Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The real user monitoring helps us evaluate our customers' real experiences, which is valuable as an eCommerce company."
"Once you get past installation, AppDynamics is highly stable and we get good results."
"We set up alerts recently so we can fix any issues more quickly in production."
"The initial setup is simple."
"After we implemented this solution, we can easily determine the root cause of issues."
"The most valuable feature is the live reporting on the current health\performance of our application"
"What I like best about AppDynamics is that it's functional, particularly in APM in Java and .NET."
"I like how the AppDynamics dashboard portrays the information flows. When a task is executed, various flows between different applications and databases happen in the background. The dashboard is intuitive and helps visualize the connections, the directions of the flow, and the information related to these specific sessions."
"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."
"The GUI can be overwhelming at first to a novice Dev or Ops support person, and the possible root causes of an issue do not bubble up to the first screen you see."
"The dashboard can be better. Also, the automated reports could be improved."
"Rolling out version upgrades is a difficult job at times."
"Sometimes, it is hard to navigate through and find if something is wrong or figure out where an error stemmed from."
"The network diagnostics that they are adding will be really useful. They could add more detail into what is going on in the network."
"The training on the dashboards that is provided could be a little bit better, as could the use cases. They should have some good examples out there. As it is right now, I had to scour YouTube to find some stuff."
"The solution could be more user-friendly for diagnostic purposes. Anyone who is using the solution should be able to infer what that error is about, they should be able to troubleshoot it better."
"It could do with more than one data centre/multiple AWS accounts in a pane of glass. Also, improved scalability to large environments would be helpful."
"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."
