What do you dislike about the product?
1. The initial deployment of the tool can be a little challenging especially if you have not used the tool before.
2. The delays in the monitoring agents can be reduced as sometimes it is very critical to receive the alerts in real time and delays can lead to system failures.
3. The pricing of the tool is also a bit high as compared to other APM's.

Monitor All The Things
What do you like best about the product?
Datadog's myriad integrations make it useful for monitoring just about any web stack you can imagine.
What do you dislike about the product?
The permissions model for dashboards make it a free-for-all. You have two choices, admin or unprotected. If the dashboards are unprotected, anyone can edit them. In larger team environments where users have varying levels of skill and a different view of which metrics are important, this can create a mess.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datadog provides visibility into our system performance by allowing us to visualize and monitor telemetry and metrics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I really do like this product. If you have a large number of servers, it can get expensive compared to an open source solution. However, managing an OSS solution that provides all of what Datadog can will be time-intensive. Datadog just works.
Lots of integrations to work with and monitor
What do you like best about the product?
Integrations and quick follow up from Datadog team.
What do you dislike about the product?
The features you get by subscribing to the higher tiers. But haven't used is for long.

Data collection at scale

Data Dog is really great at collecting data and give real-time perfomance metrics.
It is super flexible and work for all the technologies that we are using.
Also it is super easy too configure an alerting system like Pagerduty to notify us if something is odd.

What do you dislike about the product?
Within Data Dog, the dashboarding is quite hard to figure out.
There is time were too much information is just disturbing. Data Dog could fall in this pattern if you don't design properly your dashboard.

One of the best data monitoring tools
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to integrate with almost all of the cloud services is the best thing I like about datadog. Having used it for almost 7-8 months I found out that you can configure logs for even the smallest of unexpected behaviours in datadog
What do you dislike about the product?
Would've appreciated if they offered a free plan with limited functionality for early-stage startups. Currently they only have a 14days trial period
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using datadog as a monitoring system in case of failure. Having already used cloudwatch I think datadog offer tons of integrations and customizations out of the box
