1. Limited Scorecard integrations: While you can leverage almost any information from within Datadog for usage in Scorecard creation, there are limited integrations with 3rd party Static Code Analysis tools and security tools.
2. No scaffolding or actions: Datadog does not provide scaffolding or developer self-serve workflows as actions like other tools in the category.
1. Free: Complimentary with the APM services
