"Fast and it doesn't keep you from completing a few undertakings on the double"
What do you like best about the product?
Framework details, programming details, API endpoints, occasions, dashboards, alarms, versatile applications, across the board. Datadog has a ton of pre-manufactured arrangements that you can actualize in your foundation and in the event that you won't discover reasonable arrangement you can assemble your own, incredible for AWS checking. Great client support and documentation.It does not prevent different instruments that I'm working with, when I work in datadog it doesn't back off the PC or I square it and that appears to be extraordinary to me contrasted with different stages that when I open them back off the PC and I can not function admirably
What do you dislike about the product?
Absence of Azure observing apparatuses, Datadog is unpredictable in building your own answers. A bit unreasonably costly for it's usefulness There's loads of broadly utilized applications which log naturally to stderr, and this causes Datadog to arrange all that they log as a blunder, when it isn't the situation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have set screens so we're alarmed at whatever point our administrations are acting in a way that could connote an issue (ie, database having high idleness, high mistake rates in site etc)being ready to screen all the framework of the cloud enables us to know about everything that occurs, regardless of whether great or awful
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Generally AWS checking, it can accomplished something in Azure, however choise of arrangements is very limited,If you have even marginally complex foundation (ie, multiple kinds of microservices running) at that point it's probable you can profit by utilizing Datadog to screen that everything is running easily.

Very easy to integrate and get up and running
What do you like best about the product?
The visualizations, especially how it can differentiate between different services, API's, HTTP status codes, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
No official way of converting screenboard dashboards to timeboard dashboards and vice versa.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Effective ways of visualizing our data and improve our continuous delivery process. Benefits realized so far include really clear visuals for our various API's.
Clean APM metrics
What do you like best about the product?
Gives a graph of cpu utilization, memory over a range of days
What do you dislike about the product?
Some notifications are hard to get for Amazon SQS
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CPU, memory limits on servers, SQS queue notifications
Quick and it does not prevent you from doing several tasks at once
What do you like best about the product?
It does not hinder other tools that I'm working with, when I work in datadog it does not slow down the computer or I block it and that seems great to me compared to other platforms that when I open them slow down the computer and I can not work well
What do you dislike about the product?
To put a profile picture in the datadog account, I have to register in another page to create an avatar and be able to put it in datadog I think it takes a long time to put a simple image should be upload a photo and go and not have to be registering in another page that takes me longer, choose not to put a photo that is not necessary and that I do not have time to be creating avatar
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
being able to monitor all the infrastructure of the cloud allows us to be aware of everything that happens, whether good or bad
DatDog's ease of setup has helped us get quick insight
What do you like best about the product?
Setting up alerting for Windows servers and Linux containers was very easy. We had this plugged into our Dev systems all the way up to production systems within days.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having to adjust our tagging strategy/naming conventions in AWS to make dashboards for some instances. We have same server setups in dev environments through production and don't want individual dashboards. having them tagged correctly allows us to be in one view and just change environment through drop down menu
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting a clear understanding of what happens in the environments either through simulated user behavior or actual user behavior was problematic. We have been able to find some clear bugs in our system along with obtaining data for right sizing servers.

Try it and see if it fits your needs
Amazing for the money
What do you like best about the product?
It lets me know when my servers are having issues when they happen, instead of when an end user on the server contacts us. This has been critical for our operations, as occasionally there are some rogue processes that hog all of the server resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have a great solution for PHP.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have had instances prior to using DataDog when a server's resources were full and we did not know about this until someone said a website was not working. Now we can stay on top of performance issues before they impact end users.
Log Analysis
What do you like best about the product?
Have used datadog for log analysis and it's features were very helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
With respect to user experience it has to be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It was helpful for flow analysis
Good tool for monitoring

It's integrations with various tools and platforms, made my life easy to see all the metrics in one place

Few times it gets messy will all the error logs we have. sometimes agents get stuck

APM and infra monitoring
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good tool when compared to other monitoring tools
datadog marketplace 100% leaders
What do you like best about the product?
System stats, software stats, API endpoints, events, dashboards, alerts, mobile apps, all in one. Datadog has a lot of pre-built solutions that you can implement in your infrastructure and if you will not find suitable solution you can build your own, great for AWS monitoring. Good customer support and documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of Azure monitoring tools, Datadog is very complex in building your own solutions. A bit too expensive for it`s functionality,Not very good for Azure if you are going to use marketplace solutions. Most of these are made for AWS and you will have to make something similar by yourself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contact helpdesk prior to build your own solutions, maybe you just didn`t find the same on marketplace,Monitoring of systems and services for production SaaS applications. It helps us discover issues both before and after they happen, and we use the dashboards both for system status and for business level dashboarding.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Mostly AWS monitoring, it can done something in Azure, but choise of solutions is very limited
