"We're a large organization, so we appreciate AppDynamics' wide coverage. It may not work in all areas, but it has broad coverage. We can use the same dataset for different use case aspects. That is the beauty of AppDynamics. You can coordinate APM, EUM, and infrastructure through one dataset."
"From the performance management side, I like everything from business transaction work to tracking. On the database side, we can get a lot of insights from the database. On the server monitoring side, it helped us a lot to find out some of the issues on the VM side because VMs were creating a little trouble for us."
"It helped to find quick solutions for specific business transactions."
"Applications: This provides us insight into how our applications are performing within our environments and affords us the ability to identify opportunities and make changes to code / environment to effect positive performance lift."
"We are able to correlate performance between tiers."
"It's good for a larger scale deployment such as what my company is working on."
"In 2014 and 2015, AppDynamics was one of the best products on the market."
"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 initial setup could be easier."
"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 agent deployment could be simplified by, for example, adding a GUI."
"The solution could improve by covering more technologies. For example, it does support .NET Core applications. However, it could be a bit better."
"The QA and test environment need improvement."
"While it is scalable, it could be better."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence and machine learning brought in to monitor the statement and payment sum issues we have."
"Sometimes, it is hard to navigate through and find if something is wrong or figure out where an error stemmed from."
"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."
