Good app, but with a learning curve

  • March 26, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fully customizable dashboards make it easy to see the things you look at most often. Also, it has a ton of integrations for alert systems like pagerduty and VictorOps, ticketing systems, AWS, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of documentation found on their site is out of date. This makes it difficult to get things set up properly at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring resources on servers, latency across applications, Response times, metrics on queue sizes, metrrics on WAF usage, db pool connections, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get as much time in with the trial as you can to make sure everything you need works.

Problem alerts

  • March 21, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The database is safe because with datadog it keeps me informed of any alert that can be presented with any app program that may be failing and causing possible damage

The prices are very economical to know so good service that they offer that help a lot with this software with the advanced functions and the visibility of app like java, python, go and others

the support is very good solves quickly and easily any concern you have, are very kind and understanding
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not feel that I dislike some datadog because all the experience I have had with this software has been very good and it has helped me a lot because if I do not understand something they explain it to me in an easy and simple way to understand
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alert of any program that does not have its performance to 100% and that can be damaged without realizing it and it is too late to repair without arranging and losing information

you have complete visibility of all the app for ease of work so that everything is working correctly

Datadog kind-of hard to use

  • March 19, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The public dashboards are really useful for displaying and monitoring apps around the office. There are plenty of integrations and webhooks we can use to monitor our applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Training is hard to find, and when I do find it, a lot of the instructions are outdated, or not Windows friendly. The learning curve was higher for me, and it discouraged me from moving forward with Datadog. I've sent emails to their training team and they said they'll update their training content in the future to make it more Windows friendly.

The Monitor Report that gets emails if formatted strangely, where the top alerting monitors / top notification is summarized, a lot of the monitor names get cut off. Even if you click in the email to view the report in a browser, our monitors and alerts have to be named a specific way since we share the account with other divisions in the company, so the report just shows a bunch of our monitors with the same initial name [Department] - [Product] - [Container]/[Service], the names get cut off after Department and Product, so the rest of the report is harder to read -- I'd have to hover my mouse over to see the full name.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to monitor applications and set up alerts when things go wrong, whether it be CPU load too high, or RAM usage suddenly spike, we need to respond to these incidents and correct issues with our application.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Training would be easier if you were on macOS or Linux, having Windows subsystem for Linux didn't really help. Windows is fine if you already know what you're doing.

Datadog Works almost Like Magic

  • March 15, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Although I'm not involved in the Deployment of Datadog, I use it's service often to review alerts, logs, and Server Statuses. Recently I was tasked with building a Dashboard in React/Node. When it came time to figure out how to import Datadog without API access I found it was extremely easy to just pull an iframe from whatever charts/graphs I wanted.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although I don't have exact figures it's my understanding that Datadog is rather costly. All of the features are worth it though!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring MANY (100s of Servers) all in one place and getting alerts anytime an alert threshold is met.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Datadog is a great tool. Invest in the training for building dashboards and setting up proper tags/monitoring as it's well worth it.

perfect app

  • March 11, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
the monitoring that Datadog poses about the apop in the cloud and the database servers of the company is something spectacular and very reliable because I can work on my pc computer with the peace of mind that the whole system is working well and that if something is for being damaged or eating a lot of resources Datadog is going to make it known to close programs or visualize the app that is presenting problems and solve them before it is too late and it is a more serious damage

analyzes the app and shows me a detailed report of how they are working and the performance that each one is having to know if the performance that is presenting is normal or is failing something
What do you dislike about the product?
is a difficult platform to learn to use has a lot of concept that is not familiar and requires time at the beginning of the configuration to do everything right and that is a well configured system but it is worth learning because it provides more intelligence and is very useful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Datadog I can be aware of all the servers to know the current operation and be able to know if any is affecting me that the system is slow to be able to close or that one is due to failures, is a good monitoring platform

This Datadog service is very convenient with its structure for tracking personal site statistics, tracking
What do you dislike about the product?
To master it you need to spend a lot of practice, this is a big minus, not everyone can understand it.
Loads data very long..
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very useful for small companies, it developers for tracking actions related to the network of your computer as well as sites.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

monitoring

  • March 05, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
through datadog you can have the tracking of errors that can be caused in the app and be able to solve them so that the performance of the app is still normal

is an excellent platform that analyzes and gives solution to the problems that can be caused in the computer so that it can be navigated to perfection and if there is any program that could be damaging datadog, it is alert about this possible problem

Not only alerts on a single computer but also alerts on performance problems to several users in the location where they are

I receive critical question alerts by email to be more informed of the system that may be causing unwanted damages to the company.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not see anything that I dislike about this monitoring platform I find the work it provides excellent to be calm that the computer or the app are good and will not lose information that is stored on the device
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The alerts that are sent are of considerable benefit because they warn of possible damages that may be caused and that can be fixed in time avoiding permanent damage or fatal damage

Analyze very well the performance of each app and the performance of the computer if it is consuming many resources

monitor app performance

  • February 26, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You can track the performance of each app you have

Quickly analyze the solution to the problems that may arise in the app and platforms

warning of possible damages that may be caused before the damage is greater and causes irreparable damage

calculate the rates, ratios, or averages and see the graphs in real time

you can receive the alerts by email if at the moment I am not in the workplace

I can silence all alerts with a single click
What do you dislike about the product?
Basically this platform is aimed at professional engineers because the programming language it has is very complex that is only understood by engineers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it benefits at the moment that it warns about the possible damages that can be caused before the damages are greater and can damage the app or the computer, showing the graphs of the ones that are performing the most in the system

It has a simple, clean and effective user interface

  • February 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has a simple, clean and effective user interface. It provides advanced graphs and proficient documentation. It has a good pricing model. It brilliantly measures memory and CPU usage
What do you dislike about the product?
Its installation can be confusing for a beginner. Logging capabilities of datadog are not very robust. The free version has limited features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog has support for variety of operating systems thus it helps in all monitoring that you need. Thus you can easily find the issues and their solutions.

It is a modern and different app

  • February 22, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
you can track a customer
Optimize resources
Detects usage patterns
you can set an alert notification message
It has more than 200 integrations and I see that more and more
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a pretty platform but quite complicated to understand and to manage because of my position in the company it helps me to understand a little more but even so I feel that there are parts of this platform that I do not understand

I feel that this platform is designed more for professional people in the area with extensive knowledge in the system because if there are people who execute this platform without having a wide knowledge it can fail in the attempt of the execution and programming
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
you can maintain a more stable and safe monitoring when you learn to manage the platform well, each time you are finding a benefit that contributes more to the company
