"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is Proactive Monitoring and Alerting."
"The features that I like best are the dashboard and Business Journey."

"It helped to find quick solutions for specific business transactions."
"It has improved my organization because we are able to proactively and reactively look at performance issues."
"The SAP monitoring element is very helpful."
"It provides everything into one view, so we can track information from one place to another."
"It is the best monitoring tool for Oracle databases."
"The most valuable features are security and speed."
"The product gives us as much control as we can have by providing a complete picture of the whole set of Oracle products."
"It's a useful feature to be able to see the top SQL, the number of executions, the CPU, and the resources that it's using."
"I think the look and feel and the accessibility to the databases, the scale of environment support."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Oracle Enterprise Manager was straightforward."

"The 13cR2 updates to the OEM family, strongly integrate Cloud (off-site, hybrid and on-premise) services providing a seamless way to see all of your resources regardless of where they are deployed."

"There are many KPIs that are not available in AppDynamics."
"I think I would like to see a better way to deploy and upgrade the machine agents that we use. Currently, we have to use SCCM, and that might just be our environment with the customer."
"The integration with cloud services is still pending with AppDynamics. We would like the product to be serverless."
"AppDynamics lacks integration with cloud technology. It probably isn't a good fit for emerging enterprises because it's an on-premise solution, and many newer companies are moving to the cloud. AppDynamics' on-premise technology works reasonably well, but it doesn't have cloud features."

"They should improve the hover text context. This would provide assistance whenever a task is attempted by a DBA."
