"It gives me the ability to trace logs between transactions, for example, a DB transaction or JVM transaction from one hub to the other. I can easily find out where the problem is or where the bottleneck of the issues lies."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to take a report, and in particular, a visual, and link it to actual application performance and then the consequences. This means you can show how an incident or action has an effect on the business."
"The release management capabilities are great."
"The SAP monitoring element is very helpful."
"The most valuable feature is the live reporting on the current health\performance of our application"
"After we implemented this solution, we can easily determine the root cause of issues."
"In AppDynamics, everywhere I go, there's some sort of grouping and aggregation function, or there's some sort of timeline that lets me zero in more quickly on the traces that I need. They go to more pains to aggregate and bubble the important ones to the top. That removes a lot of manual work."
"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is Proactive Monitoring and Alerting."
"Browsermetrix, which is real-user monitoring via JS injection and linked back to TTW via cookie. It allows us to see the experience of every user hitting our sites and analyze performance by region, browser, etc."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is the integration with their other systems. It's easy to understand and it points out the relevant problems in the enterprise."
"Clicks to root cause - fast & easy to diagnose and deep-dive"
"The product is very useful to find problems in middleware for the application servers, especially agent instrumentation and management is user friendly."
"The capability of analysing each individual transaction captured to a very low level detail (method call/line of code)."
"As an Administrator, before we bought this AppInternals, I didn't have visibility on why items were slow or why an application was not running. This gives us the ability to see what's going on. The application is load balancing. We can now see if its own server has issues or just one specific server has issues."
"We just control on the backend of AppInternals what we want to instrument and what we don't want to instrument."
"Transaction Tracing is the most useful. Being able to have the transaction stitched together so we can see where the problem is has proven invaluable."
"There are many KPIs that are not available in AppDynamics."
"I’d like to see better out-of-the-box visual reporting so that we can roll this up to management."
"The AppDynamics installation process needs to be more straightforward. Deploying the product is also tricky."
"The documentation and training material have room for improvement."
"Additional support for NextGen mobile platforms also needs to be high in the roadmap prioritizations"
"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."
"Their agents sometimes claim to be very lightweight, especially with databases, but they are very heavy. They can take up more compute than the actual work that we need to do."
"Regarding Search Guard functionality, there is room for improvement."
"We'd like to be able to find out performance problems on application class and methods."
"We have put in a request as an enhancement that we would like to search for items. If we're searching for a URL and we want to know was it a get or was it a post."
"They should find a way for report generation from TTW to run quicker."
"The admin dashboard could be easier as it takes a little bit of time to get used to it."
"Deployment and agent patch management is not managed centrally, resulting in a large level of effort to update."
"Support for PHP, DB and other applications need to be supported."
"The recording mechanism for synthetic transactions could be improved as well."
"The technical support is not very good and should be improved."
