"The comparison feature is very good."
"It provides a graphical representation and it's clear to see what's happening."
"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
"Grafana is able to connect with multiple data sources, unlike Elasticsearch."
"Compatibility with Prometheus databases and the Spring Boot application make it the first choice when moving toward an SRE model."
"This solution provides valuable insights into the health of our infrastructure in real time."
"Its price and the flexibility to deploy are the most valuable. Flexibility is very important, and you can scale from very basic to more complex. This solution is a part of a complete suite of management tools. So, it can be integrated with other solutions for monitoring networks, which is very important. You can expand it or interconnect it with many other tools, which is a powerful feature. We have a very good and long relationship with ManageEngine support guys. They provide very good support for us."
"We do not have pricing constraints as an organization, because we do have reservations about ManageEngine being functionally scalable."
"The feature that I have found most valuable in ManageEngine Applications Manager is its dashboard."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager maintains the historical data and it's easy for us to analyze the trends and patterns and fix them accordingly."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes."
"It would be helpful if Grafana provided more information and training on how to use Prometheus."
"We need different kinds of applications in our infrastructure to see information in Grafana."
"There is a need for improvement in automating daily monitoring reports, especially when alerts are triggered due to system downtimes or fluctuations."
"Multiple dashboards combined into one dashboard has slowed things down for us."
"Writing queries can be a bit difficult because the syntax must be maintained."
"Lacks in-depth graphs and sufficient AI."
"There are not a lot of plugins for financial market monitoring."
"There is room for improvement when using multiple dashboards because they can become complicated to keep track of and use."
"Lacks an SIEM solution which can be found in other products."
"The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide."
"I would like the solution to improve the ability to track services."
"One area of improvement is the dashboard should be more readable and available."
"They can improve the post-processing of the data. AppDynamics has more powerful tools for post-processing or analytics. It has some limitations in more complex environments, but because we are free to use different solutions, we try to find what is best for the customers or the problem we are trying to solve."
"The agent often crashes when there is too much load on the application side. If a sudden storm of data comes in, the agent crashes down most of the time."
"The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work."
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
