Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."That visual representation’s been really good, also the overhead that AppDynamics creates is quite small. We've tried Dynatrace in the past. Some of the applications didn't work as well with Dynatrace."
"The flow map is very valuable to us. Before we installed APM, we had no idea how our application looked."
"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is Proactive Monitoring and Alerting."
"Despite dozens of deployments across hundreds of applications- we have yet to see a case where AD is negatively impacting application execution or functionality."
"The solution helps us save a lot of time on certain tasks."
"From the performance management side, I like everything from business transaction work to tracking. On the database side, we can get a lot of insights from the database. On the server monitoring side, it helped us a lot to find out some of the issues on the VM side because VMs were creating a little trouble for us."
"It's made it easier to collaborate across teams; be able to have the same data immediately in front of you just by sharing a URL."
"The real user monitoring helps us evaluate our customers' real experiences, which is valuable as an eCommerce company."
"With Google Analytics, you choose what performance metrics you want to have reported, but with AppPulse Mobile, you have a global vision of what is really happening inside your app."
"It identifies transactions and flows of the operations that our customers use with our mobile application."
"The thing that I like about AppPulse is that it's easy application to install and an easy application to use to provide information for our customers."
"It provides a lot of customer insight, understanding the customer's needs, understanding the customer's issues, and it gives me a more proactive approach to solving a customer problem before it happens."
"AppPulse Active allows us to very quickly produce synthetic monitoring for our applications."
"Customer are able to develop more quickly versions in which users can see the application to correct and monetize it."
"We can collect data about the user experience and see how the user is behaving with the app, or check the behavior of the app itself."
"The speed that you can get AppPulse out there was the brightest spot of this whole process."
"AppDynamics's agent management could be improved."
"One area for improvement is the MST model. It would be more helpful if it could be offered as a managed service provider model with more multi-tenancy and features."
"The solution's user interface should be improved."
"If AppDynamics could do a one-agent function with their actual monitoring effectiveness, it will be the greatest tool."
"This solution is expensive."
"If it can be able to intelligently provide all the things we need to look at, from a data point of view, that would be very useful."
"We have had downtime, which has been the result of config, application, or cord issues."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"I think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization."
"The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime."
"The regulations should be better customized for the kind of data that we cannot send to the SALs environment."
"Currently, the information for management teams and technical teams are in the same view, but it would be useful if we could separate these views."
"It could be better if you had any of the reports that the customers asked from us, for example, punctually. Unfortunately, the reporter is not that practical."
"It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile."
"I would love if AppPulse delivered more details about my users, for example, age and sex. It could split up the users into categories based on how frequently they use my product."
"The ability to get CI information from AppPulse into OMi."
