We performed a comparison between Datadog and Entuity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"Even if we don't end up using Datadog, it revealed problems and optimizations to us that weren't obvious before."
"Having a wealth of information has helped us investigate outages, and having historical data helps us tune our system."
"Datadog has clear dashboards and good documentation."
"Straightforward to integrate and automate."
"The product has offered increased visibility via logging APM, metrics, RUM, etc."
"The observability pipelines are the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Excellent autocomplete for everything in the UI."
"If we have a large load for users using our basic Datadog, it will immediately fire off an alert notifying us either something's wrong or not."
"The initial setup of Entuity is easy and the full process took approximately 30 minutes."
"Event management and the geographical Google API-based network topology are the most valuable features of Entuity."
"Entuity's best feature is its ability to monitor a large number of devices."
"One of the most valuable features of Entuity is the user interface."
"I particularly like the theme and the dashboard that they have brought in this version. In the previous version, there was only a simple screen. There wasn't any dashboard. It was a simple view, but now, they have brought in a dashboard that gives the fields for the ops as well. They can get the data they want to see in a single place."
"The most valuable feature of Entuity is network mapping and information. When clicking on a particular location it can automatically survey the connectivity diagram for us. We can arrange this icon in any kind of formats, such as ring or mesh. The networking mapping can show the components and interconnectivity with the help of IP addresses and NetFlow."
"We find the SurePath component of this solution to be very valuable, as it gives us the path to whatever we are configuring."
"This is a product that is easy to deploy and maintain with a positive end-user experience."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"In the past two years, there have been a couple of outages."
"Once Datadog has gained wide adoption, it can often be overwhelming to both know and understand where to go to find answers to questions."
"The product is quite complex, and there are so many features that I either didn't know about or wasn't sure how to use."
"It does not have the best interface."
"The FinOps needs improvement."
"We have contact with many customers that cover many areas, so we have cases where the infrastructure administration could be improved."
"Geo-data is also something very critical that we hope to see in the future."
"The documentation leaves a lot to be desired for new users."
"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When it comes to the network, IP Address Management is a feature for which we have to use a different solution. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."
"Entuity could improve by having more integration because now network management is not a standalone solution. You have to integrate it with your network, applications, and everything else. We have to collect that information from those solutions or relevant managers. Additionally, the SLA dashboard should be improved."
"Entuity currently has APIs, but they are not straightforward. They are not flexible if an external system wants to communicate with Entuity or create an integration that is not available out of the box. Its APIs can be flexible so that they can be utilized for external integrations that are not available out of the box."
"We would like the backup element of this solution to be improved as, at present, it is very limited and does not have much scope for customization."
"In the most recent versions, Entuity has removed the Explorer navigation feature. This was very useful, and Entuity would be improved by restoring it."
"A typical user might want to see even more depth to the standard reporting and ease of integration."
"Entuity can improve the fetching of device configuration. The solution uses scripts and I could not understand them or find any recourses on the internet to learn about the language that is used in the script. It could be more user-friendly and the device configuration management could be enhanced."
"Entuity can expand its coverage on monitoring VoIP solutions a little bit more."
