"Service maturity when you can retrieve the normal metrics for every major aspect of each module and delivering this info to the correct eyes."
"CA APM is very scalable and used in a clustered environment because it supports more than its technical capacity."
"This application pulls data in 15 seconds. You can imagine the enormous amount of data which streams through."
"Deep Dive and Transaction Analysis Triage capability."
"The deep-process instrumentation gave us an opportunity to understand application process performance in detail."
"I like that it gives you a wide range of data where you can see the application outage response from concurrent locations and the number of stalled jobs."
"We did the setup for a new datacenter, and that was pretty straightforward."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."
"This solution is more applications reference architecture focused. Its benefit is that it specializes in that space."
"The most valuable features are security detections, perimeter detection, dashboards, and alerts."
"Wire data analytics."
"The most valuable feature is the way it handles data, from Layer 2 up to Layer 7. We can see everything that happens in the network."
"The interface is getting a little old."
"The product displays some graphics and sometimes we want to have some different metrics in the same graphic but it doesn't display in the same scale, so it's quite complicated to see the metrics. If the product would be able to manage a double scale, it would be perfect."
"User Experience is a BIG one. Integration of all of APM components into one swift deployment."
"One of the challenges is agent releases. So as we employ agents, they are done relatively manually. A little bit of automating of agent release would be helpful."
"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."
"The upgrade was complex. The documentation could have been a little bit better, but other than that, it was okay."
"Documentation needs to be centralized."
"System incident analysis and performance monitoring need improvement."
"We'd like to see a local presence within the region in order to have seamless service whether it's the support, the implementation, or professional services."
"This solution would be improved if it had the ability to retain data longer."
"Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"They either have to go broad or decide what their bread and butter is and get really good at that."
