NEW YORK — Datadog, Inc. (NASDAQ: DDOG), the monitoring and security platform for cloud applications, today announced it has been named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Observability Platforms, 2024. This is the fourth consecutive year Gartner has positioned Datadog as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant.
The Gartner Magic Quadrant for Observability Platforms, formerly known as the Gartner Magic Quadrant for APM and Observability, is a culmination of the Gartner research of the APM and observability market. A Magic Quadrant provides a graphical competitive positioning of four types of technology providers, in markets where growth is high and provider differentiation is distinct: Leaders execute well against their current vision and are well positioned for tomorrow; Visionaries understand where the market is going or have a vision for changing market rules, but do not yet execute well; Niche Players focus successfully on a small segment, or are unfocused and do not out-innovate or outperform others; Challengers execute well today or may dominate a large segment, but do not demonstrate an understanding of market direction.
Customer feedback is vital to Datadog’s product innovation. Below are two anonymized reviews of Datadog from the company’s profile on Gartner Peer Insights™:
“Datadog is actually fantastic for our team. We monitor our endpoints through Datadog, we have customized Dashboards for specific experiences, and we set up monitors for our endpoints/services. Datadog gives us the ability to tie these monitors into Microsoft Teams so we immediately know when a service is impacted or there hasn’t been utilization of a certain flow for a fixed amount of time. Datadog has so many uses for us!” – Group Product Manager at a Healthcare and Biotech company.
“Datadog excels as a comprehensive monitoring and analytics platform offering a seamless experience for tracking the performance of applications, infrastructure and logs. Its intuitive interface, robust features and extensive integrations make it a must have for business asking [for] actionable insights and efficient troubleshooting.” – Product Specialist at an IT services vendor.
“Customer feedback helps to shape our roadmap and product innovation. It’s critical for us to understand customers’ needs so that we can provide capabilities that solve the problems they face on a daily basis,” said Amit Agarwal, President at Datadog. “It’s great to see customers resonating with our product direction and offering feedback for how we can continue to improve our unified platform.”
