Automated Incident Management

End-to-end incident management integrated in the Datadog platform. No context switching or manual processes.

Users can automatically detect, triage, and resolve incidents directly in the Datadog app while consulting monitoring data from across the platform.

At Olo it's critical to always have our finger on the pulse of our systems in order to keep restaurants up and running. While Datadog is already an important part of that, the release of integrated Incident Management can further improve our team's ability to respond quickly and effectively, in those times it matters most.
