"Infrastructure Monitoring and End User Monitoring are the product’s most valuable features to me."
"Intuitive, Single-pane-of-glass dashboards for real-time statistics and long-term statistics for capacity management and in-depth analytics"

"Sometimes we can solve problems before they occur."
"The ability to track performance of an application or application suite over time is extremely valuable to our business partners and for our application development team with near real time results."

"In the next release, I would like to see the possibility of sharing the metric from this solution with other solutions."

"We are running a Webmethods stack (Software AG) and Foglight is unable to instrument. We are in a POC with Dynatrace and it was able to instrument with little effort."
"I would perhaps like to see more SSMS connections."
"It needs a more intuitive way to create and implement custom "Cartridges" to be deployed through out a Federated environment."

"I think installation and setup needs little more improvement especially when you are installing with external database."
"There are some metrics I'd like to track that are difficult to find or implement into a tracking solution without a lot of manual work."
"They need to improve the stability of FxM and FxV."
