Daily provisioning tasks after maintenance
What do you like best about the product?
Datadog shows short, simple and easy-to-understand graphs to give an appropriate overview of the system's performance, which is great because it turns something that’s really complex into a very simple visual representation that can be understood quickly. It can be integrated with Cloud Watch, so you can monitor even without the agent installation, a very cool asset of an already powerful tool. Also, it provides a lightweight agent on hosts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Datadog is an expensive software compared to other similar tools, like Zabbix and Icinga. I think it should come with a custom query language, which could be very handy for programmers. Also, it would be great if they could reduce the delays in monitoring agent response time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog is used in the IT Department, specifically by the Critical Incident and Network Ops teams to identify, tag, and respond to alerts within the company. It provides a variety of data to manage and maintain the existing infrastructure for internal and external sites and applications. This software is very useful for daily provisioning tasks prior or after any maintenance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Datadog to any company, regardless of its size, that wants to get a deeper understanding of their systems and services. It works perfect for projects where you want to determine what quantifiable data would lead to success. I think Datadog would be unappropriated for financial information. On this case, I would recommend using a specific tool for that.

Best Metrics
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to configure everything on the DataDog. If I want to add some metrics and visualize it, I can easily do that in a matter of few hours. Really good documentation and well written. I also enjoy the support team that is always ready to help out with any problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really like some of its functionality with alarms and notifications. I think it could be better improved. But overall, I really enjoy it more than any other tools that I have used in the past. Easy configuration and integration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving different problems with Datadog:
- visualization of data;
- metrics monitoring;
There are certain benefits I have realized so far:
- best visualization that can be achieved with more work hours with ELK stack, but Datadog has more functionality that one can tune ELK on to have;
- easy integration with other tools and notifications to Jira, email, Slack, etc.

I think it's heading to the right direction but Datadog needs to work on its documentation.
Your metrics in one central location.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to see the metrics across our whole stack in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have nothing to dislike. The product is super helpful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem it fixed is performance monitoring our environment without going to different place to see the data. This made it easier to see how data correlated and respond to it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want your performance monitoring to be hassle free, consider using it.
Complicated software
What do you like best about the product?
At all times this software warns about the performance of each program that is installed on the computer or how is the overall performance of the computer I am working to know if there is something that causes it to slow down or is on the verge of being damaged, with these observations that makes this software everything is well monitored and is in perfect condition always allowing work without complications and with 100% performance for greater agility and without delays
What do you dislike about the product?
Its complicated use since I acquired it made me generate more knowledge of the basic knowledge I had for the configuration of these software and I had a long learning but that helped me to learn much more and expand my knowledge to improve each day the platform of a more functioning full
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The capacity that has for its development and good monitoring to be supervising all the app of the system and the use that it is having is verifying if it is apt to work in the registered team or it is better to make an update in the system before working and start use the app and that in the middle of the work causes me failures that would waste my time and my work, that's why datadog from the beginning informs me the status of each app and its performance
Datadog is great for monitoring applications and ensure it’s performance
What do you like best about the product?
It is perfect for monitoring your applications performance, showing up all the relevant information in real time. With Datadog you can set alarms to notify any irregularity within the system. The API is very simple, so it allows integration with several applications or services. Besides, it allows for creation of a centralized source of data. About their costumer support, it’s very helpful and responsive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although it has many benefits when monitoring your system, it also has some limitations when it comes to report and analyze. It does not have the right tools for doing advanced graphing operations. Also, Datadog needs to be more robust in order to improve its comercial image and become more reliable to the audience. When it comes to billing, it isn’t completely straightforward, being confusing at times, while you end up without understanding the monthly costs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog is an excellent monitoring solution. We use it to monitor our applications and ensure it’s performing well. It is adopted across the entire company, but it is managed by the IT department. It’s perfect for tuning our software applications. I consider it as a key solution for our company, ensuring our infrastructure with a fast and reliable service.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Datadog is a great solution for displaying server metrics and trigger alerts whenever an issue appears. If you ever have any issue with the software, the costumer support will always be there to answer properly. However, I would not recommend Datadog for doing advanced mathematical operations. On those cases, it may be necessary to integrate with another BI tool.
Product of great interest
What do you like best about the product?
It gives me a balance in the work to know how is the performance of each app and each installed software that works and so be aware of each one or that is consuming many resources in the system that makes it slow and does not allow me to execute the actions that I need to do to make my work efficient, without Datadog I could not know which are the app that cause discomfort and that delay me in my work and its good support allows me to have the confidence to ask all the complications that are caused for make your cash settlement in a short time
What do you dislike about the product?
When I started using this platform I found it very complicated to use that I did not know where to start, it caused me a lot of headaches to know how it was working and what other functions it offered, the technical team explained to me but there were vocabulary that did not understand what I was doing. I call for help from a senior engineer who knew more about the issue and put the correct configuration to what I realized that if I did not know about programming and systems at a high level, not anyone can start doing the configuration because it will not succeed
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The customer service is always helping all the problems are solved so that the platform works properly monitoring each app installed in the system and make everything have an optimal performance so that it does not collapse its proper functioning
Monitoring service
What do you like best about the product?
I can install multiple platforms in the system with the assurance that Datadog will monitor one by one very well verifying that its operation is correct and that the system progresses optimally without difficulties
The analysis that Datadog performs with each platform is very safe I have the peace of mind that if it is being monitored everything will work with its performance to the maximum without errors or low performance

