We performed a comparison between Datadog and LastPass based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in AIOps."The ability to send notifications based on metadata from the monitor is helpful."
"The Datadog suite has allowed us to easily integrate log collection into all of our services and quickly detect unexpected changes in system data to declare security incidents."
"The integration into AWS is key as well as our software is currently bound to AWS."
"Straightforward to integrate and automate."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"It has scaled great. I haven't run into any problems anywhere that I've used it. They have handled everything that we have needed them to."
"The network map is crucial in identifying bottlenecks and determining what needs more attention."
"We find they have a very helpful alert system."
"Reduction in number of sensitive passwords stored insecurely on local systems."
"One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes."
"Scalability is fine, no issues with that, especially now that they have added different user-level permissions. That has made it a lot easier to delegate out certain features to have other people do."
"Tech support has been good. We haven't needed it much, because it is not a complex application. There is not that much you have to do with it."
"It's improved security; we don't have to worry about people storing password loosely and secure them."
"The most valuable feature is the liberty of keeping encrypted passwords and elevated information in a sealed vault."
"It is easy to use."
"It's always hard to put a value on return on investment. You avoid one breach and it's paid for a million times over. We got a penetration test company internally, just to see how secure our network is, and there happened to be one bit of software that had been overlooked by an external company that managed it. It hadn't been upgraded so that managed to get them into the network. They would've been able to access through the test thing a file that we had previously. If that was a real-life scenario they would have been able to get into our network and get full access to our organization's passwords. If they did get in, they would have gotten access to the cloud. The ROI we see is that we are completely secured compared to what we had previously where there was a vulnerability."
"We need more visibility into the error tracking dashboard."
"When the logs are too big, and Datadog splits them, the JSON format breaks and it is not so useful for us."
"Sometimes it’s difficult to customize certain queries to find specific things, specifically with the logging solution."
"We would like to see some versioning system for the Synthetic Tests so that we could have a backup of our tests since they are time-consuming to make and very easy to damage in a moment of error."
"The ease of implementation needs improvement."
"In the past two years, there have been a couple of outages."
"The pricing model could be simplified as it feels a bit outdated, especially when you look at the billing model of compute instances vs the containers instances."
"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 is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"I also don't like the add-in for Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, because when you do the add-in, you can actually save that to your credentials in your IE, and the problem is, if I left my screen open, or any of the IT people leave their screen open someone could come up and access all their credentials in LastPass without having to put a password in within your own network. I don't like that functionality. We've banned that from any of our staff adding that as an add-in because we see that as a security risk."
"Its user interface should be better, and there should probably be more information about scalability."
"One thing I wish LastPass had is an integration with Active Directory, not for synchronizing users but to actually manage, in some way, privileged accounts by replacing the password of LastPass itself."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
"The management through the plugin is poor. It consumes tons of client resources especially as an administrator."
"The biggest thing is there is no good way to have LastPass rotate passwords without human intervention. Right now, we have to go into each folder, then rotate and manually update each password. It can be done it by loading a bunch of passwords into a spreadsheet, but this makes the whole process insecure because then the passwords have been noted into a spreadsheet which have to be upload. We have to go into 40 to 50 applications and manually update passwords, because we don't view their solution of writing a bunch of passwords on a spreadsheet, then uploading them as a secure solution. This should be done internally within LastPass."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
