Great Experience but not PCI Compliant

  • August 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Love their integration with almost all popular frameworks out there. Can get started in just one line agent installation. Looked into their Log management solution which is also great!
What do you dislike about the product?
Alas, they are not PCI compliant therefore exporting logs to them becomes a challenge as it comes under purview of PCI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using it mainly as a metrics aggregation tool and also using for log management for non critical workloads with respect to PCI.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best for small infrastructures as too costly for bigger ones.

One of the best data monitoring tools

  • August 16, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to integrate with almost all of the cloud services is the best thing I like about datadog. Having used it for almost 7-8 months I found out that you can configure logs for even the smallest of unexpected behaviours in datadog
What do you dislike about the product?
Would've appreciated if they offered a free plan with limited functionality for early-stage startups. Currently they only have a 14days trial period
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using datadog as a monitoring system in case of failure. Having already used cloudwatch I think datadog offer tons of integrations and customizations out of the box

Great out of the box experience

  • August 14, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The fact that its extremely easy to get started. The agent install is a one line command and you are good to go. Integration with all popular channels such as Slack, Pagerduty. Ready made dashboards add to the charm as absolutely low barrier to entry and sensible defaults.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too costly. 15 USD for one host is way too much for a startup who has close to 10 servers which can be expected. They do provide a free account for upto 5 hosts though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Datadog for application errors monitoring and alerting. We have realized tremendous benifits in terms of headspace that correct people will be notified should anything break.

Good platform, poor pricing model

  • July 31, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to get going, performs a simple task well.
What do you dislike about the product?
* It's very easy to drive up the bill to ridiculous amounts.
* The pricing model does not scale with enterprise.
* Recently, an engineer accidentally left an ephemeral port attached to an IP address in the stream. This increased our bill by $10,000 per-month.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used datadog for easy-to-push time-series scalar data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be wary of the price. Don't get sucked in and end blowing all your cash on a small piece of the puzzle.

Data Dog is A Good Boi

  • July 31, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We used Data Dog for our Saas and Paas alerting and incident monitoring. It integrated very nicely with our other systems, we integrated with Hipchat for instance to monitor some of our critical services. Our team could then keep an eye on issues as they develop and see trending problems very easily. The visualizations are very cool, while we tenedd to not get too much use out of them.
What do you dislike about the product?
I mostly have nothing negative to say, the pricing is very reasonable, the integrations are great. I suppose if I had to come up with something it would be that there can be a somewhat overwhelming amount of information being presented sometimes but once you get past the learning curve it is not bad at all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were using data dog to expose our SAAS and PAAS alerting to our entire team (we have this integrated through Hipchat). We could see issues nearly live as they develop and get that information in front of the appropriate groups all at once.We have since moved to Pulseway.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend data dog, its a great product at a great price and it integrates nicely just as you would expect into other systems.

Easy to start, somewhat confusing UI

  • July 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoyed how the documentation for Datadog really allowed anyone to start using their services.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was pretty confusing setting up the software at first, since the UI isn't entirely intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to automate much of our QA pipeline now, which is immensely helpful.

Essential monitoring service for teams with hybrid environments

  • July 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Their service is around giving you the option to pull data from your services, clusters, and infrastructure in one site. After you send all your data there you can create dashboards, and analyze the analytics. You are able to create alarms and with those, you would receive a notification when the threshold of the alarm is triggered.
They offer also many different integrations with third-party services, systems and products.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not easy to set up. You need to investigate a bit before setting up. It is worth it though. Another thing is the price. It is not the best in availability when you compare it with other options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When we set it up, we usually want to get all the insight about the products we built. So it is great for sharing the status of the platform with all the stake holders of the product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a great tool. Take your time to learn it, it will be worth in the future. We have set it up for different clients.

Intuitive, useful software at a reasonable price

  • July 13, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I most like the fact that I have nearly complete control of what and how I monitor my infrastructure, but am not tasked with maintaining the monitoring infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some parts of the featureset are robust yet not intuitive. I would ideally like some cycles to be spent polishing those up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The largest benefit we reap is having a powerful suite of monitoring tools without having to maintain additional servers or troubleshoot connectivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're thinking about using it, contact Datadog customer relations. They will set you up with a free trial, and answer any questions you might have!
