Datadog APM pros and cons

  • With powerful tools for monitoring and troubleshooting, Datadog APM simplifies the process of diagnosing and fixing performance issues across applications, which enhances operational efficiency.

  • Datadog sends real-time alerts when something goes wrong, enabling users to address problems immediately and prevent further disruptions.

  • Datadog APM offers proactive monitoring of complex, distributed systems, providing teams with the insights they need to prevent potential issues before they impact operations.

  • The platform enables faster identification of application availability issues, allowing teams to resolve problems quickly and minimize downtime.

  • While the platform provides detailed insights, the sheer volume of data generated can be overwhelming for teams without the proper filtering and configuration, making it difficult to focus on critical issues.

  • Datadog's pricing structure can be expensive, especially for smaller businesses, as costs can scale quickly depending on the number of monitored hosts and the level of usage.

Great tool for tracking almost everything

What do you like best? I love how easy it is to design dashboards and the fact that DD pulls data from almost any part of our infrastructure. What do you dislike? Datadog does not integrate directly with Azure alerts or MongoDB Atlas. Recommendations to others considering the product: Verify that Datadog integrates directly with the tools that you use. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We are easily able to monitor our cloud ...

Wonderful analytics for internal and cloud connected systems

What do you dislike? Not great for our small operation due to cost. Recommendations to others considering the product: Excellent monitoring product with plenty of deep dive abilities. Great dashboards. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? ...

Good app, but with a learning curve

What do you like best? Fully customizable dashboards make it easy to see the things you look at most often. Also, it has a ton of integrations for alert systems like pagerduty and VictorOps, ticketing systems, AWS, etc. What do you dislike? A lot of documentation found on their site is out of date. This makes it difficult to get things set up properly at times. Recommendations to others considering the product: Get as much time in with the trial as you can to make sure everything ...

Datadog kind-of hard to use

What do you like best? The public dashboards are really useful for displaying and monitoring apps around the office. There are plenty of integrations and webhooks we can use to monitor our applications. What do you dislike? Training is hard to find, and when I do find it, a lot of the instructions are outdated, or not Windows friendly. The learning curve was higher for me, and it discouraged me from moving forward with Datadog. I've sent emails to their training team and they said ...

Datadog Works almost Like Magic

What do you like best? Although I'm not involved in the Deployment of Datadog, I use it's service often to review alerts, logs, and Server Statuses. Recently I was tasked with building a Dashboard in React/Node. When it came time to figure out how to import Datadog without API access I found it was extremely easy to just pull an iframe from whatever charts/graphs I wanted. What do you dislike? Although I don't have exact figures it's my understanding that Datadog is rather costly. All ...

perfect app

What do you like best? the monitoring that Datadog poses about the apop in the cloud and the database servers of the company is something spectacular and very reliable because I can work on my pc computer with the peace of mind that the whole system is working well and that if something is for being damaged or eating a lot of resources Datadog is going to make it known to close programs or visualize the app that is presenting problems and solve them before it is too late and it is a more ...
