A Reliable Server Monitoring

What differentiates Datadog from other similar products?
Datadog is very impactful in serving the application process to ensure that we're receiving data and data events in good health from clients' websites. Warning tools are always clutch in letting us be active with queries and executing immediate solutions. Most of my knowledge using Datadog has been outstanding.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The choice for integration makes it the most preferable and liked aspect among all. Its ease to perform integration is also very fantastic. Its capability to get complete transparency into requests and monitoring, troubleshooter, and boost up all their functionality from one dashboard. This software is pretty powerful and has a user-friendly interface. It directs to set up recordings, warnings, and alarming.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I am highly satisfied with the data dog and would recommend it to all my colleagues and friends so they can take full advantage of it when they need it. I am totally satisfied with the services. Datadog has features that do not need an expert to work on. One can quickly take note of spikes and distribute the workload.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you're a cloud-based software corporation, you should try Datadog. They are a tough leader in the space for a cause. Datadog will gauge your business's data requirements, and if there is something it can't do now, it perhaps will in the next few months or a year.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Effective Service
- Caring

Much more than just logging
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Datadog from other similar products?
Easy to use and implement. Vendor support is great
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I was impressed with the integrations part of DataDog. Our main goal was to centralize activity and audit logs of critical systems in our organization. We were able to integrate most of our systems in a matter of hours: JumpCloud, Gsuite, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Auth0 and more. The instructions were easy to follow, and an integration usually takes only a few minutes.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Easy to use, but a bit pricey and the billing is just horrible. Log parsing could be improved. The logging format is not standard across machines when you have multiple devices with different OS. If you want standardization, you must set up pipelines to ingest and parse the logs, which I found a bit tedious.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Ask the vendor for more Training/ learning videos.
Pros
- Performance Enhancing
- Enables Productivity
