Gartner® has published the 2022 Magic Quadrant™ for APM and Observability, an annual report that evaluates vendors in this category. We’re honored that Datadog has been recognized as a “Leader” within this Magic Quadrant report for the second consecutive year, with the highest position for Ability to Execute.

Customer feedback plays an important part in all analyst reports, and we believe this recognition is a testament to how important our customers are in shaping our products and services to solve the most complex challenges in their cloud and hybrid environments.

As the vendor with the highest position for Ability to Execute, Datadog’s unified approach to APM and observability breaks down organizational silos and creates a fully integrated experience that meets customer needs and solves existing challenges. Whether it’s IT operations, security, or development teams, users also identify products like Watchdog—Datadog’s AI engine that simplifies monitoring cloud-native architectures—and Real User Monitoring (RUM) as key differentiators. From accelerating root cause analysis to identifying end-user pain points, Datadog supports customers’ day-to-day workflows across every layer of their stack.

We feel that Datadog’s recognition in this category wouldn’t be possible without the engagement and feedback from our customers across the world. We are grateful to the users who continue to share their experiences and help us improve our platform and advance our mission.

Additionally, if you’d like to share your experience as a Datadog customer, you can upload your review here.
