Built specifically for debugging complex, high-cardinality distributed systems. It's best suited to engineering teams at scale that want a proven, widely-adopted tool rather than an unproven newcomer. As with most tools in observability & monitoring, it's worth comparing pricing tiers closely since the free/entry plan often caps out fast for growing teams.
