We performed a comparison between AppDynamics and TruView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."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."
"It's good for a larger scale deployment such as what my company is working on."
"The monitoring is similar to Dynatrace."
"In 2014 and 2015, AppDynamics was one of the best products on the market."
"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is its ability to track the transactions between different applications."
"We set up alerts recently so we can fix any issues more quickly in production."
"After we implemented this solution, we can easily determine the root cause of issues."
"It allows us to configure health rules so that we can, based on our own experience, determine when an application is behaving incorrectly."
"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 price of the solution could improve."
"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."
"AppDynamics is agent-based, so some customers are reluctant to install the agents in all their production environments. It would be helpful if they had an agentless version. It covers applications on the server, but the solution is weak on the network side. The agent is not deployed on the network components, so it cannot provide complete information about issues on the network layer."
"Additional support for NextGen mobile platforms also needs to be high in the roadmap prioritizations"
"AppDynamics is new to the cloud and could improve its cloud services, they are following a monolithic monitoring approach."
"The AppDynamics installation process needs to be more straightforward. Deploying the product is also tricky."
"AppDynamics should improve its ability to track all the transactions."
"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."
