Monitor All The Things

  • December 04, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Datadog's myriad integrations make it useful for monitoring just about any web stack you can imagine.
What do you dislike about the product?
The permissions model for dashboards make it a free-for-all. You have two choices, admin or unprotected. If the dashboards are unprotected, anyone can edit them. In larger team environments where users have varying levels of skill and a different view of which metrics are important, this can create a mess.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog provides visibility into our system performance by allowing us to visualize and monitor telemetry and metrics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I really do like this product. If you have a large number of servers, it can get expensive compared to an open source solution. However, managing an OSS solution that provides all of what Datadog can will be time-intensive. Datadog just works.

Logging, metrics and alerting all in one package

  • November 16, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to aggregate metrics to pull out outliers across a large group of processes/instances.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's difficult to drill down from metrics to logs especially when looking at aggregate groups.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring of web services hosted in AWS, troubleshooting and log spelunking
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Lots of features, but this produces a more complex UI and steeper learning curve

Efficient performance monitoring tool

  • November 07, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, simple installation, great features which allow you to observe variety of metrics and extract critical observations about system performance. CPU monitoring is very useful. Creating graphs and metric customization is easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
User interface is technical, not a naive user's playground. Learning the basics can be time-consuming at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Performance monitoring, system analysis, and visual reporting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Datadog is highly efficient once the users get to know how to work the app. Its visualization tools and reporting metrics are a must for any organization.

One of the best monitoring tool

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?

- Dashboards are just amazing
- You can write your own scripts to parse logs and integrate them
- You can monitor all your infrastructure on site or in the cloud
- Agent installation can be automated.
- Advanced graph functionality.
- High level of customization.
- Alert notifications via e-mail and PagerDuty

- Sampling intervals of 10 seconds
- Mute all alerts with 1 click during upgrades and maintenance

What do you dislike about the product?
- Price. It's not cheap
- Heavy learning curve to several key features.
- Not very good for Azure
- The datadog agent eats a bit too much memory
- No significant cons, though I'd like to be able to monitor RDS health without integrating to the entire AWS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used Graphite as a monitoring tool. We had constant performance problems and system crashes. We started using Datadog and managed to obtain more detailed graphics, better dashboards, and a more reliable monitoring system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the trial version, install some agents in your servers, enjoy

Simple to Deploy Tools

  • October 25, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I liked how easy it was to get my on-prem and AWS systems into the same dashboard and system.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me, I would have liked to seen pricing based on data points ingested, not just node count. This can cause things to get pricey pretty fast.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had zero metric insights into our AWS systems. And internally, things like Zabbix and Nagios require a lot of work for little change. We were able to correlate AWS data to onsite date. In a simple, visual dashboard.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Documentation is the key. Reading everything will help in perfect Usecase implementation.

Great Monitoring Tool

  • October 19, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The integration with Amazon. We can easily see our AWS performance, set up alerts, and easily respond to them.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's really hard to think of anything we don't like. Rewriting all of our alerts was painful, but we'd get that switching to any other tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to quickly alert on and respond to issues with our infrastructure.
