"The most valuable features are the low overhead, the ability to monitor production on 24/7 principle, the ability to decrease time to discover the point of failure in the IT infrastructure or the application environment in a short period of time, reporting for analyzing the performance of the application for improving the code optimizing process."
"We make custom dashboards for our development areas so they can understand how busy traffic affects their application with traffic. They can see how traffic directly affects their application in positive or negative ways."
"Attribute decoration is a unique and very powerful feature. We can add meaningful meta information based on our internal demand."
"We are using the on-premise and cloud versions of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management."
"JVM memory monitoring and connection pool monitoring are valuable features."
"If we see something that we need to change or monitor, we can get it scripted pretty quickly."
"It helps us prioritize application performance issues. It has assisted triage where we can drill down and see where exactly the problem lies."
"The product's ability to monitor systems and applications and send alerts and create support tickets are the most valuable features of the product."
"The tool has capabilities other than managing web-based applications, like URL Monitor and EPI Script. It is also easy to use the tool."
"Being able to create your monitors for monitoring your internal URLs and databases and other things like that is valuable."
"Simple deployment: The deployment uses protocols such as NetBios, SSH, WMI, SNMP, which means that any device with any of these protocols will be monitored."
"It's integrated with different monitoring tools, such as AppDynamics."
"The most valuable feature of SiteScope is its infrastructure monitoring."
"It's a very flexible product so you can run a script out of it, even straight out of the box."
"The most valuable feature of OpenText SiteScope is that it is easy to manage and user-friendly."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive and address support tickets more quickly."
"The reason it's not a ten is because they don't focus enough on improving over time like other competitors do who have a more modern and complete tool."
"With respect to SQL monitoring, it would be nice to have a little more information because it doesn't provide the full statement all of the time."
"Improve the targeting interface is to make it more user-friendly and current."
"We need more capabilities to analyze the information that tools collects; for example, using artificial intelligence, or something like that."
"Needs custom dashboards."
"As applications move to the cloud, we need more cloud-based solutions from CA APM. This is currently unavailable."
"There is no auto flow diagram, and the alert mechanism is not as good when compared to other tools."
"Direct integration with an SMS gateway for sending critical alerts to the support SME. This will help customer investing in third party middleware solutions for SMS."
"They have not kept up with browser security requirements or advances in GUIs, they switched to a corruptible database architecture instead of text config files."
"I would be very interested in having transaction traceability included in the product, to give us a better view of what is really going wrong in a particular method and action."
"Micro Focus Voltage SiteScope could improve by adding more features, such as cloud, APM, and DevOps monitoring."
"They need to offer better technical support, which, right now, is not helpful or responsive."
"We'd like a uniform interface for monitoring our system, since that's the purpose of SiteScope."
"Full application functionality available via the API. There are some functions you can perform managing monitors, that are only available through the UI."
"SiteScope isn't productive if you want to monitor RAM or if you want to monitor some URL."
