We performed a comparison between AppDynamics Database Monitoring and Azure Monitor based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We were able to correct problems, which led to an increase in availability, time savings, and performance for our solutions."
"In my experience, it's easy to use. There's nothing complex to learn or fear. You can quickly adapt to it without the need for extensive training."
"The most valuable features of AppDynamics Database Monitoring are you can configure the performance and see in real-time what is exactly happening with the applications. Additionally, the dashboards are good."
"I have found some of the valuable features of AppDynamics Database Monitoring to be once the installation is complete, you are able to quickly start receiving metrics, which is great. The user interface is also very user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature in this solution, for our business, is the clear way of projecting the connections between the database and the traffic inflow. This is very helpful when troubleshooting issues."
"The dashboards are very well-defined."
"The product is stable and the technical support is good."
"The solution is very, very stable. We haven't faced any bugs or glitches on the system."
"Azure Monitor is a very easy-to-use product in the cloud environment."
"Azure Monitor is very stable."
"The solution has tons of valuable features."
"The dashboard allows us to easily track various metrics and quickly understand the overall health of our system."
"I am impressed by the reporting on the average eight ports that we get from this solution."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The upside to the solution is if you are working in a Microsoft or Azure environment, it makes things easier."
"I am monitoring all of my Azure Monitor and getting good reports. I can customize the reports to get the information I need. I am also getting emails about which AAS instances are down and everything in the system related to my services. It is easy to use, scalable, and user-friendly. Microsoft has Many guides and videos to help you understand how to create and use Azure Monitor."
"The solution must improve security and setup."
"I believe they need to increase their level of visibility in the infrastructure, particularly in the infrastructure monitoring section, which currently lacks visibility."
"The scalability could be improved."
"I have found it sometimes a bit difficult to trace the transaction all the way through to the application. I'm not sure if that problem is on the database side or on the application side, but that would be something that I would like to be improved. The traceability from the application to the database, sometimes, is a bit of a challenge. If you're using AppDynamics, with the Java agent, for instance, you need to be able to trace it through."
"This product has an issue with initial lag upon opening that we would like to see improved."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring would be improved with more support for microservices architecture."
"An improvement could be if the monitoring was able to be summarized into something more clear and simple for people who don't have the technical skills on the database side."
"The solution should add some monitoring similar to Oracle monitoring tools for databases. It has a lot of features to monitor SQL queries, and make some recommendation to resolve it. AppDynamics is just monitoring for delays and doesn't provide any recommendations for that. It's a deficiency."
"If it is configured incorrectly, you can end up with a huge bill."
"The solution should have cross-connection or cross-communication between tech partners."
"They can simplify the overall complexity since you have multiple data sources in the cloud for monitoring. It's quite simple, but there are so many portals. It takes time to work with it. If they could simplify the user configuration, that would be good."
"In my opinion, they should improve the overall user experience, especially when it comes to indexing and searching collective logs."
"Although it's not always the case, the price can sometimes get expensive. This depends on a number of factors, such as how many services you are trying to integrate with Azure Monitor and how much storage they're consuming each month (for example, how large are the log files?)."
"Azure Monitor could improve the visualization aspect and integrate better with other third-party services."
"This solution could be improved with more out-of-the-box functionalities and artificial intelligence to complete event correlation."
"Enhancing and reaching a level of detail that facilitates pinpointing and addressing issues at such a refined level within the application and database components would be helpful."
