"It's good for a larger scale deployment such as what my company is working on."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to take a report, and in particular, a visual, and link it to actual application performance and then the consequences. This means you can show how an incident or action has an effect on the business."
"We are able to correlate performance between tiers."
"It's made it easier to collaborate across teams; be able to have the same data immediately in front of you just by sharing a URL."
"Once you get past installation, AppDynamics is highly stable and we get good results."
"The most valuable feature is the detailed statistics, like the consumer count, for the ActiveMQ server."
"Despite dozens of deployments across hundreds of applications- we have yet to see a case where AD is negatively impacting application execution or functionality."
"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."
"There are too many installers available for this solution."
"Regarding Search Guard functionality, there is room for improvement."
"The network diagnostics that they are adding will be really useful. They could add more detail into what is going on in the network."
"It needs strengthening in the database tiers."
"I would like to be able to monitor both cloud an on-prem infrastructures, displayed in one dashboard."
"The QA and test environment need improvement."
"Rolling out version upgrades is a difficult job at times."
"In the current version of AppDynamics, there is a correlated section, where we can see all servers’ performance along with application performance, but network performance is missing."
"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."
