We performed a comparison between Dynatrace and SolarWinds NPM 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."They have quick answers for scalability."
"We use Dynatrace to help us understand how applications perform in different platforms."
"Having the metrics easily understood and easily articulating the information."
"With PurePath, I am able to find the root cause of the error or bug existing in our system."
"Support was very quick to help us identify a problem and fix it immediately"
"Real user monitoring is one of the best things in solution. The possibility to analyze any particular user session is wonderful."
"I like the PurePaths dashlet the most. This is mostly because as soon I open the PurePaths dashlet and sort by response time, there is the problem. Every time."
"It is nice to be able to deep dive and pull historical data."
"Provides a good level of tools and covers essential components."
"The benefit of this solution is the reporting. We're able to report on and see our network in a graphical form. We are able to detect when a device is added to a network."
"The most important feature is reporting. The reports that are generated are useful and they save a lot of time with respect to monitoring."
"The product is lightweight in terms of memory use, requiring only 10 megabytes or less."
"SolarWinds NPM is a scalable solution since it can handle a huge number of users."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the monitoring capabilities."
"It is scalable."
"A product that is well-tested and trusted in demanding situations."
"Filters should have a “negative” option."
"Bring the interface to the same level as OneAgent."
"Some of the APIs and integrations are a bit tougher than others to integrate."
"Addition of more statistical features, plus different time series modeling techniques, would really help for future versions."
"I would like to see single pane monitoring."
"There were a number of marketing promises that were made, which we do not see it in the tool yet. "
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"I'd like to see the UI a bit more polished. For example, I saw a demo of the dashboards here at the Perform 2018 conference. There was a table of these widgets, but they're not sorted alphabetically and there's, like, 50 of them. So if you want to find your widgets, you're of scrolling up and down. So small features, being able to search for widgets, that things are more categorized; just a bit more focused on the user experience."
"It is not that stable. As a Windows software, I have seen issues with SolarWinds. The performance is slow."
"The SolarWinds notification and alerting configuration could be simplified as it would be easier to find if it was within the NPM web application instead of in a separate client application."
"An area for improvement would be the use of modular licenses, which are not practical for big clients."
"SolarWinds NPM could improve the graphics of the interface and more customized reporting."
"SolarWinds needs to be improved such that it is on par with the leading products in the market."
"We'd like to see a bit more automation in the future."
"SolarWinds NPM can be very slow at times. The database optimization can be done to improve the product performance."
"Time: A worldwide deployment can be confusing for dispersed users with non-local times. Each node should have a local time (with summer offset if appropriate) & each user should view & report in their local time."
