We performed a comparison between eG Enterprise and Instana Dynamic APM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"User session details"
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"The overall capabilities are the most valuable."
"Instana is very fast to implement and deploy because the dashboards are automated and don't need configuration."
"Its GUI is really good and it easy to understand for non-technical users."
"The platform’s most valuable feature is the ability to monitor the performance of containers for request and response analysis."
"The primary selling point of this product is its unparalleled transparency into the infrastructure."
"It's great for monitoring services and applications."
"The most valuable feature of Instana Dynamic APM is auto-instrumentation."
"With auto-discovery, we didn't need to consider much. We just installed the agent on the host and it was able to detect everything from the host level up to the service level, for whatever stack was installed, and that includes containers and dockers."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"In terms of sales or market perspective, they must invest in Latin America with professionals with a more marked presence."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"The integration must be improved."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"I think that Instana should improve the university and the certification process, so the users can find experts in Instana with their certification module process."
"We should be able to go back to scenarios during or before the issue. There should be something like a history playback. Such a feature or functionality would be good."
"The solution's monitoring is pretty weak and should be improved."
"While it is already quite good, there is room for improvement in terms of providing better functionality"
"The integration could be improved with more plugins or open API."
"New Relic has a better UI in terms of how it presents the data."
"We'd always like to see additional functionalities."
"Many managers, as well as our customers, used to ask for reports, such as "top X number of queries that are slow," or "top pages that have the highest number of issues." This is something that can be improved by Instana. Currently, they don't have that kind of reporting available out-of-the-box."
