Complex APIs settings to get wanted outcome. No disconnected arrangements and apparatuses, cloud living arrangement is cool and current methodology, however a few frameworks can not be presented to open web due to security concerns, and neighborhood intermediaries can influence the speed of information exchange

Checking of cloud arrangements and examination of IT foundation both in cloud and on-premises.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Agonizing in setup, yet unfathomable after go-live.
Try not to dither to include numerous reconciliations, look through the coordination screens and include "everything" you have. regardless of whether you don't have explicit esteem now in a particular mix you may have a particular corralation of history required later on.

"Fast and it doesn't keep you from completing a few undertakings on the double"
What do you like best about the product?
Framework details, programming details, API endpoints, occasions, dashboards, alarms, versatile applications, across the board. Datadog has a ton of pre-manufactured arrangements that you can actualize in your foundation and in the event that you won't discover reasonable arrangement you can assemble your own, incredible for AWS checking. Great client support and documentation.It does not prevent different instruments that I'm working with, when I work in datadog it doesn't back off the PC or I square it and that appears to be extraordinary to me contrasted with different stages that when I open them back off the PC and I can not function admirably
What do you dislike about the product?
Absence of Azure observing apparatuses, Datadog is unpredictable in building your own answers. A bit unreasonably costly for it's usefulness There's loads of broadly utilized applications which log naturally to stderr, and this causes Datadog to arrange all that they log as a blunder, when it isn't the situation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have set screens so we're alarmed at whatever point our administrations are acting in a way that could connote an issue (ie, database having high idleness, high mistake rates in site etc)being ready to screen all the framework of the cloud enables us to know about everything that occurs, regardless of whether great or awful
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Generally AWS checking, it can accomplished something in Azure, however choise of arrangements is very limited,If you have even marginally complex foundation (ie, multiple kinds of microservices running) at that point it's probable you can profit by utilizing Datadog to screen that everything is running easily.
Amazing for the money
What do you like best about the product?
It lets me know when my servers are having issues when they happen, instead of when an end user on the server contacts us. This has been critical for our operations, as occasionally there are some rogue processes that hog all of the server resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have a great solution for PHP.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have had instances prior to using DataDog when a server's resources were full and we did not know about this until someone said a website was not working. Now we can stay on top of performance issues before they impact end users.
datadog marketplace 100% leaders
What do you like best about the product?
System stats, software stats, API endpoints, events, dashboards, alerts, mobile apps, all in one. Datadog has a lot of pre-built solutions that you can implement in your infrastructure and if you will not find suitable solution you can build your own, great for AWS monitoring. Good customer support and documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of Azure monitoring tools, Datadog is very complex in building your own solutions. A bit too expensive for it`s functionality,Not very good for Azure if you are going to use marketplace solutions. Most of these are made for AWS and you will have to make something similar by yourself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contact helpdesk prior to build your own solutions, maybe you just didn`t find the same on marketplace,Monitoring of systems and services for production SaaS applications. It helps us discover issues both before and after they happen, and we use the dashboards both for system status and for business level dashboarding.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Mostly AWS monitoring, it can done something in Azure, but choise of solutions is very limited
Easy way to monitor your entire infrastructure
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it integrates with other tools. Any infrastructure we make in AWS will show up in Datadog with metrics to alert on. The dashboards are also very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that the agent sometimes will take longer than expected to send metrics to Datadog.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to monitor all of our infrastructure with alerts and Datadog fit our needs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it!
Datadog has proven invaluable
What do you like best about the product?
The Datadog team keeps building new features that we need before we even know we need them! They are so quick to add features and fix bugs that we report.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not really a dislike but their APM and logging still lag behind some of the more mature products out there. They are rapidly improving both though and they're very much usable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building monitors and alerting on what matters rather than just alerting on any issues that arise. It's allowed our NOC to be more efficient in responding to critical events by filtering out the noise. It also provides a detailed yet simple view for non-engineer folks to see what's going on throughout our network.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely do a POC with Datadog. You'll be surprised at how easy it is to on-board employees and get them building monitors and dashboards. It's better than what you're using for monitoring and is rapidly becoming a great logging and APM solution.
My Experience with Datadog Cloud Based Monitoring Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Instant online chat support rather than waiting days for a return call. I also like that it is a java free web based program and that navigating the monitors via notification links is easy. Integration with an internal slack support channel helps organize monitoring into one channel rather than being mixed with email.
What do you dislike about the product?
For IP monitoring the IP has to be live to do the setup, would prefer if the setup could be done without the monitor being online yet but there is also an advantage to making sure it is up as part of the setup so that feature is both a like and dislike. We have had issues with monitors getting stuck and having to be restarted to clear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notification of devices that need network connectivity being offline, disk space, and memory usage. Not having to deal with java and being able to edit my own monitors rather than having a system administrator exclusively responsible to manage monitors results in more timely monitoring and less missed setups.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Their support is great, do not hesitate to pop up a chat any time you have a question. I was not involved in the actual pricing so I cannot speak to cost but I know the evaluation team would have taken it being affordable.
Logging, metrics and alerting all in one package
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to aggregate metrics to pull out outliers across a large group of processes/instances.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's difficult to drill down from metrics to logs especially when looking at aggregate groups.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring of web services hosted in AWS, troubleshooting and log spelunking
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Lots of features, but this produces a more complex UI and steeper learning curve
Simple to Deploy Tools
What do you like best about the product?
I liked how easy it was to get my on-prem and AWS systems into the same dashboard and system.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me, I would have liked to seen pricing based on data points ingested, not just node count. This can cause things to get pricey pretty fast.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had zero metric insights into our AWS systems. And internally, things like Zabbix and Nagios require a lot of work for little change. We were able to correlate AWS data to onsite date. In a simple, visual dashboard.
Great Monitoring Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The integration with Amazon. We can easily see our AWS performance, set up alerts, and easily respond to them.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's really hard to think of anything we don't like. Rewriting all of our alerts was painful, but we'd get that switching to any other tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to quickly alert on and respond to issues with our infrastructure.
