We performed a comparison between BMC TrueSight Operations Management and Dynatrace based on real PeerSpot user reviews in five categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Dynatrace has a user-friendly interface, easy deployment, good scalability, AI capabilities for incident alert automation, and offers a Kubernetes module for topology visualization. Even though the solution is expensive compared to competitors, it provides good value for its cost and is a great choice for companies seeking a user-friendly and scalable solution.
"Its event management capabilities are very open and flexible. I haven't seen a use case scenario with a customer that we couldn't actually solve the problem for, so it's really good. There are some interesting things that happen in an enterprise network (things that people don't normally expect), and the event management product is very flexible. You can solve problems as far as your imagination can go with it."
"It is breadth. It covers so many different technologies which can roll up into a single console."
"The major advantage of the product is estate management."
"The fact that they have a very integrated relationship with Sentry Software, the Knowledge Module, is valuable... The richest feature for us is the number of Knowledge Modules that we can load into the product to add breadth of service to the customer. It enables us to move up the operational stack from hardware, to operating system, to application, and to cloud... That enables us to provide one pane of glass over all those layers - hardware, OS, app, and cloud."
"We're using native monitoring capabilities for all our server hardware, for visibility for applications, for URLs, for webpage response and accuracy, and for monitoring network throughput in a lot of particular instances. We're using lightweight protocols for pinging, for DNS, for LDAP."
"I believe that the ease of use and UI is great"
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is easily scalable."
"The most valuable features of the solution are alert management, alert generation, and event management."
"UEM helps to identify user experience and detailed steps performed by the user."
"PureStack, I just love it. It can give visibility from the end-user perspective right through to the code level. That's the most valuable feature."
"PurePath view of methods and the call stack are extremely valuable for troubleshooting and performance review."
"Improved visibility on performance and application issues."
"It gives you a great level of detail into whatever the issue is: Using troubleshooting and getting to the root cause."
"We had a very quick turnaround, and it solved our problems. We get more insights into what our code is doing, where the bottlenecks are. The tool helps us to find the root cause much faster than other tools in the market. Our team can then work with the engineering team to fix the problems at a much faster rate."
"By using Dynatrace Managed, we have improved customer satisfaction and have also helped internal teams and subcontractors make the application more stable."
"We spend less time investing in problems. We can spend more time on developing new projects."
"In our company, we faced some issues with the solution’s application endpoint, IP, and the physical location of the transactions."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management could improve the reporting."
"The solution is a little obsolete."
"The dashboards are not good. We have a limited dashboard, and if we want better dashboards, we need to use other solutions like Grafana because the TrueSight dashboards are not good."
"We were somewhat limited in TrueSight due to some of the RBAC controls not quite being what we wanted as far as delegating out administrative privileges for implementation. But because we were able to turn requests around pretty well, that burden wasn't too heavy."
"It would be better if the initial setup and deployment were more straightforward."
"The product must provide application or service monitoring features."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product. We have EUEM, an end-user experience monitoring appliance. This one's quicker than the current one, and reporting side and filtration side are very bad. There are many details we look at and explain what we receive information in the current one, but we cannot have historical data like we do with EUEM. We cannot have a powerful point to look for specific traffic from a specific application and a specific browser. We don't have it in the new one. The current BMC also needs to add the thing that control versions."
"It is always requiring us to update the Dynatrace client."
"For the user, for the customer, they expect a solution to be not so expensive."
"I would like to see income monitoring for the servers and infrastructure monitoring."
"Filters should have a “negative” option."
"What needs improvement in Dynatrace is its dashboard. Creating dashboards in Dynatrace is good, but compared to Grafana, which is integrated with Broadcom DX APM, the resulting dashboard in Dynatrace isn't as clear. The Dynatrace dashboard needs to be more graphic."
"The business use case is that most people want to see how many orders came in. I'd like to be able to get data out of JavaScript tags, and capture more data. I think that would make it much more useful, rather than using Google Analytics. Instead, have one tool to capture all the stack, that would make it easy."
"It would be great to have Synthetic automatically retrieve what the customer sees on his side."
"When it comes to monitoring, we did the integration with VMware vCenter, and we were able to see some good stuff. The VMware vCenter integration was really great, but what we really missed was the integration with the network management stuff such as Cisco ACI. We wanted to see integration in that area, but it was not provided by Dynatrace. So, the main feature for us is integration with things like Cisco ACI. If they can bring that one in, with vCenter in there, it would be a total solution. It would be absolutely incomparable to anything else in the market."
