Find out what your peers are saying about Dynatrace, AppDynamics, Elastic and others in Container Monitoring."I can review behaviors, trending issues, and resolve issues before they impact our clients."
"Dynatrace gives excellent insight into the performance of our applications."
"We have identified and solved "mystery" issues that we have experienced for a long time, including sporadic latency issues on storage volumes and SQL databases not scaling properly when under certain loads."
"I'm also involved on the practical side, putting in all the automation, that automation platform. To have a tool like Dynatrace, where I don't have to work out for hours how to configure and set up alerts and monitoring - especially in a solution that is not completed yet - it's not only a major time-saver, but I know going forward that it will be able to learn how the system operates. Day one, we're getting all of that stuff for free, out-of-the-box."
"The most valuable features for me are the dashboard panels because they enable you to monitor multiple applications in one single site."
"Having OneAgent is the most valuable feature of Dyantrace, as well as the monitoring."
"Triggering gives us warning that system is getting slow and we need to nail down the issue soon, so it does not impact our business."
"Quick root cause analysis"
"Docker containers are completely supported, kind of like "first class citizens"."
"The ability to stop/pause and capture logs when something happens is the most valuable feature."
"Dynatrace SaaS still lacks configuration API or command line which would allow moving configuration from one tenant to the other."
"There is a limitation on timeframe. Now, if you look at the dashboard, it will state five minutes, then 15 minutes, then one hour, then six hours, and finally 24 hours. I would like them to provide a set of options defining the business hour."
"Some technical architectures are based on an event mechanism operating via a publish/subscribe system. APM technology sometimes reaches its limits to go upstream."
"The initial setup was challenging for us. However, it was complex until you grasped the nuances of the product and the building blocks."
"We are waiting on the new features to see how they perform."
"The UX/UI needs improvement. It is not easy to learn."
"Nginx monitoring service did not work out-of-the-box, so we had to tinker with it for quite some time."
"I would like to have the ability to share live data with selected third parties so that they can see how their product is performing for our company."
"It is needs to automate the actions to take when an alert is triggered."
""Events" reporting (errors, crashes, etc.) is not clear at all in a Mesos environment (i.e., it's not clear what specific container is the one that went down). In a Docker Compose environment, it may be way better."
