The solution's initial deployment takes about three to four months. However, it's a work in progress because new applications are added every time.

CD
Software Engineer at Apmosys Technology Pvt. Ltd.

For deployment, we need to focus on event configuration, which involves learning about network events and configuration. Once we understand this, we can proceed with the deployment setup. There is no frequent deployment. In case the deployment is not satisfactory, we may need to learn about Linux and Windows concepts.

Initially, we had a consultant for the installation. Now, we do all of the upgrades by ourselves. We manage it with a team of four people.

The people who work on it are from my team, as well as from production and from pre-sales.

Well, if it is a simple application, go with your in-house team for implementation. On the other hand, if there is a complex e-commerce app and you want to exploit every functionality of AppDynamics and integrate all of the interfaces, then go for external consultant implementation.

UA
Head Of Information Technology at a mining and metals company with 11-50 employees

The initial setup was done by our application service provider, an ERP application service provider. They configured it, and therefore we never ran into any kind of setup issues in that respect. 

They were fine. We had a good experience with them overall.

We handled the implementation in-house. The installation is not really an issue. You can install AppDynamics in an hour, but the configuration takes a long time before you have everything configured.

AppDynamics helped with the initial implementation. That was very focused with the support teams of the applications. I would absolutely recommend getting your development teams involved ASAP, so they begin to use the tool and see its immediate value to them.

MM
Senior Performance Engineer at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees

We deployed it ourselves, although we had a consultant available online who was available for assistance. We didn't face any issues, other than deploying all of them at one time.

One technical person who has the details and information on the ports should be present. They need to know all of the commands that are used to deploy the agents.

Production Operations Systems Admininistrator III at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees

We chose to deploy in-house and that turned out to be the correct decision for us, as it allowed us to become more familiar with the behind-the-scenes workings of the software. As far as advice, while auto-discovery is nice, we’ve found that prior planning in regards to configuration of applications, tiers and nodes pays off by ensuring the returned data is in a format that is most digestible to your organization.

Technical Architect-Product Development with 5,001-10,000 employees

Implementation was done in house. The tool is configuration intensive. A good development and operations team need to know the application dynamics to configure this application.

Since it’s high on budget, it’s recommended to buy a developer license and play around with this tool in a dev environment and then procure for production.

I don't think premium vendor support is required for setup and configuration.

I have implemented it through a vendor team.

It takes far less time to implement than any other APM tools. The ease of using the tool further reduces the overall implementation time.
