We are thrilled to announce that, for the second consecutive year, Datadog has been named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Digital Experience Monitoring. We believe that this recognition reflects our continued focus on helping customers observe, secure, and act on everything that matters across their technology stack.

Datadog’s unified observability and security platform breaks down silos across frontend, backend, and infrastructure—bringing business, DevOps, SRE, and security teams together to understand and optimize critical user journeys.

By providing deep visibility into user interactions and application performance, Datadog enables organizations to deliver consistent, reliable experiences across every touchpoint. As digital environments grow more complex, our AI-powered platform helps organizations stay ahead by automatically detecting anomalies, surfacing user friction through dead click tracking, and uncovering behavioral patterns with heatmaps. With integrated incident management and on-call workflows, teams can resolve issues faster and shift from reactive firefighting to proactive optimization to deliver digital experiences that strengthen customer satisfaction and business performance.

• Real User Monitoring (RUM) provides full-fidelity visibility into every session, enabling accurate troubleshooting and performance insights while using dynamic retention filters to control costs.
• Product Analytics empowers teams to make smarter product decisions by turning real user data, like adoption trends, user journeys, and in-app behavior, into quantitative insights that guide prioritization and improve digital experiences.
• Session Replay captures user interactions and performance data across web and mobile, recreating sessions for end-to-end troubleshooting. Paired with RUM or Product Analytics, it connects technical performance to real user behavior, helping teams resolve issues faster and prioritize product decisions with richer insights.
• Synthetic Testing and Monitoring integrates synthetic tests directly into your CI pipelines to catch issues early, ensuring your applications are issue-free before reaching end users.
• Error Tracking automatically groups and surfaces critical errors to enable rapid issue resolution across your entire technology stack for more efficient troubleshooting.
• Datadog’s AI engine provides automated alerts, insights, and root cause analyses that draw from observability data across the entire Datadog platform for faster resolution and improved user experiences.
• Application Performance Monitoring and Software Catalog integrate seamlessly with RUM to provide a comprehensive view of your application, enhancing collaboration, incident management, and real-time insights with end-to-end service ownership.
• Feature Flags give teams an integrated way to safely and confidently manage feature delivery, with real-time observability to track performance, detect regressions, and protect user experience. Sign up for the Preview now.
