Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Synthetic transactions, WMI and SNMP query capability.""The product is very useful to find problems in middleware for the application servers, especially agent instrumentation and management is user friendly.""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.""We just control on the backend of AppInternals what we want to instrument and what we don't want to instrument.""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.""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.""I like it that one can match IPs with the application name.""The capability of analysing each individual transaction captured to a very low level detail (method call/line of code)."

"I have found the most valuable feature is application performance management.""The product has a great dashboard.""The reporting of the solution is very good.""Technical support is always live and they're supportive.""Some of the most valuable features of SolarWinds are the topology discovery and network performance analysis.""The sum solution, NTA, and DPA."

Cons
"We have put in a request as an enhancement that we would like to search for items. If we're searching for a URL and we want to know was it a get or was it a post.""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.""It would be great if the solution could offer fixed bundles and more features.""They should find a way for report generation from TTW to run quicker.""Support for PHP, DB and other applications need to be supported.""The recording mechanism for synthetic transactions could be improved as well.""Deployment and agent patch management is not managed centrally, resulting in a large level of effort to update."

More Aternity AppInternals [EOL] Cons →

"The integration with Unix services should be a bit more straightforward.""In terms of the technology, I think they need to put some more advanced troubleshooting into SolarWinds, in terms of AI capabilities. That's the next generation, especially in the cases of APIs which have already adopted AI capabilities into their products.""I would like to see more integration with other tools that are available on the market.""The implementation needs improvement. It needs to get modernized with the newer cloud scenario in both public and private deployment models.""The solution should be more user-friendly.""AppOptics would benefit from having a much more centralized view."

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."
  • More Aternity AppInternals [EOL] Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Mostly, it's a perpetual license. We don't have any customers using the subscription right now—it's mostly a perpetual license that the customers purchase. The licensing is based on the number of elements, whereas other solutions are node-based."
  • "I believe the current licensing cost is reasonable."
  • "Since it's a negotiable rate, I would rate the pricing as a five out of five."
