I also love what Datadog built as an integrated operational platform.</p> <p>If you only want a tribal answer, stop here: for app-centric teams with strong APM focus, New Relic still punches above its weight. For platform-heavy operations across infra, security, delivery, and incident flow, Datadog usually wins.</p> <p>But the right answer depends on team shape, telemetry habits, and how much operational burden you are willing to carry.</p>
