Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."It is very helpful to be able to apply rule-based routing to alerts."
"The solution has a very good business event manager tool."
"Intelligent solution with a proactive monitoring feature and consolidated dashboard that's stable and easy to scale."
"BMC TrueSight Operations Management is easily scalable."
"The noise reduction for ticketing works much better than we have seen in a lot of other companies."
"The most valuable features of BMC TrueSight Operations Management are the blackouts and event management."
"The Event Management is outstanding; still is the most interesting part of the product."
"TSOM's ability to consolidate alerts into a single location and provide filtering of alerts is great."
"Support was very quick to help us identify a problem and fix it immediately"
"Finds issues that previously occupied people for months."
"It's very easy to reach the root cause of the problems in the applications, due do the analysis with Dynatrace. The timeframe to update and fix the applications has been reduced a lot compared to what we had before Dynatrace."
"The solution is multi-tenant and based in Big data technology."
"We got firsthand RCA as soon as we finished implementation."
"Integration with other tools in company using SNMP traps."
"It is our main SaaS monitoring and alerting solution, and it allows us to identify many problems that we would miss if we did not have a comprehensive monitoring solution."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"This solution allows me to have true visibility for any metrics when it comes to my cloud, and private."
"The features I find most valuable is the querying and alerting capabilities."
"People are very pleased with the implementation."
"For us, the ease of deployment in combination with TMZ was the most important part because we don't have to manually deploy a complex monitoring solution. We can more or less do that with the click of a button, and we are not dependent on the developers to provide us with all the necessary features and functions to make that work. We can just deploy it on a workload cluster and monitor at least a good part of the workload. If we want to go into detail, we clearly need to make changes, but for a good part of application monitoring, it gives us good insights."
"Tanzu itself, integrated with multiple solutions, bestows support and security upon a container platform, especially when it comes to managing open-source container platforms such as Kubernetes."
"The solution is great for virtualization and preparing the infrastructure in Tanzu to test products. It's very fast and has good visibility."
"VMware comes with a support team, and if you have trouble, you can easily create a ticket, and VMware will help you. Therefore, the best aspect is the support."
"The most valuable aspects of the solution are its ease of use and its ease of implementation."
"The solution is a little obsolete."
"The UI for the end users could be improved and more flexible than it is now."
"Deployment requires lots of resources (servers). It has too many consoles."
"I think the ease of deployment needs to be looked at. It would be great if the deployment was faster and easier."
"I definitely would like to see more improvement in the self-diagnostics. I need to know when anything is not working or collecting, long before our customer finds it."
"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."
"More modules for less popular applications and better documentation."
"I would really like to see out-of-the-box support for monitoring uninterruptible power supplies."
"They need to develop how to capture the JDBC and MBeans metrics."
"We do not have any web monitoring with Dynatrace."
"We'd like it to be more user-friendly, which, in our case, might be a big ask as we have a fairly complex environment."
"Dashboards and monitoring capabilities can be improved for monitoring applications in Azure. In Azure, it would be cool to be able to monitor network consumption as well as flow communication."
"They need better infrastructure monitoring. New Relic is beating them for infrastructure monitoring."
"I would like to have something more along the lines of the old DC RUM, because we have lot of clients with old technologies, legacy technology, and we really want to integrate it with Dynatrace so that they can use just one single product. So, it needs better integration with legacy products."
"Ease of use could be improved because it can be hard to determine how you made it to the screen you are on and how to get back to it later."
"The documentation of Dynatrace needs to be improved. There needs to be a more detailed description and additional examples for background understanding for beginners trying to use it."
"They could make it more easy to plug-in data so that a nontechnical person will be able to use it, like accountants or finance people. That way they don't have to ask us."
"I would like to see integration with Kubernetes cluster and APIs so that you can manage the entire stack."
"The main problem I have is that the license cost is very high."
"Its billing model is consumption-based. I understand the consumption-based model, but it is not necessarily easy to estimate and guess how many points or how much we are going to consume on a specific application up until we get to that point. So, for us, it would be helpful to have more insights or predictability into what we can expect from a cost perspective if we are starting to use specific features. This can potentially also drive our consumption a bit more."
"The implementation is a long process that should be improved."
"The initial setup should be easier and more seamless."
"The documentation and integration with Kubernetes could be improved."
"In the new version, I would love to see more prediction capabilities. It would be great if one could see the alerts get a little more enriched with information and become more human-friendly instead of the technical stuff that they put in there. I think those would be really awesome outcomes to get."
