We performed a comparison between AppNeta by Broadcom and AppPulse Suite [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Broadcom and others in DX NetOps."We get complete, hop-by-hop visibility into the internet and we can know how much latency is taking place from one hop to another. That way, we know whether a particular hop belongs to the ISP, or that it is something owned by our own client's office, or is something to do with the SaaS network."
"A lot of times one of the AppNeta transactions showed that there is an issue, whereas everything seemed to be working properly. Once we dug into it, we realized that it really was highlighting a problem that otherwise we would not have seen."
"The product helps us understand networks and user experience. It helps us to understand the issues."
"The main feature that we use is what they call Delivery, which is the testing of network paths end-to-end."
"The solution's technical support is very good."
"Delivery and experience are valuable. The usage in terms of the traffic application captures and other similar things is also valuable."
"This solution helps prove that, if we move to cloud, we'll still be as effective as we are on-premises."
"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."
"Customer are able to develop more quickly versions in which users can see the application to correct and monetize it."
"The application is easy to use, as it is friendly and graphic."
"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."
"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 speed that you can get AppPulse out there was the brightest spot of this whole process."
"They should try and make diagnostics run a bit quicker. When the problem occurs on a network, AppNeta runs automatic diagnostics on the end-to-end path. The path it was testing only to the destination, it now runs the same test to all of the devices and all the intermediate devices. Depending on the number of intermediate devices, it can take several minutes to run. If we're trying to find or diagnose a problem that only lasts two or three minutes, it may be that the diagnostics is still running by the time the problem is cleared. The only thing, which I have also mentioned to AppNeta in the past, is that there should be much faster and much more lightweight diagnostics, which can be completed within 30 seconds or one minute, rather than in 5 to 10 minutes."
"Having to deal with configuring the end devices using a USB stick is a bit cumbersome. It would be nice if there was a better way of handling that."
"AppNeta by Broadcom needs to add more features to its dashboards. It also needs to work on providing out-of-the-box reports."
"I would like to see some advanced dashboard features. It could also be integrated with third-party tools. For example, an integration with a reporting solution would be helpful. Out-of-the-box, there are few dashboards or reports. What it does have is useful, but there should be additional dashboards."
"Cloud monitoring could be better. That's one of the biggest pain points for me. I have shared this feedback with them multiple times, but they're limited to some extent. That's one area where I've seen a problem."
"I think some of the product's documentation has shortcomings and needs improvement."
"Instead of integrating with other people, they should expand their interior capabilities."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile."
"The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime."
"I think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization."
