Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Command center is a new feature that provides agent maintenance and support without involving the application team. It saves lots of time for APM team.""The time it takes to track problems in applications is the most valuable return that we have from this solution.""We use it to create dashboards and executive view dashboards, so our higher up managers can take a look and see where our application status stands.""We did the setup for a new datacenter, and that was pretty straightforward.""It covers from mainframe, all the way to dotcom, for example. CA currently covers Amazon, Microsoft Azure, Office 365 monitoring.""Scalable, stable, and easy to deploy APM tool which effectively monitors code-level visibility.""In terms of stability, it has been stable so far.""For the most part, we run constantly without any issue at this point because of APM.​"

More Broadcom DX Application Performance Management Pros →

"It is very stable. The improvements that they keep making just make the tool more useful.​""UEM can be used for user impact analysis and troubleshooting.""The product installs quickly and immediately. It begins to learn the architecture of the systems which need to be monitored. It then learns what “normal” looks like, so there really is no need for manual configuration.""We have improved performance by 50% and determined conflicts in the application to eliminate errors.""We are able to fix issues rather quickly, by identifying then fixing them. Therefore, the efficiency of the organization has improved. We are spending less time fixing issues.""Great for monitoring critical internal and public-facing applications.""We used to rely on multiple operations tools to monitor and obtain bits and pieces. Now, we have it all in a single pane of glass.""The triaging is amazing. And at the same time, it provides depth, all the way to what kind of a method, what variables are inside those methods. Without getting too into the technical, the depth it gets to, pinpointing the problematic area - where exactly the problem is happening - is amazing."

More Dynatrace Pros →

Cons
"Stability could actually be helped because it is a wrapper or an agent on our system. If we are having a bad day in production or if other resources are being utilized, then we will get get gaps in our monitoring system.""System incident analysis and performance monitoring need improvement.""The following need improvement: 1) Integration of third-party content into app maps (e.g. data coming from beats/elastic platform). 2) Support of new application server technologies, time to adopt new versions of them. 3) Dashboarding capabilities (as with all other vendors). 4) Application architecture of the central Enterprise Manager should be developed into a cloud native architecture. 5) Mitigation of SPOF – PostgreSQL database, behind Team Center.""In order for the tool to be successful, at least in our organization, it will need to have more self-serve features for implementation, instrumentation, and then modification of metric data from the APM.""Needs custom dashboards.""What comes to mind when you speak of a room for improvement in Broadcom DX Application Performance Management is the infrastructure agent, but my company doesn't use it, so I can't say if it's really a problem or not, but it could be the container support or cloud support that could be improved in the solution. An additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management is for it to have one agent for cloud and one agent for legacy, with all features included.""We enountered stability issues. They were mitigated by performance tuning within infrastructure.""The reason it's not a ten is because they don't focus enough on improving over time like other competitors do who have a more modern and complete tool."

More Broadcom DX Application Performance Management Cons →

"​We do not have any web monitoring with Dynatrace.""There are a lot of features that could be added that would make this a very useful solution, but it is getting there.​""The pricing of the product could be improved.""I haven't had a chance to go through all of it, but I would like to see the ability, from an administrative standpoint, for it to collect statistics. I want to be able to see the servers that the agents are installed on. I want it to be able to start doing collections for me by platform: How many Linux servers do I have? How many Windows servers do I have? Statistically give me the information of how things are performing, but I want that in a dashboard, where I can look at a dashboard and I can look at a section. So the ability for me to drill down will make it easier for me.""If we can gain more insight into older applications, using not-so-recent technologies, then it would be a plus.""The thread traceability is something that needs improvement.""The next release I would like to see is especially with external API monitoring. Right now, everything goes into one bucket, but if it were split into which API is failing, that way we wouldn't have to drill down to find out where the failures are.""Possibly include some network monitoring capabilities."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Depends on the size of the product you need."
  • "Althougth it is a bit expensive, it is really worth it"
  • "There is some research needed to determine licensing costs, based on the number of DataPower instances for the Nastel agent, for example."
  • "Negotiate a lot, but do not forget to buy the product because it is worth it."
  • "Pricing and licensing are not issues."
  • "On pricing, CA is very competitive. I think that's going to help in the long run."
  • "Setup costs are quite competitive relative to other solutions, and simpler."
  • "Dynatrace is the most expensive of these tools followed by AppDynamics which is "medium-expensive." CA APM is a bit lower in price than either Dynatrace or AppDynanics... In my opinion, if you can afford it, go for AppDynamics instead of CA APM."
  • More Broadcom DX Application Performance Management Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing is based on the number of servers monitored, so for big applications, it is a bit expensive."
  • "Licensing is a bit complicated for Dynatrace, and pricing is dependent on how much your organization invests."
  • "We found an issue within the first week of ownership that has been costing us more than the entire license cost."
  • "Product pricing can seem a little over complex, however this is minor and does not detract from the benefits of the solution."
  • "Getting the first agents installed, getting information, and coverage in a initial set of systems can be done in hours and with a low cost entry point."
  • "Price (of the product) is a major concern for all the clients I work with."
  • "The licensing model is confusing in solutioning clients for the number of hosts needed to deploy."
  • "The product is superior to others, but it comes with a price tag that is often difficult to position back to clients."
