"AppDynamics scaled well up to around 3,000 agents. The performance deteriorated after that, while Dynatrace could support more than 10,000 agents. We were surprised that AppDynamics' scalability is not so good."
"We would love to see support for more types of agents in the mainframe world."
"The integration ability of AppDynamics with other performance testing tools is an area with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The AppDynamics installation process needs to be more straightforward. Deploying the product is also tricky."

"I would like to see more of a unified platform. They're very, very new on the server side, machine agents. I want them to be more mature in this area."
"There are many KPIs that are not available in AppDynamics."
"I think I would like to see a better way to deploy and upgrade the machine agents that we use. Currently, we have to use SCCM, and that might just be our environment with the customer."
"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."
