"Observability directly improves system stability and availability. The survey revealed that 75% of businesses report a positive return on their observability investments. Nearly one in five (18%) say they are realizing a 3-10x return on investment. For businesses, the top benefits of observability are: Reduced unplanned downtime (55% of leaders) Improved overall operational efficiency (50%) Reduced security risk (46%) Engineering Efficiency Observability also improves engineering productivity and satisfaction by reducing the time engineers spend on reactive tasks."
"Engineers spend 33% of their time on "firefighting" or addressing disruptions. When you add in the 33% spent on maintenance and technical debt, more than two-thirds of an engineer's time is spent on tasks other than developing new features or coding innovations. For practitioners (SREs, IT, DevOps), the top benefits of observability are: Reduced alert fatigue (59%) Faster troubleshooting and root cause analysis (58%) Improved collaboration across teams (52%)"
Observability increases system stability and availability and delivers measurable ROI, with 75% of businesses reporting positive returns and 18% realizing 3–10x ROI. Primary business benefits include reduced unplanned downtime (55%), improved operational efficiency (50%), and reduced security risk (46%). Observability reduces engineering reactive work: engineers spend 33% on firefighting and another 33% on maintenance and technical debt, limiting time for new feature development. Practitioners report reduced alert fatigue (59%), faster troubleshooting and root-cause analysis (58%), and improved cross-team collaboration (52%). Many organizations lack full-stack visibility across infrastructure, applications, security monitoring, digital experience, and logs.
