Great SaaS monitoring solution available in the market that supports several platforms

The solution is excellent for application monitoring, as it supports monitoring using traces. Notification in Datadog is excellent as it integrates with Service-Now, Slack bringing immediate attention of the users.

The support from Datadog is something I see to be improved, as they deal with tickets only on emails. The support team doesn't connect over calls for troubleshooting, and there is no proper escalating process causing a delay in fixing monitoring issues.

Awesome application.

The dashboards of each AWS service, the way they display the graphs, the number of metrics collected by the agent, also the number of features to monitor AWS resources allow you to monitor every single detail in your architecture.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a little bit hard to start understanding the concept of datadog and how it works, also the cost of the services. And if possible to restructure the documentation, set proper title, put real case examples cause I did lost everytime so I am working on my own documentation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The best thing that helps is the logs section, the way DataDog sectioned the logs allows you to pinpoint and spot any abnormal behavior behind high CPU and memory usage. In addition, to that the Database performance and especailly the RDS slow queries.
