Pros/Cons
Pros
- Overall, I'm very satisfied with DataDog and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and comprehensive monitoring and analytics platform.
- I noticed that this monitoring system is very flexible, you can track pretty much any metric, which is great. Great integration with many services like AWS, Chef, Couchbase, JVM, HAProxy, MySQL etc.
- Best user experience-Unified view of all metrics. It is a lifesaver when troubleshooting performance issues-A broad range of product offerings.
Cons
- Some of the detailed views of where bottlenecks are troubling a system can be lacking. Something we've seen a lag getting data refreshed in the dashboards.
- Not have rate limiter to control some bad metrics. Not have a mobile app, in some case can be faster to get some alerts.
- Could have a mobile app so we can have mobile notifications, It could be hard to integration with others tools.
Pros
- I don't have to worry about scaling my ELK stack, those considerations are handled for us. Additionally the support is terrific, very responsive and the API documentation is outstanding.
- Several times we have used logz.io to track down issues in real time with ease. In addition, if you have a suggestion or question, the response time is outstanding.
- Easy to use, intuitive tool helps us and is very useful in what we propose to do. We're reasonably satisfied.
Cons
- Subscription plans should be more progressive, sometimes if the maximum event ingestion is met, the events are lost.
- Ad hoc parsing of messages and extraction of values (a la Loggly) is missing. Missing ability to set all filters in GUI before the query is actually performed (suspended update).
- Elasticsearch complexity requires some hand-holding, i.e. index failures. Some slowness in searches when the service is busy.
