"Datadog is easy to use and easy to deploy. It's a better solution compared to others on the market in terms of being budget friendly for our customers."

"It is easy to navigate the menu and create tests."
"Its integration definitely stands out. It provides seamless monitoring of all our systems, services, apps, and whatever else we secure and monitor. Visualizations have become simpler with dashboards. We are getting visibility into systems, services, and apps stack through a single pane of glass, which is good. We are able to put logs in context."

"The product could be improved by providing remote control to agents, enabling them to execute automation and collections without requiring another automation tool or integration."

"While the tool is robust with many different capabilities, users would greatly benefit from more examples in the documentation."
