"This is a stable product and we definitely plan to continue using it in the future."
"Technical support is helpful."
"Once you get past installation, AppDynamics is highly stable and we get good results."
"This solution not only provides answers but also provides sensor data. This allows us to quickly resolve issues that developers may take a long time to solve."
"I think the performance and interface are the most important features."
"Being able to install it on-prem and monitor our on-prem infrastructure is important for us... Most of our infrastructure is on-prem. We have highly scalable systems and AppDynamics will help us monitor our load on-prem. Our systems range from simple to the most complex and it gives us the visibility across transactions, in one dashboard."
"It has improved my organization because we are able to proactively and reactively look at performance issues."
"End-user monitoring (web and mobile)"
"It identifies transactions and flows of the operations that our customers use with our mobile application."
"We can collect data about the user experience and see how the user is behaving with the app, or check the behavior of the app itself."
"With Google Analytics, you choose what performance metrics you want to have reported, but with AppPulse Mobile, you have a global vision of what is really happening inside your app."
"AppPulse Active allows us to very quickly produce synthetic monitoring for our applications."
"The speed that you can get AppPulse out there was the brightest spot of this whole process."
"The application is easy to use, as it is friendly and graphic."
"Customer are able to develop more quickly versions in which users can see the application to correct and monetize it."
"The thing that I like about AppPulse is that it's easy application to install and an easy application to use to provide information for our customers."
"An area that has room for improvement on the CR and ERP would be the addition of monitoring of the internal solution. For example, you can monitor the day-to-day and everything in the transactions with AppDynamics, but there's also a lot going on in the kernel itself that you cannot monitor. The automation needs to improve as well. As it stands, a lot of customization needs to happen before you can use AppDynamics."
"The solution could be more user-friendly for diagnostic purposes. Anyone who is using the solution should be able to infer what that error is about, they should be able to troubleshoot it better."
"The AppDynamics installation process needs to be more straightforward. Deploying the product is also tricky."
"The network diagnostics that they are adding will be really useful. They could add more detail into what is going on in the network."
"I would like to see something that lets me set real dollar figures, not just to outages, but to the solutions as well... when I'm looking at problems and have found a problem that I know I need to address. I could flag it off and have AppDynamics estimate how long a person would have taken to find that without it. That would give me a lot of leverage for justifying the existence of APM, which I really need."
"They are using Flash for their website, which is very slow. We had hoped the website would be much faster to use, and that is definitely what we want to see."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence and machine learning brought in to monitor the statement and payment sum issues we have."
"AppDynamics is new to the cloud and could improve its cloud services, they are following a monolithic monitoring approach."
"Currently, the information for management teams and technical teams are in the same view, but it would be useful if we could separate these views."
"It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile."
"I would love if AppPulse delivered more details about my users, for example, age and sex. It could split up the users into categories based on how frequently they use my product."
"The ability to get CI information from AppPulse into OMi."
"It could be better if you had any of the reports that the customers asked from us, for example, punctually. Unfortunately, the reporter is not that practical."
"The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime."
"I think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization."
"The regulations should be better customized for the kind of data that we cannot send to the SALs environment."
