"We can make custom alerts in our system for specific issues like high CPU utilization or application downtime."
"The solution saves time and cost."
"Being able to install it on-prem and monitor our on-prem infrastructure is important for us... Most of our infrastructure is on-prem. We have highly scalable systems and AppDynamics will help us monitor our load on-prem. Our systems range from simple to the most complex and it gives us the visibility across transactions, in one dashboard."
"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."
"We're a large organization, so we appreciate AppDynamics' wide coverage. It may not work in all areas, but it has broad coverage. We can use the same dataset for different use case aspects. That is the beauty of AppDynamics. You can coordinate APM, EUM, and infrastructure through one dataset."
"AppDynamics has been stable."
"Autodiscovery of application topology, based on real user traffic."
"Customer are able to develop more quickly versions in which users can see the application to correct and monetize it."
"It provides a lot of customer insight, understanding the customer's needs, understanding the customer's issues, and it gives me a more proactive approach to solving a customer problem before it happens."
"AppPulse Active allows us to very quickly produce synthetic monitoring for our applications."
"It identifies transactions and flows of the operations that our customers use with our mobile application."
"The application is easy to use, as it is friendly and graphic."
"With Google Analytics, you choose what performance metrics you want to have reported, but with AppPulse Mobile, you have a global vision of what is really happening inside your app."
"The speed that you can get AppPulse out there was the brightest spot of this whole process."
"We can collect data about the user experience and see how the user is behaving with the app, or check the behavior of the app itself."
"There could log management features included in the product."
"AppDynamics is dealing with a lot of products and technologies, so we need to have clear documentation."
"Installation and configuration can be very tough. An average user without specialized knowledge can't do this. You need to have DevOps and QA teams handle it. During installation, a lot of customers get stuck trying to track the database or the API part, and they have to contact customer support."
"Their agents sometimes claim to be very lightweight, especially with databases, but they are very heavy. They can take up more compute than the actual work that we need to do."
"I would like them to change their business model for scalability to accommodate growing companies. The business model should be more flexible."
"I would like to be able to monitor both cloud an on-prem infrastructures, displayed in one dashboard."
"The overall performance of this solution could be improved. The hot-hot infrastructure features could also be improved."
"They are using Flash for their website, which is very slow. We had hoped the website would be much faster to use, and that is definitely what we want to see."
"I would love if AppPulse delivered more details about my users, for example, age and sex. It could split up the users into categories based on how frequently they use my product."
"Currently, the information for management teams and technical teams are in the same view, but it would be useful if we could separate these views."
"The ability to get CI information from AppPulse into OMi."
"It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile."
"I think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization."
"The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime."
"The regulations should be better customized for the kind of data that we cannot send to the SALs environment."
"It could be better if you had any of the reports that the customers asked from us, for example, punctually. Unfortunately, the reporter is not that practical."
