Very easy to use and gather value from the start. Easy to deploy on servers with little impact. Easier to gather information from the Server than from the Network Switch when there are multiple servers to combine for an application study.

This kind of question is nonsensical to me since the tool is selected based on the service it is supposed to provide. No tool is simple, in as much as they all require certain competency skills. Firstly, a proper and wide range of the IT system is required. Secondly, there must be sufficient time to learn about the format of the tool, how it is designed and how it must be used. This applies to every tool, be it APM, NPM or SIEM. With this in mind, it is up to the user to have the competency and requisite knowledge of the landscape and system so that he may use it properly.
Of course, there are certain tools which have, lets say, a nicer dashboard than others, such as Dynatrace. But, the dashboard is merely an extra service provided by the tool. The actual purposes of the tool and its attendant advantages is not the dashboard. It is to provide intelligence for understanding and analyzing the traffic and for reproducing and doing synthetics.
Really, this question comes back to the person involved, the one who purchases the product and defines its need.

I have found the AppResponse, which is a packet capture solution, very good. It gives you the ability to drill down back in time. You've got all the packets there. You can troubleshoot it later, not immediately. It's very interesting.
It also has the modules to troubleshoot web applications, database transactions, and unified communications, all in one. It is something between an NPM and an APM.

The application response time is very user friendly. With some APM solutions, it can take a long time to check a periodic report, but you can get all the necessary details quickly with AppResponse.
