We performed a comparison between Broadcom DX Application Performance Management and Oracle Enterprise Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The most valuable features are the low overhead, the ability to monitor production on 24/7 principle, the ability to decrease time to discover the point of failure in the IT infrastructure or the application environment in a short period of time, reporting for analyzing the performance of the application for improving the code optimizing process."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"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."
"The deep-process instrumentation gave us an opportunity to understand application process performance in detail."
"We understand for APM, it has the ability to drill down and do the end-to-end monitoring that we are looking for."
"For me, the most valuable feature is being able to check memory patterns. We check them when we do load testing or soak testing to see if there are any memory leaks."
"It has a random transaction trace which gives our customers the ability to look at how their transaction performs."
"Some of its valuable features include transaction traces, dashboards, and metric grouping to see combined data."
"The best part is the efficient database performance monitoring and the ability to take actions directly from there."
"Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product."
"We use it extensively for performance tuning testing, monitoring, and configuration."
"SQL Tuning Advisor, ADDM, Top Activity, ASM Space Manager, Incident Notifications"
"It's user friendly."
"I mostly use the top events, and look at how the execution is happening on the database; and monitoring the cluster level rates. I even look at the execution plan."
"There are a number of different user interfaces you can choose from."
"The solution is easy to use and has good performance."
"You can sell licenses and install the full tool on service, you can show customers how to install, but how to use it and solve issues cannot be done without the experience."
"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 interface is getting a little old."
"I would like them provide more guidance on specific tuning of monitoring options to avoid unacceptable overhead."
"The initial setup is complex."
"It doesn't have a proper database, and the configuration is very difficult."
"A CA APM agent takes a lot of memory. That is one disadvantage. If you configure CA APM correctly it will still consume around 15 to 20 percent of memory."
"RMAN tools need improvement."
"The solution has a very large resource system. It's too big. There are too many items."
"It is complicated to run it on Google Chrome."
"The solution's agents work with Java, and the Java code sometimes consumes a lot of memory on the CPU."
"I would like to see better pricing."
"The fact that Oracle Enterprise Manager is an expensive solution is a matter of concern and needs to be considered for improvement."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
