    Datadog - Unified observability and monitoring platform

    5.0
    Feb 6, 2026
    We have integrated Datadog for our infra and application monitoring. What I like about Datadog is that it's a unified observability and monitoring platform across the entire stack. It brings together infrastructure monitoring, APM, logs, traces and even security metrics into one platform. Dashboards are highly customizable and interactive, showing real-time data. This allowed our team to detect anomalies quicker and visualize trends and the health of our infra components.
