Summary

Datadog Forms offers engineering teams a streamlined solution for creating and managing interactive forms directly within Datadog, addressing the inefficiencies of traditional form processes that rely on disjointed tools like spreadsheets and external builders. By embedding forms into their existing workflows, teams can automate tasks such as developer onboarding, production readiness checklists, developer experience surveys, and service request routing, all while maintaining data consistency and visibility. This integration allows for automated workflows triggered by form submissions, providing structured data collection that enhances compliance, resource allocation, and feedback analysis. Datadog Forms enables teams to visualize and analyze form responses, correlating them with performance metrics to identify areas for improvement and automation opportunities, ultimately aiming to reduce manual effort, improve data traceability, and ensure consistent adherence to organizational standards.
