"The solution could improve by covering more technologies. For example, it does support .NET Core applications. However, it could be a bit better."
"Sometimes, it is hard to navigate through and find if something is wrong or figure out where an error stemmed from."
"The GUI can be overwhelming at first to a novice Dev or Ops support person, and the possible root causes of an issue do not bubble up to the first screen you see."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence and machine learning brought in to monitor the statement and payment sum issues we have."
"A little bit better documentation on the details is needed because this subject is not easy sometimes to understand, which limits the capability of the software."
