We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ability to identify the top running queries has been extremely valuable for us.""The dashboards are very well-defined.""The good thing with AppDynamics Databases is that it will give you a pretty good overview of the data, all the database-like tables, long-running queries, jobs running on the databases, and the queries that are taking more time. So, it's at a deeper level with all the database functionalities, and you will get that information. So, it's a pretty good tool in that sense.""In my experience, it's easy to use. There's nothing complex to learn or fear. You can quickly adapt to it without the need for extensive training.""The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is that we can see all query times. If a particular query is taking too much time, we can alert it.""The solution is great for database monitoring. You don't have to install an agent on the database. You just install the server to a database agent. It's a good product for some database administration if you don't want to install an agent on the database for security.""The product is easy to install, it took about half an hour. The use and the configurations are simple as well.""Data monitoring is the most valuable feature."

"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.""The application is easy to use, as it is friendly and graphic.""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.""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.""The speed that you can get AppPulse out there was the brightest spot of this whole process.""It provides a lot of customer insight, understanding the customer's needs, understanding the customer's issues, and it gives me a more proactive approach to solving a customer problem before it happens.""Customer are able to develop more quickly versions in which users can see the application to correct and monetize it.""It identifies transactions and flows of the operations that our customers use with our mobile application."

Cons
"The user access management could be a bit better.""An improvement could be if the monitoring was able to be summarized into something more clear and simple for people who don't have the technical skills on the database side.""It could be more user-friendly for beginners.""The solution needs to support IBM products.""The product lost its place as an industry leader.""I have found it sometimes a bit difficult to trace the transaction all the way through to the application. I'm not sure if that problem is on the database side or on the application side, but that would be something that I would like to be improved. The traceability from the application to the database, sometimes, is a bit of a challenge. If you're using AppDynamics, with the Java agent, for instance, you need to be able to trace it through.""AppDynamics Database Monitoring could improve the price of the solution, it is costly.""The application end of AppDynamics Database Monitoring needs to improve by checking which applications consume licenses."

"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.""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 regulations should be better customized for the kind of data that we cannot send to the SALs environment.""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.""The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime.""It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile.""I think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization.""The ability to get CI information from AppPulse into OMi."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "In terms of pricing, I feel that when you compare the benefits that we get to the price that we paid, it is reasonable."
  • "Pricing is based on the size of the deployment."
  • "There is an annual cost for the use of this solution."
  • "It could be a bit lower, but looking at the scalability, functionality, and other things, you can understand why AppDynamics is so expensive as compared to some of the cheaper products that don't have that full single pane of glass they've got. Dynatrace has got three different elements that you need to log into just to get a full view, which is not so good, and because of that, it is a bit cheaper."
  • "The licensing scheme is very complex. They need to make it easier."
  • "We have purchased a few licenses for AppDynamics Database Monitoring and the price is high."
  • "The license for AppDynamics is procured by our customers."
  • "We have a license-based solution. That means you need a license for each server you monitor."

  • "It was a no-brainer from a cost perspective compared to the other tools that we buy as an IT organization."
