Find out what your peers are saying about Dynatrace, New Relic, AppDynamics and others in Mobile APM."The most valuable feature of the solution is its GUI."
"Whenever the application crashes from user behavior, we can easily simulate the error. We are happy with this feature and find it to be valuable."
"We have found the scalability to be quite good."
"There are many features that are very valuable to us, but the ability to monitor the status of the users' experience in real-time is one of them."
"In the case of a mobile banking application, AppDynamics Mobile Real-User Monitoring successfully reduced the response time from eight seconds to just one second. In another example, the tool identified an issue within the mobile app, causing lost transactions in the billing system."
"For anybody who is looking into enhancing or improving their application code quality, I would definitely recommend this solution."
"With the APM you can replay the end user session and see issues quickly by viewing the session."
"Real time database monitoring and alerting are valuable."
"At a glance I can easily see what is going on with all of my VMware environments, including top consumers of resources."
"It provides a history of the activities on our SQL servers."
"Capacity on database and file servers. I found the algorithms to forecast growth and concerns particularly intuitive."
"The most valuable feature is drill-down monitoring, which shows us from one interface the transaction chain from the front end to back end."
"Infrastructure Monitoring and End User Monitoring are the product’s most valuable features to me."
"Sometimes we can solve problems before they occur."
"I would like to see a better way to automate actions based on the events generated by the tool."
"There may be some older technologies that are still covered, however, it's not as plug-and-play. You can still do it, however, it takes slightly more effort for engineers to cover old technologies such as C++, Delphi, and so on. It still can be done. It's just not as easy as, for example, covering Java."
"In terms of improvements we would like to see, we want to understand what the battery consumption metrics are whenever a user is viewing. It would be really helpful for us if we could get those details levels."
"I would like to see accommodation for millisecond granularity, as we only have one-second granularity now."
"The way the agentless monitoring and agent monitoring get used is to be decided by the user, but there is no clarification on the setup phase or on how and why to use the aforementioned options."
"The only improvement I see is intercepting calls in a mobile application without injecting additional code. Currently, when instrumenting or monitoring a mobile application, it's necessary to release updates, prompt users to upgrade, and inject code into the backend. It would be beneficial if there were a method to intercept these calls without requiring users to download and upgrade the application. However, I'm unsure about the feasibility of such an approach."
"Being able to incorporate other bespoke monitoring into Foglight would have made the tool even more useful."
"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."
"The version compatibility needs work."
"I think installation and setup needs little more improvement especially when you are installing with external database."
"SQL agents often failed but again this may have been addressed in future versions."
"I want to see a new interface that contains HTML5 features. The current version of Foglight (on-premise edition) is so fusty in comparison with leaders of Gartner APM Quadrant - i.e. Appdynamics, NewRelic, Dynatrace."
"My only complaint from Foglight for monitoring is that you only get a plot for five minute average for metrics like CPU and Memory, on the application side I can see metrics more quickly at 15 seconds for metrics like active sessions, heap. I would like to see the same for CPU and memory."
"They need to improve the stability of FxM and FxV."
