Versatile tool, would love better wallboard support

  • January 30, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
* VERY flexible, you can track pretty much any metric
* Sources data from the standard statsd
* Dashboard functionality
* Easy sharing of dashboards
* Great integration with many services like AWS, Chef, Couchbase, JVM, HAProxy, MySQL etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
* The datadog agent eats a bit too much memory
* The front-end lets you create graphs of virtually any kind, but it's a challenge to make a TV-friendly dashboard that would be readable from distance.
* There are also issues like the user being periodically logged out or the dashboard URL being lost when datadog is down -- every now and then I have to manually come over to the computer connected to a wall TV and fix issues
* It's also annoying that I can't just convert a dashboard between a TimeBoard and a ScreenBoard - it seems like the difference is mostly in the representation, but I have to re-do the whole board if I want to display it on a big screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a robust, versatile solution to track a variety of metrics like number of errors, load and response times, job execution stats, db connection usage, track runs of scheduled tasks etc. Datadog allowed us to implement all of that with one tool, and in a way that we don't have to change the code to change the representation of data. It's a great tool to track the health and performance of your services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I haven't used many alternatives, but Datadog seems like a great versatile tool. Adding new metrics and creating new dashboards is fairly easy, Datadog will do all the hard work.

I hope they implement better support for the use case of putting dashboards on a wall TV, which means:
* I want to set it and forget it. No log outs, no redirects to error or downtime pages that need manual intervention when things get back to work
* Better support for large graphs that are visible from a distance, with no application chrome visible

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to configure and report to. Also, very easy to set up dashboards and see visualisation of data.

Slow real-time updating of visualisation. There's at least a 20 sec lag between reporting of a metric and updating the graph/metric count on the dashboard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reports on service activity, traffic patterns, extremely convenient to track website health, type and count of requests made, etc.
