Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."This is a stable product and we definitely plan to continue using it in the future."
"We can make custom alerts in our system for specific issues like high CPU utilization or application downtime."
"It provides everything into one view, so we can track information from one place to another."
"The best features of AppDynamics would be the code application monitoring capabilities."
"AppDynamics is scalable."
"It has improved our organization with its ability to catch issues quickly and fix them."
"The monitoring is similar to Dynatrace."
"AppDynamics makes it much easier for us to detect problems or issues before they become problems. We have alerting on all of our business transactions."
"It is the best database management system."
"We can manage everything in our environment."
"It is the best monitoring tool for Oracle databases."
"It is a scalable solution. So far, my company has not faced any issues with the scalability part of the solution."
"I like that it's stable."
"The single-pane and single interface in the centralized system is the most valuable feature."
"It is a good tool for monitoring databases."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring because it's very useful for checking and troubleshooting compared with other products, like Nagios for example, that have some interaction with Oracle."
"AppDynamics is new to the cloud and could improve its cloud services, they are following a monolithic monitoring approach."
"The dashboard can be better. Also, the automated reports could be improved."
"More native support for other hardware is needed because having to install various extensions and perform extra setup for different devices is really challenging, and not as easy or straightforward as it is in other products."
"The network diagnostics that they are adding will be really useful. They could add more detail into what is going on in the network."
"I would like to see more of a unified platform. They're very, very new on the server side, machine agents. I want them to be more mature in this area."
"The end-user experience is not really good because we can't catch all of the transactions. We only can catch the full stack of flow transactions, but I think that this is caused by the technology they use. If they will catch every transaction, it will cause a very big load on the performance of applications. The monitoring of all transactions needs improvement."
"We have had downtime, which has been the result of config, application, or cord issues."
"It could do with more than one data centre/multiple AWS accounts in a pane of glass. Also, improved scalability to large environments would be helpful."
"There are limited numbers of other OEM devices that can be integrated into enterprise management that can be scaled by Oracle by adding other OEM devices to enterprise management."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
"I feel more dashboards can be added, especially those useful to higher levels of IT management."
"It needs to support the Database versions lower than 10.2."
"They should improve the hover text context. This would provide assistance whenever a task is attempted by a DBA."
"The solution has a very large resource system. It's too big. There are too many items."
"The deployment is not straightforward."
"The solution is not as simple as people say it is."
