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."Quick availability of multiple aspects of performance from infrastructure to application layers."
"Finds issues that previously occupied people for months."
"Improved visibility on performance and application issues."
"We have substantially lowered incidents in our organization."
"Easy to install and start using it."
"It is a 100 percent stable solution...Dynatrace is a highly scalable product since it is a SaaS-based application."
"Gives systems back-end visibility, allows for proactive monitoring, and improves the user's experience."
"We use Dynatrace to help us understand how applications perform in different platforms."
"The diagnostics and configuration are the solution's most valuable aspects."
"For banking and telecom solutions, it's been quite useful."
"The most valuable feature of Micro Focus Diagnostics is the information reported from an application that has timed out. For example, when you're Googling, or you're booking a ticket for Burj Khalifa here, the longest tower in the world, there are situations where the system can time out. There are times when you might not receive a response on the payment gateway or you are not able to find the reservation. The customer only receives the information that the session has timed out."
"We would like to see an AI tool that detects issues with our site in real time."
"The integration of the tools is getting there. It is still not there yet, because we still have to get a lot of tools to put together."
"The customer support is not quick and helpful at this stage. We are deploying Dynatrace into our network. I've raised a couple of technical questions with the support team but the response was not fast and didn't cover all my questions at all."
"Our main problems have been that it has a high learning curve to it. I've used it for about three years now and I'm still learning it. There are some videos and there is some documentation out there, but it still requires you to delve into the tool to learn it. A little bit more comprehensive self-paced training would help."
"We have had problems with our middle layer application implementation."
"We are still struggling a bit with finding an answer quickly."
"On the side of the end user experience, I would suggest adding a new service for analyzing the backtrace of users."
"They need a capability similar to Tealeaf where you can actually view what the consumer is doing and record the sessions. That is the biggest missing element."
"The interface could be more user friendly."
"The GUI and metrics of Micro Focus Diagnostics can be improved. The metrics the solution gathers can be limited and could be enhanced by giving more details."
"The interface is very old, and not very user-friendly. Most of our clients don't like the UI."
