"The most valuable features of BigPanda are the API integration was good. It enables us to do faster onboarding."
"BigPanda integrates well with other solutions, such as WatchGuard,"
"The event correlation is really good and it is able to reduce the noise. It is a good tool for anomaly detection."
"The most useful feature has been the AI/ML. The way BigPanda uses the AI/ML is good compared to other SRE tools."
"The program is very stable."
"The solution is user-friendly and has good performance and certification."
"The main thing that we like about BigPanda is the user interface."
"The most valuable feature is dashboard creation."
"It is a good tool. It allows you to set alerts for application and infrastructure monitoring, and it allows you to create dashboards."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"I like the fact that Splunk APM makes it easy to connect to the application database and run queries against the data."
"The most valuable features are troubleshooting and optimizing application performance."
"The features are pretty much ready out of the box."
"The solution's service map feature allows us to have a holistic overview and to see quickly where the issues are."
"This solution is very quick to deploy as it is a SaaS solution and integrates with tools like ServiceNow."
"Lacks sufficient dashboard features."
"The solution could improve by having better integration."
"BigPanda could improve by syncing its threshold settings with Dynatrace to align with users' familiarity."
"The observability can be enriched with regards to infrastructure and the application-integrated environment. The dashboard and reports could be improved."
"BigPanda can improve the correlations. We didn't see any big value. It is still good at the same event deduplication, event processing, and ticket creation, but I was more looking at event analysis and event correlation. In that area, it is still no big difference between the other solutions on the market. All of them, are in the same immature stage."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"BigPanda attempts a little of everything and fails at most."
"Our infrastructure is quite large - tens of thousands of servers, often with 30-plus checks running on each host with one minute intervals. This generates a lot of data often in bursts (when we have a large scale failure). This has caused some delay in the ingestion pipeline."
"Splunk's functionality could be improved by adding database connectors for other platforms like AWS and Azure."
"The monitoring of workloads when using SignalFx could be improved."
"Splunk APM's performance could be improved - at the moment, it's very slow and takes forever to give me what I want."
"It is essential for the monitoring tool to deliver quick response times when generating analytical reports, instead of prolonged delays."
"They can improve the flow system and the keyword language. It has predefined keywords, but they can be improved."
"The cardinality is pretty low."
"The UI enhancements could be a way to improve the solution in the future."
"Splunk APM should include a better correlation between resources and infrastructure monitoring."
