We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature in this solution, for our business, is the clear way of projecting the connections between the database and the traffic inflow. This is very helpful when troubleshooting issues.""The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ability to discover and track transactions.""Data monitoring is the most valuable feature.""The product is easy to install, it took about half an hour. The use and the configurations are simple as well.""AppDynamics Database Monitoring's dashboarding is its best feature.""The ability to identify the top running queries has been extremely valuable for us.""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.""To be honest, it's a fantastic product."

Cons
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring would be a better product if it could support new technology, such as cloud technology. Even Dynatrace lacks support for newer technologies.""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.""The setup, implementation and use are clumsy and need to be refined.""I would like the solution to be more customizable to meet our client's requirements.""AppDynamics Database Monitoring could improve the price of the solution, it is costly.""The synthetic scripting for end-user monitoring could be a little bit broader. Instead of using just Python, they can include a few other languages so that not everyone has to jump on the bandwagon for Python and do Selenium scripting. They can open up that a bit to make it simpler for people to do the scripting.""The application end of AppDynamics Database Monitoring needs to improve by checking which applications consume licenses.""Based on the user experience feedback that we have had, I think that the most important thing to improve is the availability of the SaaS, the cloud environment."

"My biggest complaint about ADA is that you have to rely on dedicated appliances.""The user interface needs improvement."

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."
  • More AppDynamics Database Monitoring Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This is an expensive solution and there is a single price to pay for licensing, with no options."

    Overview

    More than half of application performance bottlenecks originate in the database, but most application teams have little or no visibility into database performance. With AppDynamics' database performance management product, you get 100% visibility into application performance, from the browser to the database.

    Key Benefits

    • Visualize end-to-end application performance, from the browser to the database
    • Get alerts when database thresholds are violated
    • Monitor key performance metrics like top users, programs, SQL, objects and more.
    • See execution plans for slow SQL to isolate performance bottlenecks

    CA Application Delivery Analysis provides end-to-end response time monitoring at multiple component levels, giving Network Administrators the ability to quickly identify performance bottlenecks and to identify root cause in minutes as opposed to hours or days, resulting in up to 80% improvement in IT productivity and reduced Mean Time To Repair (MTTR).
