Case Study: Redzone by QAD achieves a 500% increase in releases and 90% fewer SEV1 incidents with Datadog Synthetic Monitoring

QAD Redzone simplifies and automates proactive testing with Datadog Synthetic Monitoring

QAD Redzone, a provider of cloud-based manufacturing and supply chain solutions used by thousands of plants worldwide, faced slow, fragile manual testing that created bottlenecks in its development pipeline, generated false positives, and allowed critical defects to reach customers—preventing the company from achieving continuous delivery at scale.

By adopting Datadog Synthetic Monitoring’s no-code end-to-end mobile tests, QAD Redzone automated proactive testing, freed engineers to focus on product work, and gained scalable visibility into key workflows. The change accelerated releases from roughly 3 per year to 2–4 per month (a reported 500% increase), cut SEV1 incidents by 90%, reduced defect costs, and improved overall product reliability.
