We performed a comparison between Dynatrace and SolarWinds NPM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."A monitoring system that can show us code level details."
"This is a stable solution."
"The Dashboard is very useful, as you can monitor different parameters on the same screen."
"The deployment configuration and everything is simple. It is not that complicated."
"We use it to monitor over a 1000 servers in AWS."
"Dynatrace shows the customer path, common errors on desktop and mobile, and allows us to achieve faster page loads."
"Integration with other tools in company using SNMP traps."
"For me, the most valuable feature of this solution is that deep dive that we get out of the AppMon product with the PurePath technology, and the way that the PurePath stack works."
"The nice thing about SolarWinds is that it's kind of all-in-one. I can manage the status of my networking devices, whether they are up or down, I can see how much traffic is going across an interface, and I can run a report that tells me exactly what that traffic is."
"It gives us a map of the network setup and one console to see the entire network."
"SolarWinds dashboard is very fast. Also, their interface is very good, it looks very user-friendly. The product allows me to see a summary of the network being monitored at a glance."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"You can monitor performance counters effortlessly."
"Monitoring capabilities are at a high level and it is easy to see utilization, access ports, and CPU memory in real time or through a lens for long-term visualization."
"The alerting and usage tracking notifications on disk space capacity, network and processor utilization."
"The people in technical support are very good."
"Add support for Ruby."
"I would love to see Dynatrace get more involved in the security realm. I get badgered by so many endpoint protection companies. It seems like a natural fit to me, that Dynatrace should be playing in that space."
"Network monitoring is lacking and could be improved."
"It would be nice to get the AI piece into AppMon."
"DevOps plugin monitoring tools need improvement."
"We're not quite there yet, but the thing I would like to see is to really have that view of how issues relate to the business. Often enough, the tools that IT have for IT stop at the IT level. They cannot go into the business level part. They can't understand, because they don't have the information that the business needs to provide them with - for example how much an hour of downtime costs the business. For us, in IT, it's an hour of downtime, but it equates to money and equates to hours lost and equates to a lot of things, and often enough we don't have that information. This is where I would like to see us going."
"I would like to see Dynatrace be more user-friendly. Sometimes there are too many options to use from, which is good, but it can become confusing on how to proceed."
"A role-based view and a Python monitoring tool would make a simple user interface more usable."
"The improvement would be that SolarWinds NPM thoroughly checks its patches before releasing them to the market. Better testing, alpha testing, and then releasing it to the market."
"There needs to be more integration of widgets, especially for reporting purposes."
"The evaluation time for the product is too short especially for large corporations."
"We'd like to see a bit more automation in the future."
"The solution is not always good with new features, so it's take a long time."
"The integration needs to be improved."
"Application Performance Monitoring should be included in this solution."
"I would like to have a Syslog server module for this product. That would make the solution better."
