"For us to have visibility into our app stack and the hardware we run has been highly beneficial."
"Datadog has flexibility."
"The CCM, Workflows, Logs, APM, and RUM are all useful aspects of the solution."
"The seamless integration between Datadog and hundreds of apps makes onboarding new products and teams a breeze."
"Flame graphs are pretty useful for understanding how GraphQL resolves our federated queries when it comes to identifying slow points in our requests. In our microservice environment with 170 services."
"Anything I've wanted to do, I found a way to get it done through Datadog."
"Having a wealth of information has helped us investigate outages, and having historical data helps us tune our system."
"The best thing about this solution is that you can check for the infrastructure and system updates that you might need to be compliant with the Cloud."
"Has really nice roll-up dashboards."
"Fewer vulnerabilities have been observed in the four years we have used the solution."
"Mobile application is the most valuable feature for us. We can monitor all the storages on our phones. It's really good."
"The tool for forecasting capacity is valuable."
"I'm not sure what kind of features are in the roadmap right now, but I encourage the development of features for defining your organization, and allowing the visibility of what kind of metrics you can get. Those features would be really useful for us."
"It can have a more modernized pricing mechanism. We're actually working with them to figure out how to become more modular and have a better and more modernized pricing mechanism. The issue with Datadog is that you have to buy the whole suite of different products, and you kind of get stuck in the old utilization of 40% of their suite. Most organizations today break down between application development, networking, and security. Therefore, there should be a way to break down different modules into just app dev, infosec, networking, etc. Customers have various needs across their business lines, and sometimes, they're just not willing to have tools that they're not using 100%. AppDynamics is probably a little bit better in terms of being modular."
"The FinOps needs improvement."
"The solution should provide alerts for cloud outages."
"Datadog is expensive."
"To be very fair, I haven't had enough experience with Datadog to pick out improvements."
"Lacks some flexibility in the customization."
"Datadog could be improved if it could detect other software in a container or server."
"Doesn't do well in terms of integrating with technologies other than Dell."
"Supporting legacy systems is an area that can be improved."
"PowerScale is the only file system offered and that is limiting."
"The reporting capabilities of this solution could be improved."
"In terms of improvement, they should enhance the product range."
