Integration between NPM and APM solutions would improve efficiency. There is no agent on the server site related to AppResponse.

Alluvio AppResponse should improve its ability to expand across multiple operating systems.
Alluvio AppResponse should include the ability to monitor Linux servers.

Marketing is complex and not well understood, so often this product is not considered a good fit just for a surface look. Applications are getting more complex as there are islands of services that are combined to provide value to the customer. The response time delay is hidden within service calls that are being made. This family of tools provides the insight needed to know where that response delay is happening. It also provides insight as to the number of service calls that are being made. While each service call may be short, doing 1,000 of them, brings major delays to the overall response time. Finding where that delay is happening is key to improving the application. These tools provide that insight and provide the ability to show the total response time that is taking place. As a side note:
Often I used the Capture side of the product more than the Analysis side of the product. The ability to do captures without having to use tcpdump on each system is very helpful. This ability takes the grunt work out of gathering the basic information that is required for deeper analysis.They (Opnet) also use Wireshark in their analysis phase and then add even more analysis for some deeper dive information. This is helpful for general analysis. Also some of their decodes have been helpful as well.

The AI features should be addressed in respect of the analysis and intelligence that must be supported and delivered in the tool to predigest the large amounts of data.
If Alluvio AppResponse reduces its cost, it will be more beneficial for customers to monitor their application and network performance. Additionally, integrating more features for application monitoring and focusing more on security threat monitoring would be even better.

There is always room for improvement. I would say improving the user interface is the most important. Also, faster support for some new security features and support for the secure key exchange.
There have been a lot of changes in the last few years with the names in Riverbed. SteelCentral used to be called Cascade. Every two years they change the name of the products. Somebody who is new, or even not so new, needs time to remember the names. This is not something crucial to do and when something is good and working well, why should they just rename it?

The admin dashboard could be easier, as it takes a little bit of time to get used to it. Also, they need to better integrate with products and solutions from different vendors.

I'm not sure if I see room for improvement at this point. It works quite well for us. I'm not sure what other vendors offer, so it's hard for me to look at it and see things that may be missing from the offering.
The pricing is on the higher side of things. If they could lower it, that would be ideal.

We often have problems when it comes to integration with products from other vendors. With the products we sell, we are often looking to build holistic solutions.
Technical support needs to be more responsive.
