We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"AppDynamics is scalable. They can monitor billions of transactions because they're not monitoring all transactions. They're monitoring samples. So, they can offer good monitoring for the huge sites.""Knowing which tables on the database were working the most was valuable. It helped the client understand where they need to focus. They streamlined a lot of their queries and brought the resource usage down. It helped them to find long-running queries. They rewrote them completely so that they don't take as long and the application performs better.""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.""The product is stable and the technical support is good.""The most valuable features of AppDynamics Database Monitoring are you can configure the performance and see in real-time what is exactly happening with the applications. Additionally, the dashboards are good.""We were able to correct problems, which led to an increase in availability, time savings, and performance for our solutions.""AppDynamics Database Monitoring's dashboarding is its best feature.""The product is easy to install, it took about half an hour. The use and the configurations are simple as well."

"The product has a very good graphical interface.""The alerting feature is very good because it allows you to set MOS alerts at various network junctures or data points.""We don't have any complaints about the software. According to my team, it's a very good tool that's very intuitive.""Its analytical capability is really good.""One of the valuable features is the ability to create CLI scripts on the fly to fix any issues. We were using it for QoS modeling to ensure that we were properly modeling QoS, and it basically said here is what you need to fix to get this QoS done, whether it is ACL or something else. It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop. It gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning. There are a lot of pieces that LiveNX can give you. It is a total NPM solution for SD-WAN.""All in all, LiveAction LiveNX has become an indispensable tool for maintaining and improving our network's reliability and performance, ultimately supporting our organization's goal of providing timely and dependable delivery services.""The intention and the idea of the filter is great."

Cons
"They could align the product strategy to evolve as a complete solution.""The application monitoring needs improvement. It needs to be easier for someone who isn't a proficient developer.""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.""The day-to-day activities should be less complicated so that anyone can manage it.""AppDynamics Database Monitoring could improve the price of the solution, it is costly.""The product lost its place as an industry leader.""The setup, implementation and use are clumsy and need to be refined.""Stability-wise, we experienced some performance issues when upgrading from 4.4 to 4.5."

More AppDynamics Database Monitoring Cons →

"The tool crashes sometimes when we try to pull reports simultaneously.""It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive.""The only downside to this software is the price.""They need to create a more simplified UI.""Improved documentation and more responsive customer support can help in addressing issues faster.""This is a horrible solution and I think everything needs to be improved.""Sometimes the solution does not register devices properly and that is a bug."

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."
