ROI is hard to specify; however, incidents like impending ransomware attacks highlight its value, though those are exceptional events.
It is important to stick with available features and provide customers with clear, precise details about what can and cannot be done to avoid anomalies.
I find the licensing model convenient and clear enough, and I have seen a return on investment with OpsRamp.

They have a good reputation, and the support is commendable.
Dynatrace's customer service and technical support for this product is good.
Having a dedicated firefighter team for each MSP would be beneficial.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.3
Dynatrace is highly scalable, handling large-scale environments efficiently with minimal overhead, though scaling costs can be a concern.
Sentiment score
7.1
OpsRamp offers scalable solutions for user management and monitoring, though it received moderate ratings due to some connection challenges.
If it's an enterprise, increasing the number of instances doesn’t pose problems.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.6
Dynatrace is highly stable, with users praising its reliability, quick support for issues, and proactive development efforts.
Sentiment score
6.9
OpsRamp is stable and low-maintenance, with minor scaling issues, often rated higher for stability than competitors like SolarWinds.
Generally, all are stable at ninety-nine point nine nine percent, but if the underlying infrastructure is not deployed correctly, stability may be problematic.
There have been no stability issues with Dynatrace.
 

Room For Improvement

Dynatrace users seek improved .NET support, customization, performance, security, integrations, support, pricing clarity, and interface simplification.
OpsRamp needs improvements in ITSM maturity, user interface, automation, alert accuracy, support, and AIOps capabilities to stay competitive.
The definition of enterprise is loosely used, however, from a holistic security perspective, including infrastructure, network, ports, software, applications, transactions, and databases, there are areas lacking, especially in network monitoring tools.
They have been the pioneers from inception, and they remain at the top of the Gartner chart.
I'm specifically looking at AIOps and how we can monitor AIOps-related things, considering we have LLMs and all that stuff.
Technical support should be improved.
 

Setup Cost

Dynatrace offers advanced monitoring but can be costly due to a complex pricing model and potential scaling expenses.
OpsRamp provides an economical, clear licensing model with annual resource-based bundles, offering cost-effective access to the full platform.
Dynatrace is known to be costly, which delayed its integration into our system.
If I would ask you to rate price from 1 to 10, where 1 is cheap and 10 is expensive, how many points would you give to it?
it does not strike me as expensive, and the licensing model is clear enough.
 

Valuable Features

Dynatrace excels in transaction tracing, AI analysis, and comprehensive visibility, enhancing operational efficiency with real-time insights and easy deployment.
OpsRamp offers robust monitoring, AIOps, integration, and analytics, enhancing efficiency, usability, and insights for hybrid environments.
The integration with Power BI for generating detailed reports is a standout feature.
Dynatrace's AI-driven Davis engine absolutely helps identify performance issues by showing root cause analysis for us up to 200%; whatever is integrated, if it is visible, it can stitch and show.
I find the classic service analysis, service analysis, distribution tracing, and the technology stack that it shows most valuable about Dynatrace, along with the Scape View.
I have utilized OpsRamp's capability for predictive analytics, and it has been important in fostering collaboration between my IT and development teams under DevOps methodologies, where applicable.

Featured Reviews

Anand_Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides a comprehensive view by integrating with other monitoring systems
There may be an issue since there are many tools like Splunk involved in network monitoring. From an IP perspective, Dynatrace is performing well. If they want to develop in network monitoring, they can, as it's part of their product line. It's not rocketry, so they can accomplish it. If I, as an SI, look at it from an enterprise perspective, considering the cost from the client, I prefer not to go with multiple systems, as they don't provide a complete 360-degree view. They need to improve on claims about being an enterprise system. The definition of enterprise is loosely used, however, from a holistic security perspective, including infrastructure, network, ports, software, applications, transactions, and databases, there are areas lacking, especially in network monitoring tools.
Muhammad Umair Gulfam - PeerSpot reviewer
Automates Azure resource monitoring and inventory management but slow with real-time patch status
There is room for improvement in the performance of the product. The main problem is with patch management. The actual problem we're facing is with the patch management feature. It's not real-time, which creates inconsistencies. The machine might say there are no updates available, while the OpsRamp agent reports that everything's patched. It's a mismatch. We recently started a new marketplace for clients where we manage patch management. We try to share knowledge with OpsRamp, but they don't have a rapid process for product enhancements. Our main pain point is the lack of engagement from the product team. If someone from OpsRamp could discuss our concerns, work on future enhancements, or even give us an estimated timeline (ETA), it would be a huge improvement.
