We performed a comparison between AppDynamics 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."The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is its ability to track the transactions between different applications."
"This solution not only provides answers but also provides sensor data. This allows us to quickly resolve issues that developers may take a long time to solve."
"It is easy to gain visibility into complex environments with AppDynamics. It has the ability to combine operation information of the environment and business information with strong business IQ support."
"Autodiscovery of application topology, based on real user traffic."
"That visual representation’s been really good, also the overhead that AppDynamics creates is quite small. We've tried Dynatrace in the past. Some of the applications didn't work as well with Dynatrace."
"The solution helps us provide a better user experience to our customers."
"The monitoring is similar to Dynatrace."
"Provides monitoring more around business processes versus just servers, applications, etc. E.g., with complex systems, where a business process passes across multiple applications, the business needs us to monitor the heath of the process, not just a segment 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 network diagnostics that they are adding will be really useful. They could add more detail into what is going on in the network."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence and machine learning brought in to monitor the statement and payment sum issues we have."
"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."
"The Log Analytics feature is a bit complicated."
"There could be some improvement in the constructions of the diagrams, it is too difficult currently."
"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."
"If AppDynamics could do a one-agent function with their actual monitoring effectiveness, it will be the greatest tool."
"It is stable, but the only downside is the licensing part."
"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."
