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…

Root cause analysis has become possible but complex setup and agent issues still slow investigations
The limitations I notice include the instability of the agent, which crashes, and the application itself consuming memory under heavy loads. Additionally, the customizations are not easy to build, especially for new parsers and functionalities that are just supported out-of-the-box. Splunk AppDynamics needs to be more user-friendly so that even someone who does not know what is happening should be able to easily find the root cause of issues, as the tool is specifically designed for application developers, not from a user perspective for problem identification. My experience with the application performance monitoring capabilities of Splunk AppDynamics indicates that it is complex. The correlation from the front end to the back end is not working properly. In an application using the EUM feature and having the app agent, the app agent gives me the transaction data, but the EUM data does not correlate to the backend transactions, and I do not know why. It can be very complex to find the root cause in those scenarios, as there is a disparity in metrics, making it challenging. Even though Splunk AppDynamics is trying, my very large environment presents hurdles that medium-scale organizations might not experience. After spending around three to four years trying to get value from it, I still feel a lack of satisfaction. To get closer to a rating of 10 in the future, I would like to see whatever features are being provided made to work, particularly in large environments. Splunk AppDynamics claims it can do 100 things, but if those things are not functioning cohesively, it is ineffective. Instead of offering 100 features that do not work together, it would be better to focus on a smaller set of features that operate effectively. Changes happen daily with new applications and technologies, and Splunk AppDynamics needs to adapt more swiftly to keep up. The feature that helps detect and protect against vulnerabilities does raise concerns. I experience vulnerabilities in Splunk AppDynamics that I communicate to support for fixes, and they often respond by indicating that some fixes are available in new versions. This creates a continuous cycle of raising issues and waiting for resolutions through version updates.

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."
"Knowing which tables on the database were working the most was valuable. It helped the client understand where they need to focus. They streamlined a lot of their queries and brought the resource usage down. It helped them to find long-running queries. They rewrote them completely so that they don't take as long and the application performs better."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy since a separate machine is required, and it is not directly installed on a database as it is a type of proxy."
"I definitely recommend it."
"Right now, we already have that monitor in production for that particular application to see how the end user behaves in that production environment."
"We have found the scalability to be quite good."
"The features and advantages I value most about Splunk AppDynamics include the L1 to L7 visibility we obtain on the application front."
"AppDynamics' best feature is automation - for example, when I add a note, it can understand the data automatically."
"Transition tracing is the most valuable is pretty easy and useful, but the user experience piece is also good."
 

Cons

"The GUI is quite basic and can look messy very quickly"
"The main concern is the extensions and their documentation, particularly for the installation of Azure app services. It is lacking some documentation, which is why we are always with the AppDynamics team for support to get the details."
"Further integrations with other monitoring systems would be very helpful. I want to see it interacting more with the infrastructure, to get more statistics and details from our infrastructure environment and not only applications."
"In the next release, I would like to see the configuration of the data and more support for new applications. It should support new languages."
"Sometimes different results appear for the same scenario."
"Price can get really expensive sometimes, depending on the type of setup you have. Because it is priced per JVM, the price can increase pretty fast, into the millions."
"Transactions are not collected across the board."
"The user experience is quite confusing. There are too many different development stages. The UI is not very intuitive."
"Sometimes, it is hard to navigate through and find if something is wrong or figure out where an error stemmed from."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is expensive. However, our time to recover has been reduced, and this product has helped recuperate costs and provided us with ROI."
"As compared to other applications, its price is moderate. Its price is neither very high nor very low."
"The cost is prohibitive."
"Take into consideration what you get for specific pricing models and how much it costs to add on things you may need later.​"
"AppDynamics is more expensive than competitors."
"It could be a bit lower, but looking at the scalability, functionality, and other things, you can understand why AppDynamics is so expensive as compared to some of the cheaper products that don't have that full single pane of glass they've got. Dynatrace has got three different elements that you need to log into just to get a full view, which is not so good, and because of that, it is a bit cheaper."
"AppDynamics offers a yearly basis license."
"The tool is expensive."
