NEW YORK, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Datadog<\/u><\/a>, Inc. (NASDAQ: DDOG), the leading AI-powered observability and security platform, today announced it has been named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Observability Platforms, 2026<\/em>. This is the sixth consecutive year Gartner has positioned Datadog as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant.<\/p>\n

Datadog was positioned highest in Ability to Execute in the 2026 Gartner\u00ae Magic Quadrant\u2122 for Observability Platforms.<\/p>\n

“We believe being recognized as a Leader for the sixth consecutive year reflects the depth of investment Datadog has made in helping teams navigate the complexity of building AI- and LLM-powered applications,\u201d said Yanbing Li, Chief Product Officer at Datadog. \u201cDatadog invests more than $1 billion in R&D (non-GAAP) annually \u2014 from contributions to OpenTelemetry and OpenLineage to the capabilities we ship every day \u2014 because our customers need answers, not more complexity.”<\/p>\n

\u201cDatadog gives our teams real-time visibility into how customers experience our products, allowing us to identify and resolve issues before they impact end users,\u201d said Daniel Perschonok, VP of Cloud, Data, & Security Services at Experian Consumer Services. \u201cWhen we launched our AI chatbot, EVA, LLM Observability provided immediate insight into model performance and customer interactions, helping us deliver a stable, high-quality AI experience from day one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Customer feedback is vital to Datadog\u2019s product innovation. Below are some recent reviews of Datadog, a 2025 Gartner Peer Insights\u2122 Customers’ Choice for Observability Platforms, from the company\u2019s profile on Gartner Peer Insights\u2122<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cAs an APM user, I have found Bits AI to be a significant improvement for troubleshooting and debugging,\u201d said an IT associate at an IT services company<\/u><\/a>. \u201cIn the past, effective debugging often required deep knowledge of the application and extensive experience investigating issues. Bits AI has made the process much easier by helping identify potential root causes and guiding the investigation more efficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDatadog has been a game changer for us as we moved from a diversified set of products to a single unified platform for all of our observability needs,\u201d said a software developer at a healthcare and biotech company<\/u><\/a>. \u201cWe are better, faster and more aligned as a technology org throughout the entire development lifecycle and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDatadog has been a fantastic partner,\u201d said a director of IT at a travel and hospitality company<\/u><\/a>. \u201cThe product has become more useful every year and with the age of AI, we are seeing more useful features being introduced almost monthly. We also appreciate that the account team is very engaged with the enterprise and the product engineering team turns around feedback quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Datadog’s unified observability and security platform breaks down organizational silos and enables IT operations, development, security, and business teams to collaborate more effectively and take action based on a single source of truth.<\/p>\n
