"The monitoring so far has been good and we are happy with it."
"The simplicity of the dashboard is very good."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to receive in-depth information about applications. It can detect a lot of important information."
"The most valuable feature is application monitoring."
"The stability of New Relic APM is very good."
"It does everything we wanted it to do."
"Working with the solution is very easy. It's user-friendly."
"The breakdown of the response time of different components and getting in-depth details of the slow component are the most valuable features. It is easy to use, and it gets the job done."
"The most valuable feature in AppDynamics is the identifying of the slow responses. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"The AppDyniamics technical support is good. We haven't had any problems with them. They answer very quickly."
"I find troubleshooting is quicker because we can drill down into the end points and see which endpoints are getting critical. Visibility-wise, the micro details are easy to find."
"The release management capabilities are great."
"In 2014 and 2015, AppDynamics was one of the best products on the market."
"The best feature of AppDynamics is the analytics, which gives us the business insights of the application."
"AppDynamics has been stable."
"AppDynamics' most valuable feature is Business iQ, which is based on analytics."
"There are quite a lot of things that we find useful. Splunk agents are useful and good. Its UI is quite impressive."
"The level of robustness on offer is very good."
"The ability to analyze huge amounts of sales data and accurate prediction of sales forecasting is the most valuable feature."
"Splunk can extract all kinds of data. There's no limitation on what kind of structured and unstructured data one needs to extract — it can access any kind of data, including machine-generated data."
"The feature that I have found most valuable with Splunk is the ability to sift through a bunch of data very quickly."
"The solution allows easy gathering and ingestion of the data."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the dashboard. It's very intuitive."
"The solution has plenty of features that are good."
"It is very difficult to award the service level cycles at an endpoint level."
"How granular I could go down at looking at certain data, especially related to the operations, is limited."
"They should bring the pricing down to be more competitive."
"There has been some problem with the agent, and it is just not working well. It is not able to record information with the application server. They have been able to fix the issue, but it took quite a long time. This is the main issue in the APM products and also in New Relic. The mobile application monitoring has been pretty difficult to set up and also quite expensive. It should be a little bit easier and cheaper. Because it is pretty difficult and expensive, many customers don't take it."
"I haven't come across any features that are lacking."
"The older view is much better than the new view that they have. We'd like to go back to that previous version. The user interface just isn't as nice as it used to be."
"New Relic APM can improve the information when we dig deeper to check a problem. There should be more detailed information provided."
"It would be nice if there were pre-made dashboards."
"The end-user experience is not really good because we can't catch all of the transactions. We only can catch the full stack of flow transactions, but I think that this is caused by the technology they use. If they will catch every transaction, it will cause a very big load on the performance of applications. The monitoring of all transactions needs improvement."
"They need to improve the consolidation of agents for the agent's installation process."
"The cost element is an issue. I can't expect the company to change its way of work. However, given the fact that we earn and do all our business in South African Rand, I would prefer to buy in Rand as opposed to the American dollar or British pound."
"AppDynamics is a solution that requires extra learning and could be more user-friendly. Additionally, automated reports would helpful similar to have they have in Google Analytics."
"AppDynamics is dealing with a lot of products and technologies, so we need to have clear documentation."
"There are too many installers available for this solution."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"Installation and configuration can be very tough. An average user without specialized knowledge can't do this. You need to have DevOps and QA teams handle it. During installation, a lot of customers get stuck trying to track the database or the API part, and they have to contact customer support."
"Its search or filtering capability is nice, but it can be improved. It is currently a bit complicated, and it should be simplified. If we can write the search filter in a more simplified way, it would be better."
"We find that the maintenance process could be a lot better."
"I would like Splunk to add more integration. QRadar has many indications with more products than Splunk."
"It needs integration with a configuration management solution."
"Could be more user friendly."
"The solution could improve by giving more email details."
"The cluster environment should be improved. We have a cluster. In the Splunk cluster environment, in the case of heavy searches and heavy load, the Splunk cluster goes down, and we have to put it in the maintenance mode to get it back. We are not able to find the actual culprit for this issue. I know that cluster has RF and SF, but it has been down so many times. There should be something in Splunk to help users to find the reason and the solution for such issues."
"In terms of the interface, it could include some improvements for the look and feel."
