"It helps to show where the problem is and isolates the issue."
"We have used PurePath data (response times) to improve and tune application performance."
"It gives us all the data on all the calls, which is something that is very different from any other APM solution that I have seen or used in the past."
"I think one of the most valuable features is the Dynatrace API, for both metrics and configuration."
"The ability to scale presents a challenge as the cost of handling vast amounts of data in the cloud must be taken into account."
"DX SaaS is a latecomer to the APM market. Some things that are straightforward in Dynatrace are complicated in DX. For example, upgrading the agents is a seamless process in Dynatrace, but it's a pain in DX SaaS. You should be able to upgrade in the Application Command Center. However, it is not working correctly."

"For an easy view of global and entity-specific configurations, a separate tile or pane aggregating these configurations should be implemented."
"The new Managed Edition is too complex. I feel like a fish out of water."
"Alert triggers could be easier to setup and more granular."
