Manish A. Parikh
ESM Engineer at a tech company with 10,001+ employees
Has helped us in being proactive with in-depth analysis of app perf from an ESM perspective
What is our primary use case?
A new concept (APM) to be introduced in our workplace which was never there before. Never had visibility into application (layer) performance. Prior to this our main focus was on server and network hardware monitoring. Having visibility into app performance and backend layer has been quite an eye opener in putting together the entire picture for management. We've put together a complete portrait from an ESM (Enterprise Systems Management) perspective with Broadcom/CA Tools.Pros and Cons
- "Deep Dive and Transaction Analysis Triage capability."
- "User Experience is a BIG one. Integration of all of APM components into one swift deployment."
What other advice do I have?
It’s a great product and provides a lot of in-depth data. Focus and leverage this product as a deep dive one and have another layer above it (another high-level view product etc..)

CEO at Pio Pet d.o.o.
Monitors 24/7 Mmission critical apps with low overhead, quick and helpful reporting
What is our primary use case?
My users are satisfied with this solution, most are financial institutions such as banks. The primary use case is for the monitoring of business applications in production. Banks use it for monitoring Internet banking solutions, internal back-office applications that have high number of users distributed on many locations, monitoring back-office applications for card transaction processing, and also for front office applications monitoring. DX APM is also used in a test phase of apps life cycle especially during a performance testing.Pros and Cons
- "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."
- "You can sell licenses and install the full tool on service, you can show customers how to install, but how to use it and solve issues cannot be done without the experience."
What other advice do I have?
One of our customers has been using this solution for the last ten years since it was called Wily Introscope. They are really satisfied and they are buying more licenses, using the solution for the whole infrastructure. All of my clients are using on-premises installation licenses. Most of our clients are at the enterprise level and they are some of the largest banks in the region. Broadcom DX APM is not only a tool, it's a solution. We have experts who are there to offer assistance in exploring the solution to give the customers the maximum value. In my opinion, it's the best product on the…

Kelechi Njokuoma
Techincal Support at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Stable, straightforward to set up and use, and it has good network monitoring features
What is our primary use case?
We are a service and solution provider, and this is one of the monitoring products that we implement for our customers. The primary use case is network monitoring.Pros and Cons
- "The features that I find most valuable are related to network monitoring."
- "Technical support needs to be more responsive and address support tickets more quickly."
What other advice do I have?
This is a product that I continue to recommend to my customers. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.reviewer1290405
Systems Consultant at a insurance company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Good memory and connection pool monitoring features, but better visibility into specified parameters would be helpful
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use this product for monitoring our IBM WebSphere environment. It more generally monitors all of our JVMs for our web environments, used for all of our websites.Pros and Cons
- "JVM memory monitoring and connection pool monitoring are valuable features."
- "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."
What other advice do I have?
We did not implement the latest release because they made some big changes to the framework. They probably have some of the stuff in their newest release that we would like. However, we didn't do that because they went to Kubernetes and some other technology that we weren't ready to adopt because it isn't in our environment yet. Since Broadcom bought it, I would no longer recommend this product to other users. I think that they increased the price and the support isn't very good anymore. I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.
Alexandre JorgeFrança Gonçalves
IT Service Specialist at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
Enables us to track track performance on the production and QA environment
What is our primary use case?
I use it to track performance on the production environment and QA environment.Pros and Cons
- "The time it takes to track problems in applications is the most valuable return that we have from this solution."
- "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."
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 don't need to put in other agents. Today you have to use another host to bring up your vision. If they would have a single agent with all this information, it would be perfect.reviewer1415085
Monitoring Tools Teamlead at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
It comes with a good user interface but lacks ease of configuration
Pros and Cons
- "The feature that I have found the most valuable is its user interface."
- "They can make it easier to configure."
What other advice do I have?
You should look at the Broadcom DX version 11, which will be available from early 2021. It is a lot better than version 10.7. There are a lot of big upgrades in version 11. There are not a lot of differences between AppDynamics and Broadcom DX Application Performance Management version 11. The user interface of AppDynamics is better, and the configuration for AppDynamics is a little bit more straightforward. Broadcom offers a wider range and a bigger suite of applications. The APM module is just a part of it, whereas AppDynamics is a specialist at APM. AppDynamics is a better solution at the…
Ravi Suvvari
Performance and Fault-tolerance Architect with 1,001-5,000 employees
CA APM is a great transaction monitoring tool
What other advice do I have?
Definitely a good product, worth going for. Since I first reviewed the product here, about two years ago, I would currently not change my rating of eight out of ten. CA APM hasn't changed much in that time.Popular Comparisons
