"The CA tools allow to me to get into detailed transactions for custom ranking, and be able to make predictions. It also gathers data. Some other tools may be good at one area, but not good overall, including the mainframe."
"In terms of stability, it has been stable so far."
"We receive good transactions from it with good graphs, as well, documenting the activities of total visitors on the site. We can pull the reports and provide them to the client, as required."
"The most valuable feature of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management is its very light model with monitoring of servers and network items."
"This application pulls data in 15 seconds. You can imagine the enormous amount of data which streams through."
"An application is quite complicated in the environment of a software reliability engineer, because our applications are like a black box. Thanks to CA APM we are able to transform this black box to a gray box by using the transaction trace functionality services. For me it's the most valuable service of the solution."
"Standard available reports provide us with an automatic insight into the top ten situations to watch. It would have been extremely difficult to program such a report ourselves, and to my knowledge no other competitor can match this functionality."
"InfoVista 5View NetFlow allows us to control the application layer and manage API connections, i.e. Facebook logins or whatever other third-party API services we require."
"Very often, we use tools such as Kibana or Jaspersoft for dashboards and reporting on CA APM data because CA APM’s old interfaces do not reflect well in modern displays, compared to those new tools."
"It doesn't have a proper database, and the configuration is very difficult."
"The upgrade was complex. The documentation could have been a little bit better, but other than that, it was okay."
"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."
"Issue resolution needs to be faster, rather than having users wait for the next release for issues to be fixed."
"They can make it easier to configure."
"The area of improvement is related to the areas of application onboarding and instrumentation, where the product has certain shortcomings."
"We enountered stability issues. They were mitigated by performance tuning within infrastructure."
"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."
