"What I found valuable in AppDynamics Database Monitoring is good technical support. I also like that it's scalable and stable."
"The solution is great for database monitoring. You don't have to install an agent on the database. You just install the server to a database agent. It's a good product for some database administration if you don't want to install an agent on the database for security."
"Knowing which tables on the database were working the most was valuable. It helped the client understand where they need to focus. They streamlined a lot of their queries and brought the resource usage down. It helped them to find long-running queries. They rewrote them completely so that they don't take as long and the application performs better."
"In my experience, it's easy to use. There's nothing complex to learn or fear. You can quickly adapt to it without the need for extensive training."
"Data monitoring is the most valuable feature."
"AppDynamics is a good tool that offers excellent out-of-the-box dashboards and application topology."
"AppDynamics is scalable. They can monitor billions of transactions because they're not monitoring all transactions. They're monitoring samples. So, they can offer good monitoring for the huge sites."
"The initial setup was fairly easy."
"It could be more user-friendly for beginners."
"I believe they need to increase their level of visibility in the infrastructure, particularly in the infrastructure monitoring section, which currently lacks visibility."
"The day-to-day activities should be less complicated so that anyone can manage it."
"The networking monitor function could be better, we are not getting many details from it."
"The product requires high maintenance."
"Based on the user experience feedback that we have had, I think that the most important thing to improve is the availability of the SaaS, the cloud environment."
"The product lost its place as an industry leader."
"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."
"There are certain aspects of the configuration that could be simplified a bit."
