Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."To be honest, it's a fantastic product."
"The ability to identify the top running queries has been extremely valuable for us."
"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."
"Data monitoring is the most valuable feature."
"The product is stable and the technical support is good."
"AppDynamics is a good tool that offers excellent out-of-the-box dashboards and application topology."
"The features related to the application performance in AppDynamics Database Monitoring are the most valuable."
"What I found valuable in AppDynamics Database Monitoring is good technical support. I also like that it's scalable and stable."
"The product’s auto-remediation feature helps with automation."
"It works better than other products I’ve used – namely SolarWinds, which is cumbersome and error prone for web app monitoring. SCOM is not."
"The monitoring features are the most valuable. We have seen a major benefit from that so far."
"It can send messages to our ticketing system."
"The stability has been great."
"SCOM's most valuable features are the network path feature, reporting, and integration with business intelligence."
"It takes a lot of the headache out of managing your data centers and software in other places."
"The solution is scalable. If you want to monitor more you have to buy more licenses, but you can add on. We don't plan to increase usage."
"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 solution must improve security and setup."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring would be improved with more support for microservices architecture."
"The networking monitor function could be better, we are not getting many details from it."
"This product has an issue with initial lag upon opening that we would like to see improved."
"I believe they need to increase their level of visibility in the infrastructure, particularly in the infrastructure monitoring section, which currently lacks visibility."
"They could align the product strategy to evolve as a complete solution."
"I would like the solution to be more customizable to meet our client's requirements."
"There could be more integration of SIM in the solution."
"It could use some system enhancements, such as better dashboards."
"The interface is a little bit cumbersome and certain actions could be simplified."
"All of the areas of reporting are very bad and need to be improved."
"Direct integration with third-party tools, like ticketing systems, is lacking but would be beneficial."
"The solution should be more user-friendly and offer a better user interface."
"The configurations could be better. There are multiple tests where you can do something, but they can be a trigger as well. The overriding methodologies are not that easy. The configurations are difficult. The configuration and thorough day-to-day operations to get them to the level you want takes some time. It's very difficult."
"On-prem network monitoring is something that could be improved drastically."
