It can be delivered on a specialised appliance or on the customer's hardware, but the GUI is quite basic.
Velocimetrics can be deployed as a software or hardware based solution. It captures business-level data from multiple sources, then associates, correlates and aggregates this information together in real-time. The product can be clustered for resilience and scaled to cope with complex and high…

Dashboards facilitate prompt alerts but discovery feature needs enhancement
I would recommend Broadcom DX Application Performance Management if a customer doesn't have any existing performance solution. However, ten years ago, the solution was better, and now there are many competitive options. My overall rating would be between six and seven. The product rating I would give is 6.5 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It provides good forensic investigations features allowing review of what else was going on at the time of an incident."
"It helps us prioritize application performance issues. It has assisted triage where we can drill down and see where exactly the problem lies."
"The time it takes to track problems in applications is the most valuable return that we have from this solution."
"In application performance, it's the best one in the market."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...there is a very easy way to deal with it by adding more servers to the application."
"It has helped us to showcase business use cases better to our clients during demos or PoCs."
"It gives us insight into the functional health of the application, if we have any hot spots."
"Proactive snapshots of transactions and all details of a transaction are saved in case of an error."
"In the newer versions of the application, they had something called a Triage Map that basically breaks it down from a service perspective, so you actually see it from a service perspective and then you see what components make up that service, which really helps the business because they are not seeing individual servers or individual devices, they're seeing it from a service level, which is what everybody wants to see."
 

Cons

"The GUI is quite basic and can look messy very quickly"
"Probe-based network appliance: Add more protocols (currently only supports TCP, HTTP and HTTPS) Software / Consoles / Dashboards"
"It needs to work on the mobility and the digital aspects, as they are currently getting merged in today’s scenario."
"It needs more features, more performance, especially in a huge environment."
"We have pretty much every tool we need. What I need for this tool to be able to demonstrate is that it totally surpasses the competition."
"In order for the tool to be successful, at least in our organization, it will need to have more self-serve features for implementation, instrumentation, and then modification of metric data from the APM."
"CA Introscope has performance and data collection issues."
"It was complex configuring the service transactions from CEM."
"We have had stability issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Broadcom is a better and cheaper option from the financial perspective. It also depends on the DLP plug."
"The pricing structure should be based on memory or CPU usage rather than the number of agents, as it makes the solution more expensive for us."
"Setup costs are quite competitive relative to other solutions, and simpler."
"The license for Broadcom DX Application Performance Management is annual. The licensing model could improve because there is not any limit to deploying the agent, there should be some limits on it."
"Althougth it is a bit expensive, it is really worth it"
"Dynatrace is the most expensive of these tools followed by AppDynamics which is "medium-expensive." CA APM is a bit lower in price than either Dynatrace or AppDynanics... In my opinion, if you can afford it, go for AppDynamics instead of CA APM."
"The licensing costs are expensive."
"On pricing, CA is very competitive. I think that's going to help in the long run."
