What is most valuable?
For me, the most valuable feature is being able to check memory patterns. We check them when we do load testing or soak testing to see if there are any memory leaks.How has it helped my organization?
In a production environment we check all the parameters. We can detect any leakage, any problems, whether RAM is sufficient, and whether CPU is crossing a threshold. We can determine if we need to add new servers or RAM or adjust the heap… more»What needs improvement?
A CA APM agent takes a lot of memory. That is one disadvantage. If you configure CA APM correctly it will still consume around 15 to 20 percent of memory.What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Dynatrace is the most expensive of these tools followed by AppDynamics which is "medium-expensive." Both CA APM vs Dynatrace and CA APM vs AppDynamics are a bit lower in price. Because of this, our clients insist on using CA APM. In my… more»Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I use many tools, such as LoadRunner, Silk Performer, and IBM. I also use AppDynamics and Dynatrace. The last two are actually the best for me at the moment because they support even the database level. CA APM does not support that much. It… more»Consultant

* Root Cause Analysis. For example, I have an application in my environment and it suddenly it goes down. I then need to find out which team to consult and whose fault it is: coding, database, network, or something else. No one is ready to… more»How has it helped my organization?
It reduces the downtime of applications, and has, in fact, minimized it to approximately 5 percent, and possibly even less than that.What needs improvement?
Automatic report generation needs work.Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I used logs to study applications' behaviour, but that requires a separate team to properly handle it. There was dependency on their workflow. Now, we don't require a separate team. Additionally, the CIO can see the reports on his mobile.What other advice do I have?
You should only use a preferred partner of CA. Over the couple of years, since I first reviewed the product here, my rating of it hasn't changed. I still rate it at eight out of ten. I rated it eight because it is a good CEM experience but… more»Junaid Wahab

We can find out the bottlenecks before the customer encounters them. That's the major benefit. It helps prioritize application performance issues because we can prioritize them in a test phase, or the development phase. We can find out that which queries are slow, what is the behavior of our… more»What needs improvement?
It could be faster. For example, when we are upgrading the product, it takes a lot of time and there are a lot of things we have to do manually. If it is automated it would be really helpfull.What other advice do I have?
The important things for us when selecting a vendor are * how good is their product and * the reviews of that product. I would say try CA APM and tune it the way it is recommended by CA Admins and from configuration guide. You'll find a lot of people complain about it because they do not tune the… more»

CEM needs to be simplified, because it causes too many interruptions in our daily work.What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Setup costs are quite competitive relative to other solutions, and simpler.Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have used AppDynamics in the past, and its customization is not as simple as that of CA APM.What other advice do I have?

The transactions rate feature is the most valuable feature. It shows the deep histories of everything that's running on an even transaction. That's why it is so useful.How has it helped my organization?
The time it takes to track problems in applications is the most valuable return that we have from this solution.What needs improvement?
I would like for them to develop a feature that controls .net agents remotely. It would be very useful and we don't have this feature now. They need to improve the crossing over of data from large files and they should use LUNIX heavily… more»What other advice do I have?
I would rate it an eight out of ten. 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. They should develop the user experience so that you… more»Which other solutions did I evaluate?

What do you think of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management ?
What is our primary use case?
We are using CA APM for Layer 7 applications, like SQL, as well as application debugging.What needs improvement?
Compared to other tools, it's not good. First, there is no auto flow diagram. Second, the alert mechanism is not as good when compared to other tools. Third, there are many different folders, such as front end, back end, and BB queries, but it's very critical to centralize all the business connections. Fourth, there is an issue relative to the build all view.For how long have I used the solution?
Three to five years.What do I think about the stability of the solution?
