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."The most valuable feature is the solutions overall performance. It is very efficient and accurate for our usage."
"Enables dynamic injections from within the product which is great."
"Data exporting is easy, and this tool works seamlessly with other solutions. It's a stable and low-priced solution."
"We like this searchability and availability of the data."
"The solution very easily integrates with Azure services and in one click you can monitor your resource."
"Azure Monitor is a very easy-to-use product in the cloud environment."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the alert system, which can be set according to our metrics. The integration is smooth."
"It is a robust, stable product."
"Technical support is good and helpful...The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable features of Azure Monitor are the login analytics workspace and we can write any kind of custom queries in order to receive the data that is inserted into the login analytics workspace, diagnostic settings, et cetera."
"In the next release, I would like to see the possibility of sharing the metric from this solution with other solutions."
"The end-to-end distributor tracing connectivity isn't there."
"When something goes down, we want the option to have automation in place to get it back up again as quickly as possible."
"There are a lot of things that take more time to do, such as charting, alerting, and correlation of data, and things like that. Azure Monitor doesn't tell you why something happened. It just tells you that it happened. It should also have some type of AI. Environments and applications are becoming more and more complex every day with hundreds or thousands of microservices. Therefore, having to do a lot of the stuff manually takes a lot of time, and on top of that, troubleshooting issues takes a lot of time. The traditional method of troubleshooting doesn't really work for or apply to this environment we're in. So, having an AI-based system and the ability to automate deployments of your monitoring and configurations makes it much easier."
"The monitoring of Kubernetes clusters needs improvement to be on par with competitors."
"have used multiple products like Webex and PRTG. Some features could be added. Azure Monitor should add SMS and APIs. We have very limited access to Azure Monitor. I usually get alerts on my phone when they are integrated with Slack. I am not always available, but my team is. Sometimes, I am traveling and don't have access to my email, but I have Slack and other third-party projects that send me instant messages if a sensor goes down."
"The solution's monitoring feature has limitations for analyzing multiple metrics."
"They should include advanced logging on the database level in the Azure pool."
"In my opinion, they should improve the overall user experience, especially when it comes to indexing and searching collective logs."
"The solution should have cross-connection or cross-communication between tech partners."
