Where it wins. Its best score is 7.2 in LLM & Agent Evals, where enterprise-framed prompts pull it in, and it earns a 14% mention rate in Incident Management, enough to stay on the board.
Where it loses. A 0% first-pick rate across both categories means AI models reach for PagerDuty or Arize AI before Datadog surfaces, and in LLM & Agent Evals it is invisible across six of the most purchase-intent prompt themes, including best overall and use-case fit.
