No issues encountered.

In the beginning, there were issues operationalizing CA APM to work with our company. I wasn't involved at the time, though.

We ran into all kinds of problems and most of it was because of just the onboarding as our new-product education was a huge issue.

We can't implement the TIM in our environment because we have issues with a virtualized environment. VMware and TIM was not thought of in a way that could receive the data in a cloud environment.

In earlier versions like 8.5 and 12 we ran into many incompatibility problems while a lot of other problems existed with JBOSS and assigned certificates.

There have been no issues with the deployment.

We've had no issues with deployment. It's the upgrades that are the issue.

Yes, as any implementation of this level we found issues, but nothing worth it and the support has been as expected.

We've had no issues with deployment.

It takes a long time to get it set up and configured in your applications and running. And out of the box, what I have found is that when you take the system, if you just drop it on your application, the overhead of the agents and the monitoring and the collection of all the data is out-of-the-box, and it's too much and will impact your application. So, what we have done, in the most recent deployment, is gone to a very scaled-back version of the application and sort of added in until we were satisfied that we were collecting the data that we needed, and balancing that with not impacting the application to the customers.

No

No, however I have many years in this space. I do however know of other implementations that were not as smooth.

Excessive errors in the application being monitored caused us to back off the level of monitoring due to the amount of traces being gathered.

We've had no issues with deployment.

Once we moved past the basic setup and customized it for our needs, there have been no issues with deployment.

It is a long process. Use-case monitoring - you have to know the application in and out to make it work. Other tools allow you to create the profile and configure it later. With APM, we don’t have anything like that. Configuring the use-cases monitoring is a long, time-consuming activity, and not a user-friendly one. It requires expertise and knowledge of the applications, and CA APM.

We did, although minor. We ran into issue with some of the rights with some of the back-end files used by the enterprise manager, although newer versions seem to have less issues.

We have no issues deploying it.

We've had no issues with deployment.

No issues.

Yes. Our first project was to get more visibility of our ‘Intranet solution’ based on WebSphere Portal. We tried to use CA APM CEM to get an understanding of the application performance around the globe. We needed extra code enrichments as CEM was not able to cope with dynamic URL’s.

I haven't had issues with deployment.

I have not encountered any deployment issues.

I wasn't involved with deployment.

Deployment of CA APM infrastructure and agents is quite easy and pain free. Issues do start to arise when you have a large enterprise environment comprising of multiple Pre-production environments and Production. The administration and configuration tasks involved to changing the configuration on agents and uplifting versions can be a long process without the use of a centralized management console for agent configuration purposes.

The issue we faced was on sizing and implementing the APM architecture as it involves multiple components in a distributed environment.

No issues. Easy deployments.

I had and issues but it was resolved through CA support or CA Community.

No issues encountered.

There have been no issues with our deployments.

Overall, we've had no issues with deployment.

There were no issues and deployment was very smooth.

Agents with certain customized applications can increase overhead. This then requires careful analysis and tuning. The probability for this case, though, is 1 in 100.

No issues with deployment so far.

We had no issues with the deployment.

The issues during deployment were with the documentation. Documentation needs to be improved.

Had some performance problems with a few applications and had to disable some probes.

Deployment for large scale systems is an issue with lot of add-ons/additional products required. For example add-ons for Oracle / Siebel / Peoplesoft, etc.

We haven't experienced any issues in these areas.

We've had no issues with deployment.

No, the deployment of CA APM is quite easy.

We sometimes have issues with deployment.

None. Very simple deployment.
