4. Datadog

By Datadog

4.5

(873 Ratings)

It is the source of truth for our performance engineering. I often use the application performance monitoring and synthetic tab. The ability to link a failed synthetic API test directly to a backend trace ID has saved us countless hours of debugging intermittent issues. However, the billing model is complex, and you have to be extremely careful with custom metrics and log indexing, or the cost will explode.

5. Amazon CloudWatch

By Amazon Web Services (AWS)

4.5

(717 Ratings)

My overall experience with AWS CloudWatch is positive. We use CloudWatch to monitor our managed service platform hosted in the AWS cloud environment, starting with basic instance-level metrics such as CPU utilization and Network I/O etc. For detailed monitoring, we deployed CloudWatch Agent on target servers to enable monitoring of additional metrics including memory utilization, logs, traces, and process or service monitoring. We also use CloudWatch to monitor other AWS services such as storage, database, and load balancer etc as its out-of-the box capability. We have integrated CloudWatch with external tools/systems (like observability tools) to collect monitoring data, configured threshold-based alerts and automated incident creation in our ITSM platform. Overall, CloudWatch provides reliable monitoring capabilities that align well with AWS-based infrastructure requirements.

7. Azure Monitor

By Microsoft

4.3

(360 Ratings)

Full stack alerting tool that does its job, but requires a lot of time and effort to set up properly and fine tune so you don't get overwhelmed with notifications and end up spending too much for log ingestion/storage. Fairly complex and it would be nice if it was simpler and quicker to get going and use. Navigating the Microsoft bill can be dreadful when you're trying to figure out what is causing your cost increases. Microsoft support leaves much to be desired.
