"AppDynamics is a good tool that offers excellent out-of-the-box dashboards and application topology."

"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is that we can see all query times. If a particular query is taking too much time, we can alert it."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring's dashboarding is its best feature."
"I have found some of the valuable features of AppDynamics Database Monitoring to be once the installation is complete, you are able to quickly start receiving metrics, which is great. The user interface is also very user-friendly."
"The dashboards are very well-defined."
"What I found valuable in AppDynamics Database Monitoring is good technical support. I also like that it's scalable and stable."
"It has helped us maintain a much higher uptime than we had previously."
"The most important thing is that it tells us where the latency in throughput and response time are."
"The integration and configuration of New Relic is straightforward and easy."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to receive in-depth information about applications. It can detect a lot of important information."
"The alert mechanism is quite accurate when something goes wrong in your system. For example, if you have hundreds of APIs on your server, and any of the APIs is not performing well, you get an alert. When there is a drop or change in the threshold value, the beauty of New Relic is that within a fraction of seconds, all the stakeholders who are configured in the New Relic system will get an alert. That's one good thing."
"New features are added often."
"The solution is quite stable."
"We have done the New Relic integration with Serverless AWS, which has helped us with monitoring, and keeping our monitoring from our on-premise part with the cloud part."
"The product lost its place as an industry leader."
"The networking monitor function could be better, we are not getting many details from it."
"Stability-wise, we experienced some performance issues when upgrading from 4.4 to 4.5."
"The product requires high maintenance."
"The day-to-day activities should be less complicated so that anyone can manage it."
"The major concern lies with reports, specifically their configurability. It's like, if I want to combine multiple reports and generate them all at once, that's not possible. Even though there's a setup for generating 25 reports, I wanted to group them all and generate them in one go, which isn't currently feasible. I have to manually run each report and set the time for it."
"I would like the solution to be more customizable to meet our client's requirements."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring could improve the price of the solution, it is costly."
"The price could improve."
"It is very difficult to award the service level cycles at an endpoint level."
"Compared to their competitors, they are missing some features at the moment."
"Data Dog captures the entire session and then provides it as a video player path, which gives more insight into what the user was doing. It's pretty impressive. New Relic does that, yet it only captures using a couple of screenshots, which is not very detailed since you are unable to see the entire user flow."
"Some of our customers see New Relic as a promising product to have, and we would like to deliver it to them. The only way we would be able to do that would be if we had server appliance for clients that we could install in their data centres."
"It would help customers if there were an on-premises version available."
"There were some settings we had issues with."
"It is a serious tool and requires a lot of time invested in order to understand how it works."
