Comparison Results: Azure Monitor is the preferred choice over Alluvio Aternity as it has robust monitoring abilities for cloud resources across multiple subscriptions, customizable and out-of-the-box functionalities, low cost, and integration with other Microsoft technologies. Alluvio Aternity provides valuable data on machine health and performance but could benefit from more customizable reporting options and detailed performance counters.
"The most valuable feature is the alerting. As soon as we click on an incident, it takes us directly to the problematic PC. It's a direct solution. We click on an alert and it takes us to the incident details. The details show in different colors, in a graphical representation, and I like that the most."
"The dashboard is very effective."
"The ability to monitor crash and health event issues at a user level"
"The detailed level of information you are able to get on the complete environment all of the way down to a specific machine."
"The dashboards of this platform are the most valuable, especially the Desktop Health dashboard."
"DEM-Q (Digital Experience Management Quadrant) is very useful. This is where they stand out with their dashboard, because it gives us a picture of how our company is doing compared to the other businesses out there."
"The ability to quickly utilize the dashboard to gather information is valuable from a DXI perspective."
"The infrastructure data, especially the CPU and memory data, is per second, which makes it outstanding as compared to other solutions. Its licensing cost is very low for us."
"I am monitoring all of my Azure Monitor and getting good reports. I can customize the reports to get the information I need. I am also getting emails about which AAS instances are down and everything in the system related to my services. It is easy to use, scalable, and user-friendly. Microsoft has Many guides and videos to help you understand how to create and use Azure Monitor."
"Data exporting is easy, and this tool works seamlessly with other solutions. It's a stable and low-priced solution."
"Azure Monitor is really just a source for Dynatrace. It's just collecting data and monitoring the environment and the infrastructure. It is fairly good at that."
"The solution's most valuable features are its ability to focus on delivery and maximizing the performance of applications and services."
"A product that is well-integrated for monitoring Microsoft Azure."
"Among the valuable features of this solution, Application Insights stands out as one of the most significant. It provides insights into application performance and helps identify issues and bottlenecks."
"The solution integrates well with the Microsoft platform."
"The most valuable features of Azure Monitor are the login analytics workspace and we can write any kind of custom queries in order to receive the data that is inserted into the login analytics workspace, diagnostic settings, et cetera."
"I would say the reporting capabilities of this product could use room for improvement."
"Its user interface and features should be improved. They don't support new versions of certain Linux editions. That is one of the reasons why we have to move to another solution."
"The licensing model doesn't suit the market we are in and has room for improvement."
"Right now, the user information being displayed by Aternity is received from AD. Ideally, we would like to see integration with other sources for user information, like other databases, so we are not limited to AD."
"It all comes in pretty nice looking charts and things, but we have a hard time pulling out hard data, which is usually what you'll need if you're trying to be actionable."
"I would like to get more granular detail. In regards to defining the applications and activities upfront, that can be challenging. Simplifying that would be a big win. One of the things that I know they are already working on is a verbose mode."
"I would improve the dashboard, the presentation player."
"When they moved from Version 8 to Version 9, the customers lost so much control of what they could do with the product."
"The default interface should be improved."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"The solution should have cross-connection or cross-communication between tech partners."
"The price could be lower but it is not a must."
"The solution's monitoring feature has limitations for analyzing multiple metrics."
"The solution needs better monitoring. It requires better log controls."
"Setting up this solution is complex. It's also missing the functionality of assigning alerts."
"In my opinion, they should improve the overall user experience, especially when it comes to indexing and searching collective logs."