What do you dislike about the product?
The function it performs is very good but for this you have to know how to configure correctly and this takes time because the initial configuration is not so simple, it took me time to learn because it is a very broad platform with many functions that makes it a pretty guide How extensive is its operation
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The commands executed by this software are advanced and without error index, allowing to have a high performance system monitoring that all the platforms that I have installed work correctly, which makes me work with the certainty that any performance that this low percentage is going to inform datadog

Datadog for visualization of the server infrastructure
What do you like best about the product?
Something I especially like about Datadog is the endless integration options it provides. It works perfect with platforms like Slack and AWS. The dashboards always show all the relevant information on the same screen, especially when it comes to graphics. They’re also easy to customize and read. The interface is modern and intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although I think the interface from Datadog is great, I think it lacks of options for configuring agents, so it can make this process quicker. Something Datadog really needs is to be woven into codes, in order to gain independence and become more efficient. Other than that, I consider Datadog to be a great tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog is our tool for the proper visualization of the performance of our server infrastructure. We use several tools from Datadog, specially the dashboard functionality to get a general and yet quick view of the current state of our environment. Whenever there’s an issue with our servers or websites, Datadog will always show accurately where’s the problem and when it was detected.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your job requires writing, testing and running applications, which occasionally generate large data, then Datadog would be a great tool for viewing this information graphically. If you work with other tools, you can always integrate them with Datadog. On the other hand, I would not recommend Datadog for process level metrics, as I think other tools, like Zabbix or Icinga, could work better on this.
Performance alert
What do you like best about the product?
Makes application performance management with end-to-end monitoring warn of the security of data stored in the application that fail and cause a malfunction that may be compromised
Datadog can monitor and alert on different source categories that incorporate log files, performance metrics, availability, configuration and tracking changes
Monitoring is directed to data points that generate large amounts of records and data that focus on a series of critical events

What do you dislike about the product?
The start of the monitoring configuration of the application must be carried out by an expert developer in the subject so that its configuration is correct from the beginning and its operation is correct and in the future there is no damage or stop working properly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like the monitoring that goes from end to end perfecting each application and controlling its correct operation, which is the right one to avoid irreparable damages that can not be fixed in time, all the work that Datadog does, it seems spectacular to have a tool that gives me this security to be seeing all the applications of the system
