Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I like it that one can match IPs with the application name.""The most valuable aspect of this solution is the integration with their other systems. It's easy to understand and it points out the relevant problems in the enterprise.""Clicks to root cause - fast & easy to diagnose and deep-dive""The capability of analysing each individual transaction captured to a very low level detail (method call/line of code).""As an Administrator, before we bought this AppInternals, I didn't have visibility on why items were slow or why an application was not running. This gives us the ability to see what's going on. The application is load balancing. We can now see if its own server has issues or just one specific server has issues.""Transaction Tracing is the most useful. Being able to have the transaction stitched together so we can see where the problem is has proven invaluable.""We just control on the backend of AppInternals what we want to instrument and what we don't want to instrument.""The product is very useful to find problems in middleware for the application servers, especially agent instrumentation and management is user friendly."

"It's a solid piece of software. It's stable.""The most valuable feature of OmniPeek is the ability to assign custom color codes to the different packets easily.""The most valuable feature is OmniPeek is user-friendly.""The most valuable features are the voice bot, which checks the quality of service for voice, and the expert view that gives me insight on what and where to troubleshoot.""I believe the most crucial feature of OmniPeek search is the ability to sniff packets based on channel switching.""The most valuable feature of OmniPeek was the ability it gave us to see the connection procedure."

Cons
"Deployment and agent patch management is not managed centrally, resulting in a large level of effort to update.""The technical support is not very good and should be improved.""I would like for it to have automated updates, the way the product updates itself should be all automated, as opposed to what it is now.""They should find a way for report generation from TTW to run quicker.""The admin dashboard could be easier as it takes a little bit of time to get used to it.""We'd like to be able to find out performance problems on application class and methods.""Support for PHP, DB and other applications need to be supported.""The recording mechanism for synthetic transactions could be improved as well."

"Making it more clear on how to configure the filters, or really automating them, would be an improvement.""The solution's automation has room for improvement.""I would like to see the tool work in an open environment the same as how it does in a closed environment.""I would like to see the saving feature improved. We have had issues if you do not save your progress then you have to start from the beginning.""I don't see a clear roadmap in the future for improving this software.""I am not using OmniPeek for automation, we only do manual testing. Automation testing is tedious to do. The automation should be more user-friendly. I have exposed some APIs but the usage is not user-friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The licensing model is expensive compared to its competitors, but the service it gives to your business, and the data quality, means that it's worth it."
  • "The licensing model for v9 is better where it is an individual license per server, while v10 licenses are per JVM/ .NET and server instance. The latter model appears to be the model that other APM vendors are using."

  • "The pricing for this solution could be improved, as it is a very expensive product."
  • "There are different types of licenses available."
