We performed a comparison between Aternity AppInternals [EOL] and OpenText SiteScope based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The capability of analysing each individual transaction captured to a very low level detail (method call/line of code)."
"Synthetic transactions, WMI and SNMP query capability."
"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."
"The product is very useful to find problems in middleware for the application servers, especially agent instrumentation and management is user friendly."
"I like it that one can match IPs with the application name."
"Clicks to root cause - fast & easy to diagnose and deep-dive"
"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."
"Simplest tool for monitoring servers, web content, databases and other hardware. Its dashboard is really good."
"The Monitor Templates functionality allowed us to spin up monitoring with .csv files pretty easily."
"Infrastructure monitoring is the most valuable feature."
"It's easy to template standard monitoring configurations, and automate monitoring configuration."
"SiteScope has built-in flat file DB, hence it removes the dependency of an external DB for higher stability."
"The URL monitoring is excellent."
"It's integrated with different monitoring tools, such as AppDynamics."
"Being able to create your monitors for monitoring your internal URLs and databases and other things like that is valuable."
"The recording mechanism for synthetic transactions could be improved as well."
"I would like for it to have automated updates, the way the product updates itself should be all automated, as opposed to what it is now."
"It would be great if the solution could offer fixed bundles and more features."
"The admin dashboard could be easier as it takes a little bit of time to get used to it."
"They should find a way for report generation from TTW to run quicker."
"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."
"We'd like to be able to find out performance problems on application class and methods."
"I would be very interested in having transaction traceability included in the product, to give us a better view of what is really going wrong in a particular method and action."
"Full application functionality available via the API. There are some functions you can perform managing monitors, that are only available through the UI."
"They have not kept up with browser security requirements or advances in GUIs, they switched to a corruptible database architecture instead of text config files."
"The graphs and dashboard in the solution are areas that need improvement."
"It could be more reliable using a database repository instead of a log repository."
"It should improve its integrations with various tools, especially service management tools."
"We'd like a uniform interface for monitoring our system, since that's the purpose of SiteScope."
"The tool needs to support new technologies like Kubernetes. It also needs to improve scalability."
