We’re NoBS
For a Reason

Radical Best Intent

At NoBS, we practice something we like to call “Radical Best Intent.” In a nutshell this means that we don’t pull any punches and that we address the problems we find without tiptoeing around them. In some cases this can come off as harsh or critical - this is not our intention. Our intention is honesty, transparency, and helping our customers solve their problems. If we don’t address our findings head on, resolving these issues is much more difficult. We named our company NoBS, and we intend to stand by that name.

Why Us?

With 10+ years of Datadog experience, we know what works. We’ve been on both sides of the consultant/customer relationship and we’re here to do things differently.

Green hexagon labeled "Observability Focused" next to supporting text about prioritizing observability from day one to identify and resolve customer-impacting issues

Observability isn’t an afterthought for us—it’s usually our only thought. You need to know when something goes wrong and affects your customers, and that should be considered from day one. No worries if it wasn’t - we’ll get you to where you need to be.

Purple background with white text describing experience across both small and large scale environments, paired with a green hexagon labeled "Proven Experience at Every Scale

We’ve worked in large and small scale environments, and understand the specific challenges of both. Our hands-on experience has shown us what it’s like to go through rapid growth and wind up in a stable state at a massive scale, allowing us to help you avoid the pitfalls along the way.

Green hexagon labeled "One Tech Lead Model" next to text explaining the importance of having the same person scope and lead a project for continuity and success.

We’ve found it crucial to have the person who scoped the work be the lead in delivery. Having built the customer relationship and gained deep understanding of the desired outcomes, they are the best person to own the project’s success.

Green hexagon labeled "Your Needs, Your Solution" beside text emphasizing tailored, custom-fit solutions based on the client's unique requirements.

Your organization is unique and has its own needs. Every solution we provide is bespoke—no one-size-fits-all solutions here. You get what’s best for your situation, not just what’s convenient for us to deliver.

Green hexagon labeled "Holistic Approach" next to supporting text describing how the team solves complex problems by integrating people, practices, and technology—not just tools alone.

Complex problems require thoughtful solutions. We go beyond just tech to consider people and practices as part of our solutions. Technology can solve a lot of problems, but our brains will solve the rest.

Green hexagon labeled "Flexible, Adaptive, and Creative" next to descriptive text explaining the team's ability to adjust to changing project scopes, unexpected hurdles, and evolving needs while delivering successful outcomes.

Projects can be a moving target and change as they go, with unexpected hurdles or unforeseen needs. Our output is a successful project, regardless of what the paperwork says. Things can change rapidly; so can we.

The only consulting services firm in the world 100% focused on Datadog.
