We performed a comparison between Dynatrace 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."Dynatrace AppMon has allowed a deep dive review of performance problems in near real-time for our primary external website and related web apps and web services."
"In the AppMon, offering, currently, the most valuable feature is the PurePath analysis, being able to deep-dive into call chains."
"It is very stable and reliable."
"It simplifies a lot of the processes of performance tuning client systems before they go live."
"The dashboard customization based on the performance metric requirement is one of the most exciting features."
"If you look in the APM sector, it is a very nice package to install."
"Reduced MTTR, thanks to smart problem detection and automated root cause analysis."
"For cloud, AI has been pretty useful so far when it comes to IT's ability to scale."
"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."
"Dynatrace could be improved by having a fully functional applications and infrastructure monitoring feature. Their existing stack, which is SNMP-based, does not have full infrastructure monitoring, whereas if we compare it with other solutions like New Relic or Datadog, they have moved into infrastructure monitoring. The second improvement I would suggest is in regards to the cost. So far, Dynatrace is the most expensive APM that we sell, even compared to New Relic. I think they can improve a little bit in terms of the license pricing."
"They could also, develop an observability platform where you could have the ability to inject events, locks, and traces."
"Under heavyweight, Dynatrace becomes slower when listing PurePaths."
"The other feature that Dynatrace should have is - from what I see in Dynatrace in our PoC - when you auto-upgrade the agents, the JVM or the application has to be restarted. But if you have something like an "auto-attach" feature, to attach the agent for the running process, it would not require a JVM restart. That would be nicer. That is a killer point."
"Adding people to alerts has not been very intuitive. That's really my only negative feedback."
"The web interface, in some cases, is a little ambiguous to use."
"We have had to resolve a lot of things and had a lot of issues with the tool."
"Some technical architectures are based on an event mechanism operating via a publish/subscribe system. APM technology sometimes reaches its limits to go upstream."
"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."
Dynatrace is ranked 2nd in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability with 340 reviews while TruView is ranked 54th in Network Monitoring Software with 16 reviews. Dynatrace is rated 8.8, while TruView is rated 9.6. The top reviewer of Dynatrace writes "AI identifies all the components of a response-time issue or failure, hugely benefiting our triage efforts". On the other hand, the top reviewer of TruView writes "We lacked visibility into network and app performance, so we chose Visual TruView to proactively manage our network". Dynatrace is most compared with Datadog, New Relic, AppDynamics, Splunk Enterprise Security and Azure Monitor, whereas TruView is most compared with NETSCOUT nGeniusONE and Softinventive Lab Total Network Monitor.
