Vast tooling capabilities and resources!
What do you like best about the product?
We are just beginning to explore all the functionality that Datadog offers, and it's so good it's almost overwhelming for a small team. Really appreciate how they onboard new clients and put together customized resources!
What do you dislike about the product?
As mentioned in the like response, it's almost a dislike that they have so many tools because it can be overwhelming. We wanted to prioritize security and posturing, which they are just starting to invest in. They're very responsive to user feedback, so I have no doubt they'll only continue to grow and improve their assortment and ease of use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog is helping us with User Monitoring and gathering some alerting for errors, outages, and uptime. We're likely going to scale with them over time, but I imagine they can do quite a bit with their larger enterprise clients.
Awesome monitoring and observability tool
What do you like best about the product?
Datadog has many features that make it one of the best monitoring tools in the market. I like the ease of using these tools and the enterprise support that comes with it. It supports a lot of integration, making it easy for administrators to monitor any services/machine in the organization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Everything in the product is just good and there is nothing that you can dislike. However I would like them to have some training material/videos. The documentation can be simplified a little.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an organization, we are looking for a tool that can help us with observability, and Datadog does the same. The need to have a monitoring tool to monitor and set up an alert for any running service is being achieved via Datadog.
Good monitoring tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to set up monitoring with datadog,ui is not bad
What do you dislike about the product?
i wish there was a user tutorial for new features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
helps the Company monitoring real time user activity
Consolidated view of logs and metrics from across the infrastructure and application stack.
What do you like best about the product?
Seeing logs, metrics and tracing across disparate technology stacks makes finding and following problems across a microservice architecture much more straightforward. I find it easier than using AWS Cloudwatch to try and do the same.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a lot of functionality, but some of these areas require configuration for them to work. However, this is par for the course with any monitoring and dashboarding product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows for the correlation of events across networked microservices without manually copying trace IDs or similar from one logging or tracing system to another. This makes it much quicker and easier to see the impact that one system can have on another.
Much more than just logging
What do you like best about the product?
I was impressed with the integrations part of DataDog.
Our main goal was to centralize activity and audit logs of critical systems in our organization.
We were able to integrate most of our systems in a matter of hours:
JumpCloud, Gsuite, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Auth0 and more.
The instructions were easy to follow, and an integration usually takes only a few minutes.

What do you dislike about the product?
Log parsing could be improved.
The logging format is not standard across machines when you have multiple devices with different OS.
If you want standardization, you must set up pipelines to ingest and parse the logs, which I found a bit tedious.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our motivation for choosing DataDog was security and compliance.
We are using DataDog as our Siem: our logs are centralized, we keep track of our IS KPIs, and we set up monitoring and alerts as needed.

Datadog help resolve our support tickets
What do you like best about the product?
We use it to understand and analyze the performance of our systems and use it as a way to monitor our system health checks so it saves some effort on the developer side.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is not the best, and some charts are not user-friendly for a non-techie person. Analyzing queries is not intuitive and requires some training to understand it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Like I mentioned earlier, it helps in understanding the performance of the systems, web applications we build. We also use it as a monitor to ensure there is constant uptime.
Awesome utility for us, you guys keep cranking amazingly useful features at high velocity
What do you like best about the product?
Overview of the full infrastructure, and integration between all layers, (Infra, Databases, Traces,).
Every time we see a "New" badge we have to try it because it "must be good". So thank you for your effort on building those features, and thank you for releasing only "high quality" and complete features that provide ACTUAL value (vs competitors, that don't really do much and lag behind features)
Also big thank you for full OpenTelemetry integration/support. and the Datadog OTLP agent integration.
Keep up the amazing work

What do you dislike about the product?
A bit of heavier lock-in lately, dd-trace is getting a big monopoly to collect reliably all things (traces, profiles, and now, Security (ASM)). I wish there was an open standard for that, or you guys would release an open standard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It all started with one central place for logs, monitors, alerts, traces.
It then evolved into a central place for service catalog overview, network map/dependencies calculator view.
I hope it will evolve further into one tool to rule them all (More verticals, PagerDuty full replacement, Zoom full replacement, JIRA full replacement)
I'm sure you can kick their butt with your high quality and capacity to execute.

Dashcon a door to future evolution in technology
What do you like best about the product?
Workshops provided good insights and the keynotes showcased what the company is focused on and where they plan to be in future
What do you dislike about the product?
Workshops could have been trimmed into smaller sections
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog seems to solve some scalibility issue which might be leverage in our environment
Datadog
What do you like best about the product?
Our team uses a number of DD features. We are heavily invested in the dashboards and monitors. We have DD integrated with Slack and Pager Duty and it a primary source of notifications that drives actions w/in our Operations team.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I outwardly dislike. I consider myself an intermediate user, so gaining training and experience using the DD tools is interesting to me. I am especially interested in some of the newer features described at the Keynote today. Service Catalog, Security analysis, Workflows are all features that will integrate nicely w/ our current process suite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our current implementation of DD is mostly driven around monitoring and alerting of production software and critical systems in our infra.
Useful monitoring and troubleshooting product, but could improve on cost optimization suggestions
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of consolidating data with dashboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
The inability to effectively discern the monthly costs based on logging, tracing, retention, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing single pages for teams to view their service data and inform their troubleshooting
