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.""We just control on the backend of AppInternals what we want to instrument and what we don't want to instrument.""The capability of analysing each individual transaction captured to a very low level detail (method call/line of code).""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.""I like it that one can match IPs with the application name.""Browsermetrix, which is real-user monitoring via JS injection and linked back to TTW via cookie. It allows us to see the experience of every user hitting our sites and analyze performance by region, browser, etc.""Clicks to root cause - fast & easy to diagnose and deep-dive""The product is very useful to find problems in middleware for the application servers, especially agent instrumentation and management is user friendly."

More Aternity AppInternals [EOL] Pros →

"There are alerting mechanisms in place to let us know, for example, if a device is not responding to a ping test and is probably not going to work.""Once you set the threshold on your environment, it feels very real-time""The most valuable features are monitoring and reporting.""One notable feature of this software is its page speed setup, which is highly commendable. Additionally, the metrics it provides are also impressive."

Cons
"They should find a way for report generation from TTW to run quicker.""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.""We'd like to be able to find out performance problems on application class and methods.""The technical support is not very good and should be improved.""Support for PHP, DB and other applications need to be supported.""It would be great if the solution could offer fixed bundles and more features.""Deployment and agent patch management is not managed centrally, resulting in a large level of effort to update.""The recording mechanism for synthetic transactions could be improved as well."

More Aternity AppInternals [EOL] Cons →

"Some of the functions could improve by making them easier.""I would like to see better integration with other products.""Technical support could use some improvement.""Pingdom is always improving everything in its product. So, they should work on the GUI."

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 →

  • "This price of this solution is reasonable."
  • "The license was paid yearly and included technical support."
  • "While I wouldn't describe it as excessively expensive, if you require specific and reliable monitoring, SolarWinds can be a suitable option. The advantage is that SolarWinds offers a free version as well. If you don't heavily rely on its monitoring capabilities and are content with its basic features, the free version could suffice for your needs."
