We performed a comparison between AppDynamics and Avantra based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 of AppDynamics is its ability to track the transactions between different applications."
"It's made it easier to collaborate across teams; be able to have the same data immediately in front of you just by sharing a URL."
"We can make custom alerts in our system for specific issues like high CPU utilization or application downtime."
"The features that I like best are the dashboard and Business Journey."
"AppDynamics is easy to implement if you follow the documentation, and the documentation that they provide is good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the fact that it is very easy to use, making it easy to implement...It is a very stable solution."
"It allows us to configure health rules so that we can, based on our own experience, determine when an application is behaving incorrectly."
"The ability to check parameters for microservice applications is most valuable. It is important for me. I can manually create new business transactions for applications and individually monitor business transactions. I can also use a lot of extensions. It has a lot of extensions to monitor other third-party applications, such as NoSQL applications, memory cache applications, Kafka applications, and Couchbase applications. It is very useful. We are also using the end-user monitoring site to follow all end-user activities. It is important for us to check the errors on the customer site."
"You can customize alerts based on need."
"It's very easy to manage and use."
"The most valuable feature of Avantra is automation. The reduction of manual work and having them automated is one of the top reasons why I would use it."
"I would like to see something that lets me set real dollar figures, not just to outages, but to the solutions as well... when I'm looking at problems and have found a problem that I know I need to address. I could flag it off and have AppDynamics estimate how long a person would have taken to find that without it. That would give me a lot of leverage for justifying the existence of APM, which I really need."
"Rolling out version upgrades is a difficult job at times."
"Needs more integration with applications suites, like Oracle Enterprise Server or BMC Remedy."
"There are too many installers available for this solution."
"The resolution time takes longer than expected."
"As per my experience, the drill-down feature can be improved at the class level."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"There could be some improvement in the constructions of the diagrams, it is too difficult currently."
"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."
