Pros

“By bringing metrics, application performance monitoring (APM), and log management into one interface, it gives developers and operations teams a practical way to monitor fast-moving environments like cloud services and containerized systems.”
KH

Kira H.

Software consultant

“Only a few minutes are required to setup the monitoring agents and we have pre-built integrations for cloud infrastructure that help our IT team to save a lot of manual configuration time.”
EA

Elizabeth A.

Systems Adninistrator

“It replaced stitching together separate metrics, logs, and tracing tools with one correlated platform, which shortened incident resolution and gave the team much better visibility into production.”

Kaynan S.

Software Engineer

Pros

“It was simple, and has good customization options, like set the interval, which helps to avoid problems with some firewalls for security reasons.”
RS

Rafael S.

IT Manager

“PingPlotter had the ability not only to show the problem but write a screenshot of the packet loss to a folder which made it easier to prove to the ISP that there indeed WAS a problem with the feed.”
SF

Stafford F.

Network Administrator

“great tool that provides longer term monitoring of our NBN service.”
MS

Marcus S.

director

Cons

“The biggest downside of Datadog is the cost, especially for larger organizations that generate a high volume of logs and monitoring data. While the platform provides many valuable features, pricing can become difficult to manage as usage grows.”
EV

Edwin V.

Dev Manager

“Pricing is the big drawback: costs can climb quickly and unpredictably as you add hosts, custom metrics, and log ingestion, so you have to actively manage what you send.”

Kaynan S.

Software Engineer

“The pricing can also become expensive as usage, data volume, and the number of monitored services increase.”

Beulah G.

Senior business analyst

Cons

“It was the very minute complete packet loss drops that was causing all kind of h*** with our business phones. ”
SF

Stafford F.

Network Administrator

“It's a bit confusing when you're using a bunch of tabs and monitoring different networks and/or different target sites.”

Ryan S.

Associate Operations Specialist

“the inability to make comparisons of time ranges simultaneously in a single analysis”
