    "Very easy to use"

    Posted 2024-06-13

    Pros: I have all the essential info in my dashboard, or just 1 or 2 clicks away. Very easy to use and intuitive.

    Cons: It could be less pricy. A bit too expensive for small teams.

    Overall: Overall my experience is very good. Even if it is pricy, it helps me and my team a lot to be in control of our data.

    "Datadog review"

    Posted 2022-12-01

    Pros: It has easy to use configuration tools which allows you to quickly configure and customize the metrics and alerts you need to monitor your systems.
    It also provides comprehensive analytics and insights into your infrastructure and applications, so you can make informed decisions about how to improve your performance.

    Cons: There's not a lot of third-party integrations, which could limit its usefulness for some specific use cases.
    The alerting options could be limited for specific types of configurations which could be an issue.

    Overall: Overall its a great product, one feature I really like is the sensitive data scanner which is helpful when building compliance needy products.
