### "DataDog is terrific monitoring software"

July 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

DataDog is easy to implement and start reading data from your applications and servers. Their UI is beautiful. The ability to share graphs is also very nice.

Cons

DataDog can be pricey for a start up and I recommend using a trial and revisiting later when your product is established.

Pros

Extremely easy and user friendly monitoring tool and syncs up with AWS very easily. It has a dash board, alerting and visualization of metrics.

### "Get the observations you need for your custom application"

November 9, 2022

3.0

LOG Shipping / LOG Analysis

Pros

Log management - easy to set up and hook up, also will consume custom feeds once linked in.

Cons

It wasn't as plug and play as I thought it was going to be. But I think the 'ideal' shopping list we had was not realistic for what the market is providing.

### "Datadog is what you need if you share everything you saw"

March 3, 2018

5.0

Pros

Datadog is a service for IT monitoring, operations and team development that write and execute applications at scale and want to convert the enormous amounts of data generated by their applications, tools and services into practical knowledge. In my own experience I can say that very useful and efficient. Its interface is very friendly, so anyone can use it.

### "Excellent product and excellent customer support"

October 27, 2015

5.0

Datadog takes away a lot of overhead in maintaining monitoring infrastructure. This allows us to focus resources on our core services. It was quick to trial and proved useful during our load tests and performance tuning excercise.

Pros

Fantastically easy to setup and install. Works well with automation tools like Ansible to get it installed on a fleet of servers. Customer support is second to none!

Cons

Have to be a bit careful about AWS EC2 integrations.

### "Datadog is a solid performer but not the heaviest in features"

September 27, 2019

4.0

Pros

Datadog solves most of our needs for general system/application health monitoring and even covers some performance metrics that we use to make improvements.

Cons

Some of the detailed views of where bottlenecks are troubling a system can be lacking. Something we've seen a lag getting data refreshed in the dashboards.

### "A vital part of our infrastructure"

February 13, 2017

5.0

Datadog brings a whole new level to visibility of our infrastructure. It definitely has a learning curve but it's definitely worth it. Our incident response has become much less of a hassle. Tried AWS, Kafka, Cassandra, Zookeeper and Docker integrations - all are great starting points for building something custom.

Pros

Easy setup, numerous integrations, "just works".

Cons

Not very mobile friendly, some learning curve.

### "Helps you log and understand application analytics"

December 15, 2018

5.0

Pros

Makes some really good dashboards and works well across various applications and software stacks, so very versatile overall

Cons

Datadog could always boost the level of its integrations. It's only as valuable as it is able to connect with the apps that you need to get data from.

### "Better collaboration preferred"

December 16, 2022

4.0

Pros

Will need to learn before commenting. Generally good dashboards but heavy lift and too little help from DD.

Cons

Company seems difficult to have deep conversations or even pointers to assist, without having to pay for even 1 hour...

### "really good "

February 6, 2017

5.0

Datadog is a great application for very specific uses - To me, it feels like it was made to monitor AWS and AWS only not Azure. But it actually can monitor Azure and docker and chef as well but I still feel like Azure was an afterthought.
