What do you like best about Datadog?

Datadog is a powerful tool that gives us greater confidence in our company's systems and enhances our ability to detect outages. It offers a wide range of features, most of which we actively use. Datadog provides essential insights into our systems, which helps us investigate problems, identify issues, and monitor performance, these being just a few of the ways we rely on Datadog. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datadog?

The cost is one of Datadog's biggest drawbacks, there are some products that would be helpful to use but the cost makes them impractical. The cost of Mobile App Testing testing comes to mind as an example for this.

Additionally, we have experienced some frustration due to pricing changes. Our previous SKUs were grandfathered, but we were eventually required to switch to the newer, more expensive SKU pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Datadog solving and how is that benefiting you?

Datadog helps gives our company confidence in knowing that our systems are being monitored and that issues can be detected and addressed by our observability team promptly. We also use the information collected in Datadog to assess the overall health of our systems and drive investigations for any issues detected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
