About this update from Datadog, Inc.

Positioned highest for Ability to Execute among all vendors evaluated NEW YORK, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Datadog , 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 . This is the sixth consecutive year Gartner has positioned Datadog as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant. Datadog was positioned highest in Ability to Execute in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Observability Platforms. "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," said Yanbing Li, Chief Product Officer at Datadog. "Datadog invests more than $1 billion in R&D (non-GAAP) annually — from contributions to OpenTelemetry and OpenLineage to the capabilities we ship every day — because our customers need answers, not more complexity." "Datadog gives our teams real-time visibility into how customers experience our products, allowing us to identify and resolve issues before they impact end users," said Daniel Perschonok, VP of Cloud, Data, & Security Services at Experian Consumer Services. "When 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."

Below are some recent reviews of Datadog, a 2025 Gartner Peer Insights™ Customers' Choice for Observability Platforms, from the company's profile on Gartner Peer Insights™ : "As an APM user, I have found Bits AI to be a significant improvement for troubleshooting and debugging," said an IT associate at an IT services company .
