TrueSight Capacity Optimization vs. Datadog

Well suited to physical, local and public cloud systems. Creates good reports for users and directors.

DataDog Is well suited to all of the Infrastructure Monitoring Solutions, DB monitoring, and other Network monitoring also. It's not well suited because it cannot give perfect Infrastructure recommendations for our use case but also For example: If we are using AWS DB to monitor performance insights then Datadog is less effective there because AWS gives very niche recommendations.

• Fully automated
• Very simple to use
• Business oriented metrics may be used

• APIs, the ability to interact with the data we pull into data dog is key. We port the information over to Servicenow, so the ability to pull everything into DataDog, then Servicenow, is a key component of our success here at Wayfair.
• Simple Interface - clean, useful, effective. Allows users to use DataDog for one reason, get work done.
• Lightweight agent on hosts

• Training new users on how to build reports can be time consuming.
• Mapping transactions has proved a bit hard.

• We had a couple "integrations" that had some issues during setup, but Support addressed them very quickly
• Unnecessary alerts about DataDog components...by the time I see them, they're almost always also fixed
• I wish there was a DataDog mobile app that would have dedicated alerts (configurable per alert to override Do Not Disturb setting) instead of relying on emails notifications that could be overlooked in the midst of many incoming emails around the same time.

Mathematical correlations are the added value of the tool

The user interface is quite intuitive with the exception of the network map. As a deployer of software, it is trivial to setup.

is very reliable

absolutly no, is very available and fast

Because i never thanks to be alone

The support team usually gets it right. We did have a rather complicate issue setting up monitoring on a domain controller. However, they are usually responsive and helpful over chat. The downside would be I don’t think they have any phone support. If that is important to you this might not be a good fit.

because Moviri is very proessional

is very simple and ready to use

We have used a bespoke tool previously and TSCO is much easier to use and provides greater returns in regards to reporting.

We are still trying other products, but people still like Datadog. After setting up a dashboard, it's great for monitoring instances on Datadog. Also, the DevOps team had a good time setting up Datadog. It means Datadog was way easier to set up compared to those others.

Horizontal growth

• Only recently purchased but we are seeing positive signs on how this will provide us with ROI.

• Visibility into website issues and performance problems has improved our company communication.
• Handling and detecting site issues faster has improved customer satisfaction and retention.
• Configuration of the Datadog site can take a bit of time and we lost a bit of developer time during that process.
