Has the capability to automatically integrate with a large number of products
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten. I have not worked much on other technologies, like SAP or VMware's virtualization part, on-prem infrastructure, or cloud infrastructure. Instana Infrastructure Monitoring is so fast and easy to adapt that it works fine. I have not explored other operating systems or infrastructure solutions because my company doesn't have that customer scale. Most of our customers are on-prem or on AWS or Azure, but Instana Infrastructure Monitoring adapts to their infrastructure very well. My company came to know how well Instana Infrastructure Monitoring adapts to our customers' infrastructures when we take care of the PoC phase. Around 12 to 15 people in my company use the product.

Efficient file system process monitoring and CPU memory monitoring
There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and customization. Maybe the graphical representation can be improved. It can be enhanced for better visualization. It could be a little better. And the graph center can be improved. When it comes to additional features, some automation reports should be enabled, like CPU and memory. So I want to generate a report for all the servers. I need to know yesterday's average, minimum, and maximum CPU usage, as well as the minimum utilization on the servers. I want to automate the report generation. It would be great if any product in our system can provide that functionality. It will be helpful for the customers.
