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…

We encountered some challenges while using Dynatrace. Although the initial setup was smooth, fine-tuning alert thresholds and custom metrics took some time. Another challenge was that Dynatrace charges based on host units, so we had to carefully plan our agent deployments. The licensing model is expensive. Additionally, the complexity of setup is an issue. While OneAgent and auto-discover services are powerful, the setup is more complex compared to other tools such as Prometheus and Grafana. These integrations are simple and basic, but Dynatrace setup requires more complexity based on the environment. For new users wanting to use Dynatrace, it is difficult. However, the AI-related solutions and metrics took us to the next level for identifying and fixing things. Dynatrace requires an agent for operation. OneAgent is powerful, but it is also resource-heavy. On lightweight nodes or older systems, the agent can slightly impact performance. If Dynatrace could implement a lightweight agent behavior, we could make things faster. Additionally, if Dynatrace could add a long-term retention policy so that we could store more data and find fine-grained details, that would help us. While Dynatrace managed edition supports on-premises deployment, the SaaS version depends on cloud connectivity. For highly regulated or air-gapped environments, setup and updates can be challenging. Although the initial setup is smooth, if someone wants to fine-tune it and fully understand the tool end-to-end, it could be tricky.

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."
"The most valuable feature is the beautiful UI."
"The best feature of the product for me is the real troubleshooting capability through the PurePath analysis."
"We like the user's experience piece: being able to see, from the browser perspective, the user's behavior; being able to answer questions from our customers about why such and such happened, why the performance was slow, why we had an error."
"Has helped us find issues such as application suspension and to improve web services data."
"The linking is very good in Dynatrace. What happens in other monitoring tools is the linking is not proper. In those solutions, a person has to manually link many of the layers and what is happening in them, while in Dynatrace you get that from the very first visit. For example, if a person is visiting your website, from there it will traverse you to the end. If the application is a Java application, it will traverse you there, to the Method level. So that linking and traversing is better in Dynatrace."
"Google says is that you have a number of things on which you should measure your performance. One is if there's an error or not. Dynatrace tells you whether is an error or not. Second is saturation, whether something is getting saturated. You should be aware of what is getting saturated. Dynatrace even tells you that. The third is if there is a latency. Network latency is also told to me by Dynatrace."
"When we compared other APM tools, Dynatrace was the only one which could give us 100% visibility into the whole codebase, which is key for us because we can find the problem much faster."
"We moved to Dynatrace, because we were looking for one solution that could provide the real answers, not just data."
 

Cons

"The GUI is quite basic and can look messy very quickly"
"Its price, for sure, should be improved. Its price is quite high."
"They've leveraged those security gateways and renamed them ActiveGates, and now there are different web plugins we can run on it... Sometimes the development of those seems to be running very fast and it's not complete. They don't yet function quite as easily as the OneAgents do. But I have hopes that that's going to get better. We have tried the MQ, the Citrix, and the Oracle ActiveGate plugins. They could be sharper. It's the right direction to go. It just seems like it could be smoother."
"The only challenge is that it's an extensive tool that requires a significant amount of time to learn."
"Though, we did have a couple issues in our production environment getting the UEM working. It would crash some of our applications."
"AppMon is lacking the AI that can be found in Dynatrace Managed."
"Dynatrace must reduce the required resources for on-premise, because they are too high."
"The UX/UI needs improvement. It is not easy to learn."
"Right now, we are struggling a bit with stability. We have outages, data loss, and have had to restart, but have not narrowed down exactly what the problem is yet."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The product is really fast to implement and gives customers instant value. This is important, because it reduces costs on the implementation."
"The only limitation with scaling to cloud-native environments is licensing. It all depends on how many DEM units you're willing to license. The more of DEM units that you purchase, the more user data you can collect."
"You get a really well-planned out monitoring suite for the money spent."
"We license it for two environments, typically all of production and all of one lower environment, usually our staging environment. If there is a downside to Dynatrace, the only thing I can think of would be the cost. If it were cheaper, I'd have it in all my environments. I don't think they're charging more than it's worth, by any means. It's just that good software costs money."
"The setup costs for Dynatrace are low, however licensing costs are high."
"Purchasing through the AWS Marketplace is excellent."
"The pricing is a bit on the higher end."
"The cost is somewhat high."
