I've spent a small amount of time in datadog, lots in grafana, and somewhere in between in honeycomb. Out applications are designed to emit traces, and comparing honeycomb with tracing to a traditional app with metrics and logs, I would choose tracing every time.
It annoys me that logs are overlooked in honeycomb, (and metrics are... fine). But, given the choice between a single pane of glass in grafana or having to do logs (and metrics sometimes) in cloudwatch but spending 95% of my time in honeycomb - I'd pick honeycomb every time
