We use Datadog to assess logs and rum sessions & review the scope of our code. It's a fascinating tool, to be very honest; we switched over to it after using other services. Datadog is superior to its competitors, offering a one-stop shop for all your needs. Now, we're used to the platform and can't move forward without it.
