Thanks for that feedback - we've got a lot of work to do to make that more clear! We're still early in our journey so we’re not there yet, but we’re moving fast. We're working on a new collaborative UI for interacting with your data in a way that solves a lot of problems we've witnessed with current monitoring UIs (let me know if you want more detail). It's in early development and we haven't released it yet, so while Opstrace does have a UI now, it's currently limited to system management (adding/removing users and tenants). For interacting with data, we currently ship a Grafana instance per tenant. The roadmap has some basic information about this (might not be something you stumbled across). Let me know if I can clarify anything else. https://opstrace.com/docs/references/roadmap

Thanks for clarifying. I think all the great work you’re doing on this is at risk of being diminished by pushing the DataDog comparison so hard when really there is (currently) no comparison in my view.

Not to say you won’t get there, but why not shout about your current strengths right now (if you’re going to talk about the product) and not necessarily where you hope to be.

I only make this point because the “open source DataDog” headline just spins me off in the complete wrong direction as a newcomer and I end up confused and somewhat underwhelmed. With better positioning this wouldn’t have been the case!

That said, the project looks v interesting so keep up the good work and I hope you take my constructive criticism in the way it’s intended!
