"The solution helps us save a lot of time on certain tasks."
"The most valuable feature is the detailed statistics, like the consumer count, for the ActiveMQ server."
"We have been able to monitor our applications more accurately."
"I like that AppDynamics allows every organization to have what they want to see, like for my organization, we're able to customize the dashboard to show us details of what we want to see in our transactions."
"The monitoring is similar to Dynatrace."
"The best features of AppDynamics would be the code application monitoring capabilities."
"The best feature of AppDynamics is the analytics, which gives us the business insights of the application."
"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 worst part is that the AppDynamics SaaS Environment has a lot of downtimes, and AppDynamics, despite our efforts, does not give us any feedback on these downtimes/incidents."
"I would like them to change their business model for scalability to accommodate growing companies. The business model should be more flexible."
"AppDynamics scaled well up to around 3,000 agents. The performance deteriorated after that, while Dynatrace could support more than 10,000 agents. We were surprised that AppDynamics' scalability is not so good."
"AppDynamics is new to the cloud and could improve its cloud services, they are following a monolithic monitoring approach."
"The Log Analytics feature is a bit complicated."
"Needs more integration with applications suites, like Oracle Enterprise Server or BMC Remedy."
"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 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."
