DataDog will work for you if you are using on-primise or AWS based resources. For Azure you should consider another solution

Monitoring of relevant metrics from multiples applications. Can aggregate or receive already aggregated data.
Very straightforward
What do you like best about the product?
At other places I've worked, we had to rely on different types of infrastructure -- Datadog does all that. Its very time saving. Datadog has alerting events and metrics all in one place; This was a huge plus, other solutions were trying to treat monitoring as a multi-faceted problem. Datadog treated it as one problem. Also, We no longer use Nagios for alerting, we use Datadog’s alarms, and then we push the data into PagerDuty.
What do you dislike about the product?
The performance, especially when were drilling into metrics we've been running for a year and a half. When you're launching old data it can get slow. Also, more granular control over dashboard sharing. Timeboard sharing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use standard and custom metrics for every new system we roll out for 360 degree visibility into our systems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'm an advocate of Datadog -- go for it.

What do you like best about the product?
Datadog’s integrated solution for monitoring applications, services, and servers makes it easy to spot and troubleshoot problems early.

The setup and configuration of Dashboards and Monitors could be easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Datadog for application and server monitoring. It has helped reduce downtime, spot problems early, and aid in troubleshooting solutions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Datadog is an excellent monitoring tool. However, be prepared to spend some things me setting up and configuring alerts and dashboards.
