We performed a comparison between Broadcom DX Application Performance Management and eG Enterprise based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."JVM memory monitoring and connection pool monitoring are valuable features."
"I like that it gives you a wide range of data where you can see the application outage response from concurrent locations and the number of stalled jobs."
"We are using the on-premise and cloud versions of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management."
"An application is quite complicated in the environment of a software reliability engineer, because our applications are like a black box. Thanks to CA APM we are able to transform this black box to a gray box by using the transaction trace functionality services. For me it's the most valuable service of the solution."
"The configuration and the manager tool are good features."
"WAS GC monitoring enhanced our application performance and DB SQL performance."
"The CA tools allow to me to get into detailed transactions for custom ranking, and be able to make predictions. It also gathers data. Some other tools may be good at one area, but not good overall, including the mainframe."
"We receive good transactions from it with good graphs, as well, documenting the activities of total visitors on the site. We can pull the reports and provide them to the client, as required."
"User session details"
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities."
"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"Upgradability to it is a project instead of a patch. If it was actually an automated process to where it just fed updates to our product that would be great. Now, we have to spin up an effort to actually upgrade the solution."
"Support could be much better."
"One of the challenges is agent releases. So as we employ agents, they are done relatively manually. A little bit of automating of agent release would be helpful."
"Needs the ability to dynamically create dashboards. Right now, we do custom dashboards. Everything is created manually."
"They can make it easier to configure."
"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."
"We enountered stability issues. They were mitigated by performance tuning within infrastructure."
"The interface is getting a little old."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky."
"The integration must be improved."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
