Integration with a lot of products and services, AWS monitoring is good enough

Monitoring of Azure resources is weak, all solutions requires agent deployment, so for SaaS/PaaS services you need to deploy additional VM just for agent

Mostly used for AWS resources monitoring
Recommendations to others considering the product:
DataDog will work for you if you are using on-primise or AWS based resources. For Azure you should consider another solution
Quick growing cloud monitoring solution

Good possibilities for AWS resources monitoring, integration with most of software used in our company

Azure monitoring still needs some work, you can monitor VMs but Cloud services fmonitoring features are still not enough

Mostly used for AWS based VMs and Services monitoring
Easy and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy and quick to set up. And very flexible on how to interpret, and massage, the incoming metrics.
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting up the various views can be a little less than intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
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.
Excellent server and application monitoring
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.
Good Monitoring and timeseries aggerator and viewer tool
What do you like best about the product?
Monitoring based on thresholds, moving averages, anomalies detection. Also basic server integration works "from the box". Also product moves forward all the time with new integrations, and features.
What do you dislike about the product?
Disk space integration isn't working completely as expected. also per process monitor needs more love. Didn't try APM yet since my current stack isn't supported
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No need to setup multiple monitoring => graphing + monitoring => alerting pipelines and integrations with various tools, everything works from the box
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't hesitate to add multiple integrations, search the integration screens and add "everything" you have. even if you don't have specific value now in a specific integration you might have a specific corralation of history needed in the future. Also use the API to add your specific metrics and KPI
Excellent for alerts
What do you like best about the product?
Seamless integration with slack and insight into metrics
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing that I can think of, liked using the product
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Flexibility and insights
What do you like best about the product?
They thought out the product very well.
The UI is easy to use and understand, setting up dashboards and editing them is super easy for anyone technical or not.
The alerts are quite useful and powerful.
The possibilities are endless of what you can measure and how you can take advantage of.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be easy to run into decision paralysis. There is so much that can be done with it that is hard to know where to start and what to measure.
Recently they have been puting out more blog posts and suggestions on industry standards and best practices, which is a great way to address this (if you keep up with their blog) otherwise it would be great to have this in-app.
