Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"The feature that is most valuable to us is the snapshot feature. It allows us to get a snapshot of different SQL scripts that are being executed simultaneously and we can identify everything we need on them.""The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ability to discover and track transactions.""Database scaling or migration projects play a supportive role throughout the development, monitoring, and troubleshooting phases.""AppDynamics is a good tool that offers excellent out-of-the-box dashboards and application topology.""Visibility to the end-users is a valuable feature.""The most valuable features of AppDynamics Database Monitoring are you can configure the performance and see in real-time what is exactly happening with the applications. Additionally, the dashboards are good.""The product is easy to install, it took about half an hour. The use and the configurations are simple as well.""The ability to identify the top running queries has been extremely valuable for us."

"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.""It identifies transactions and flows of the operations that our customers use with our mobile application.""AppPulse Active allows us to very quickly produce synthetic monitoring for our applications.""The application is easy to use, as it is friendly and graphic.""The speed that you can get AppPulse out there was the brightest spot of this whole process.""Customer are able to develop more quickly versions in which users can see the application to correct and monetize it.""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.""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."

Cons
"The synthetic scripting for end-user monitoring could be a little bit broader. Instead of using just Python, they can include a few other languages so that not everyone has to jump on the bandwagon for Python and do Selenium scripting. They can open up that a bit to make it simpler for people to do the scripting.""The networking monitor function could be better, we are not getting many details from it.""Stability-wise, we experienced some performance issues when upgrading from 4.4 to 4.5.""This product has an issue with initial lag upon opening that we would like to see improved.""The solution should add some monitoring similar to Oracle monitoring tools for databases. It has a lot of features to monitor SQL queries, and make some recommendation to resolve it. AppDynamics is just monitoring for delays and doesn't provide any recommendations for that. It's a deficiency.""The solution must improve security and setup.""The day-to-day activities should be less complicated so that anyone can manage it.""The application end of AppDynamics Database Monitoring needs to improve by checking which applications consume licenses."

More AppDynamics Database Monitoring Cons →

"It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile.""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.""The ability to get CI information from AppPulse into OMi.""The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime.""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.""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.""The regulations should be better customized for the kind of data that we cannot send to the SALs environment.""I think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "In terms of pricing, I feel that when you compare the benefits that we get to the price that we paid, it is reasonable."
  • "Pricing is based on the size of the deployment."
  • "There is an annual cost for the use of this solution."
  • "It could be a bit lower, but looking at the scalability, functionality, and other things, you can understand why AppDynamics is so expensive as compared to some of the cheaper products that don't have that full single pane of glass they've got. Dynatrace has got three different elements that you need to log into just to get a full view, which is not so good, and because of that, it is a bit cheaper."
  • "The licensing scheme is very complex. They need to make it easier."
  • "We have purchased a few licenses for AppDynamics Database Monitoring and the price is high."
  • "The license for AppDynamics is procured by our customers."
  • "We have a license-based solution. That means you need a license for each server you monitor."

  • "It was a no-brainer from a cost perspective compared to the other tools that we buy as an IT organization."
