"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is that you can easily determine the load on the application."
"That visual representation’s been really good, also the overhead that AppDynamics creates is quite small. We've tried Dynatrace in the past. Some of the applications didn't work as well with Dynatrace."
"I have found the main feature of the solution to be its ability to analyze an application's code to see where there are issues. Additionally, it is easy to use and configure."
"After we implemented this solution, we can easily determine the root cause of issues."
"The release management capabilities are great."
"The transaction snapshots let you find out where the application broke; it pinpoints where in the call stack, and then how long it took to resolve."
"I find troubleshooting is quicker because we can drill down into the end points and see which endpoints are getting critical. Visibility-wise, the micro details are easy to find."
"InfoVista 5View NetFlow allows us to control the application layer and manage API connections, i.e. Facebook logins or whatever other third-party API services we require."
"The training on the dashboards that is provided could be a little bit better, as could the use cases. They should have some good examples out there. As it is right now, I had to scour YouTube to find some stuff."
"More native support for other hardware is needed because having to install various extensions and perform extra setup for different devices is really challenging, and not as easy or straightforward as it is in other products."
"It could do with more than one data centre/multiple AWS accounts in a pane of glass. Also, improved scalability to large environments would be helpful."
"The integration with cloud services is still pending with AppDynamics. We would like the product to be serverless."
"Sometimes, it is hard to navigate through and find if something is wrong or figure out where an error stemmed from."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"The AppDynamics installation process needs to be more straightforward. Deploying the product is also tricky."
"There are many KPIs that are not available in AppDynamics."
"A little bit better documentation on the details is needed because this subject is not easy sometimes to understand, which limits the capability of the software."
