GK Gaurav k. Team Lead Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 1/9/2026 "Comprehensive APM with Installation Challenges" 3/5 What do you like best about Datadog? I like Datadog for its real-time traces and the ability to connect real user monitoring (RUM) with application performance monitoring (APM). This is very useful for me because it helps trace errors and map them with the real user experience. I also find it easy to reproduce cases with the detailed summary available in the dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Datadog? I find the installation process a bit complex, especially when setting it up on a Docker-based setup. It's very much difficult to set up compared to a normal VM-based server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Datadog solving and how is that benefiting you? I use Datadog to check latency, pinpoint errors, and trace errors effectively.
