Dashboards facilitate prompt alerts but discovery feature needs enhancement
I would recommend Broadcom DX Application Performance Management if a customer doesn't have any existing performance solution. However, ten years ago, the solution was better, and now there are many competitive options. My overall rating would be between six and seven. The product rating I would give is 6.5 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Standard available reports provide us with an automatic insight into the top ten situations to watch, and it would have been extremely difficult to program such a report ourselves, and to my knowledge no other competitor can match this functionality."
"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."
"It helps the developers with performance testing, production pro-active monitoring and troubleshooting."
"The way these tools show the information is very useful. this is a tool that records information from Java and .NET applications, and obtain information about how many times an method has been call in a period of time (usually 30 sec), how many times respond in this span of time or is delayed or stall."
"CA APM not only does root cause analysis, but it is smart enough to proactively identify an issue that could happen and advise me to do something to prevent it."
"We make custom dashboards for our development areas so they can understand how busy traffic affects their application with traffic. They can see how traffic directly affects their application in positive or negative ways."
"The application is very stable and extremely useful."
"It is very useful and helpful with the analysis of historical performance data."
"We can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution."
"INETCO offers monitoring that helps the customer to have a quick way to detect their problems."
"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
 

Cons

"I give it an eight out of 10 overall because I don't see custom dashboards. Plus, some of the stat analysis features that were explained are not that easy to use."
"Initial setup is easy, but after that it needs a very complex tuning that is easier in other tools."
"The scalability is very poor; when you expand your application, you have to do it manually on the deployment."
"One of the areas that I think needs improvement is the central management of the agents."
"User interface - CA is moving towards HTML5, but still a lot is Java, old fashioned, non-customizable and not user friendly. It’s look and feel is still too technical."
"Initial setup was very hard due to lack of proper phrasing and instructions in manuals."
"With CA APM, you can’t scale the ‘webview’ (Team Center), the feature that provides you with the views/dashboards."
"The Transaction Tracing feature can definitely be improved."
"It would help to have historical information."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Setup costs are quite competitive relative to other solutions, and simpler."
"Pricing and licensing are not issues."
"The license for Broadcom DX Application Performance Management is annual. The licensing model could improve because there is not any limit to deploying the agent, there should be some limits on it."
"Althougth it is a bit expensive, it is really worth it"
"All discounts are case by case to accommodate the client's budgets."
"The pricing structure should be based on memory or CPU usage rather than the number of agents, as it makes the solution more expensive for us."
"Broadcom is a better and cheaper option from the financial perspective. It also depends on the DLP plug."
"Depends on the size of the product you need."
"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
