps in Datadog primarily for resolving application issues.
How was the initial setup?
It was not difficult to set up for me. There was no problem.
What was our ROI?
I can confirm there is a return on investment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I find the setup cost to be too expensive. The setup cost for Datadog is more than $100. I am evaluating the usage of this solution, however, it is too expensive.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate this solution eight out of ten.
Makes it easy to track down a malfunctioning service, diagnose the problem, and push a fix
What is our primary use case?
We use Datadog for monitoring and observing all of our systems, which range in complexity from lightweight, user-facing serverless lambda functions with millions of daily calls to huge, monolithic internal applications that are essential to our core operations. The value we derive from Datadog stems from its ability to handle and parse a massive volume of incoming data from many different sources and tie it together into a single, informative view of reliability and performance across our architecture.
How has it helped my organization?
Adopting Datadog has been fantastic for our observability strategy. Where previously we were grepping through gigabytes of plaintext logs, now we're able to quickly sort, filter, and search millions of log entries with ease. When an issue arises, Datadog makes it easy to track down the malfunctioning service, diagnose the problem, and push a fix.
Consequently, our team efficiency has skyrocketed. No longer does it take hours to find the root cause of an issue across multiple services. Shortened debugging time, in turn, leads to more time for impactful, user-facing work.
What is most valuable?
Our services have many moving parts, all of which need to talk to each other. The Service Map makes visualizing this complex architecture - and locating problems - an absolute breeze. When I reflect on the ways we used to track down issues, I can't imagine how we ever managed before Datadog.
Additionally, our architecture is written in several languages, and one area where Datadog particularly shines is in providing first-class support for a
multitude of programming languages. We haven't found a case yet where we
needed to roll out our own solution for communicating with our instance.
What needs improvement?
A tool as powerful as Datadog is, understandably, going to have a bit of a learning curve, especially for new team members who are unfamiliar with the bevy of features it offers. Bringing new team members up to speed on its abilities can be challenging and sometimes requires too much hand-holding. The documentation is adequate, but team members coming into a project could benefit from more guided, interactive tutorials, ideally leveraging real-world data. This would give them the confidence to navigate the tool and make the most of all it offers.
For how long have I used the solution?
The company was using it before I arrived; I'm unsure of how long before.
Vendor Interactions Relation Management - DataDog
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.
