Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."Finally, we have 100% visibility on website performance, including third-party sources."
"Improved visibility on performance and application issues."
"We have drastically reduced the delay taken by the diagnostic phase. As we identify the root cause very rapidly, we can now focus on the solution and communication."
"It is cleaner and more compact with good UX/UI."
"The vendor team who did the setup was very good. They sent a very skillful resource for the setup."
"We're able to tell them which calls, which methods, which interface were the problem."
"The deployment configuration and everything is simple. It is not that complicated."
"The server monitoring is very accurate in this tool. We are able to prevent many critical Incidents."
"The solution's initial setup process was straightforward since we were getting enough support from Honeycomb.io's team."
"The documentation of Dynatrace needs to be improved. There needs to be a more detailed description and additional examples for background understanding for beginners trying to use it."
"This solution could be improved with better compatibility with legacy applications."
"One thing that would help it tighter integration with DCRUM. It's somewhat difficult to drill down and see everything, but I think that's in the future versions. We just haven't seen that yet."
"The new Managed Edition is too complex. I feel like a fish out of water."
"I would like to have the ability to share live data with selected third parties so that they can see how their product is performing for our company."
"There is another challenge, which is in case of the Managed solution. In our old solution we could simply export the data as session data, and that would be imported and seen. Now, if we are using the Managed solution, then giving someone access to that solution is a challenge. We can handle it, but it's different than taking screenshots and saving that information the way we used to. The copy/paste features that were there in old application - because it was a fat app - were nice, compared to browser-based app, because you cannot really use those features anymore."
"The one thing I do not like about Dynatrace is that their web dashboards are very very slow. They seriously have to improve their web dashboard configuration and SSL timeouts."
"When compared with other tools, the experience needs improvement. I would like them to build out the interactions and make them friendlier."
"The process of log scraping gets delayed on Honeycomb.io. At times, it gives false alerts to the application team."
