Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."We set up alerts recently so we can fix any issues more quickly in production."
"It gives me the ability to trace logs between transactions, for example, a DB transaction or JVM transaction from one hub to the other. I can easily find out where the problem is or where the bottleneck of the issues lies."
"Provides monitoring more around business processes versus just servers, applications, etc. E.g., with complex systems, where a business process passes across multiple applications, the business needs us to monitor the heath of the process, not just a segment of the application."
"The most valuable feature is having our services being available and healthy."
"I find troubleshooting is quicker because we can drill down into the end points and see which endpoints are getting critical. Visibility-wise, the micro details are easy to find."
"Being able to install it on-prem and monitor our on-prem infrastructure is important for us... Most of our infrastructure is on-prem. We have highly scalable systems and AppDynamics will help us monitor our load on-prem. Our systems range from simple to the most complex and it gives us the visibility across transactions, in one dashboard."
"The most valuable features of AppDynamics is the scalability and monitoring."
"We previously had an operations team continuously monitoring applications. Now, they just have set things up and our developers can monitor, view, and act on them, accordingly."
"The most valuable feature for us was the ability to monitor sites and get a nice overview of all the data in a single view."
"Sometimes, it is hard to navigate through and find if something is wrong or figure out where an error stemmed from."
"Rolling out version upgrades is a difficult job at times."
"We would love to see support for more types of agents in the mainframe world."
"There could be some improvement in the constructions of the diagrams, it is too difficult currently."
"As per my experience, the drill-down feature can be improved at the class level."
"The UI could use a little help."
"It would help to maybe have a more graphical interface and more user-friendly graphics."
"The documentation and training material have room for improvement."
"One area that could be improved is the reporting features. In the version transformation from ten to eleven, the platform changed from a Windows-based platform to a Linux-based platform. As a result, the previous reporting feature using Crystal Reports was no longer available. Instead, we had to generate PDF dashboard reports, which were not as flexible."
