We performed a comparison between BMC TrueSight Operations Management, Broadcom DX Application Performance Management, and CA Application Delivery Analysis [EOL] 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."It works irrespective of the operating system we’re running."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Signature baselines, which have allowed us to fine tune many of our events and significantly reduce the number of events generated."
"I use the solution to monitor servers, databases, Windows, Linux, and web services."
"The major advantage of the product is estate management."
"We can verify uptimes as another source of keeping devices in compliance."
"The most valuable feature of BMC TrueSight Operations Management is the dashboard presentation server."
"It has provided us with a single location to host all events to be viewed/monitored by our NOC. This has greatly helped them to streamline their processes."
"The executive dashboard we created gives a lot of visibility. There's no working on something for a little bit before someone knows."
"We did the setup for a new datacenter, and that was pretty straightforward."
"WAS GC monitoring enhanced our application performance and DB SQL performance."
"This application pulls data in 15 seconds. You can imagine the enormous amount of data which streams through."
"The triage can find the root cause for pent up issues."
"The deep-process instrumentation gave us an opportunity to understand application process performance in detail."
"If we see something that we need to change or monitor, we can get it scripted pretty quickly."
"In terms of stability, it has been stable so far."
"The pricing is relatively low compared to other solutions in this area. I'd go so far as to say it's even significantly less than the competition."
"The most valuable feature is the fault management monitoring."
"The dashboard and performance graphs should include a way to automatically schedule and export reports."
"One of the things that the TrueSight environment is missing is some of the HA abilities. The data collection server called the ISM doesn't really have the HA functionality or workload balancing. It was missing from the previous product as well. It's missing redundancy."
"The one piece that I would love to see is a general-purpose, configurable agent which would be a framework that you can deploy on anything, whether it be Java or anything else. It would allow you to easily deploy it on a platform that they support."
"The solution is overly complex."
"The graphs are extremely limited. We don't have a lot of dashboard options. To make reports and dashboards more useful, we usually need to integrate some dashboard solutions."
"BMC's solutions for cloud monitoring (monitoring of AWS and Azure resources) are very poor in stability and customization."
"I would like them to improve the deep-dive details, tracing, and data agents in this product. We have EUEM, an end-user experience monitoring appliance. This one's quicker than the current one, and reporting side and filtration side are very bad. There are many details we look at and explain what we receive information in the current one, but we cannot have historical data like we do with EUEM. We cannot have a powerful point to look for specific traffic from a specific application and a specific browser. We don't have it in the new one. The current BMC also needs to add the thing that control versions."
"This solution is lacking in application monitoring features. Technical support for this solution also needs improvement, particularly in product knowledge and response time."
"Technical support is slow to respond and also asks redundant questions."
"Java Console uses too much memory."
"They can make it easier to configure."
"The technical support is very poor."
"A CA APM agent takes a lot of memory. That is one disadvantage. If you configure CA APM correctly it will still consume around 15 to 20 percent of memory."
"Stability could actually be helped because it is a wrapper or an agent on our system. If we are having a bad day in production or if other resources are being utilized, then we will get get gaps in our monitoring system."
"There are several areas that could be improved in Broadcom DX Application Performance Management. One of the main areas is user experience monitoring, which is currently not available. Additionally, they need to develop a solution that is compatible with OpenShift 4, as their current solution only works when an agent is installed within the image, which is not possible in OpenShift 4 as it removes the agent."
"Our users lag how to identify the root cause with this solution. If they could come up with a more user-friendly version, that would be a good thing, since other vendors currently have better features and more user-friendly products than CA APM."
"The user interface needs improvement."
"My biggest complaint about ADA is that you have to rely on dedicated appliances."
