Director of Technical Part at NOS SGPS
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.

Easy to deploy, stable, and scalable
I use JenniferSoft to monitor the performance and transaction traces of our applications The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability to divide the authorization of users because a lot of the people in our organization have different authorizations. The dashboard is a valuable…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is great product with lots of features that help minimize the time taken to troubleshoot issues and root cause analysis to avoid loss of business."
"The graphic display that shows the variables in the time is very intuitive and almost everyone is able to obtain useful information."
"The mean time to resolve has reduced dramatically since we started using CA APM Introscope."
"I like APM because it is a complete solution that helps the production environment to identify the root cause of problems before affecting the application or services."
"The product helps us to identify code problems very quickly and can also help us identify other problems with the application as it's running, which is significant for us because application failures can impact revenue and customer satisfaction."
"It is the very best solution and will surely enhance anyone’s application performance and resource utilization."
"Our organization has over 21,000 agents running, and being able to monitor all those agents at the same time, with the ability to be alerted when thresholds are exceeded, means we can know when we are having problems without having dedicated people to watch monitoring screens all the time."
"The alerting part – if the system goes down we get an immediate notification that a resource has gone down, so it reduces the impact on the business."
"The dashboard is a valuable feature."
 

Cons

"The cost of licensing of the product could be better."
"Broadcom DX Application Performance Management could improve its supportability to the current technologies and the end-to-end correlation feature should be done automatically without custom configurations. Additionally, there should not be any configuration changes to the client-side when deploying the solution."
"The CEM (Customer Experience Management) product is still immature and do have hiccups."
"It needs better documentation to help make the implementation easier."
"Cost- its very expensive and it's hard to spend that amount of money for CPU's core based licensing by small business organizations."
"As such, no improvement after using CA APM."
"Its profiling. The uniqueness instead of me looking at sampling data, I need to know the m-1 event that actually triggered my scenario where that m event caused a catastrophic event, like a ripple effect; I need to know that m-1. What triggered my major event means I need to understand the event that triggered it and before the cause of that event itself."
"The CA APM Command Center is very good, on paper, but in practice does not work in the best way, this promises to be an indispensable feature of the product, but has much to evolve."
"The solution is pricy and has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Depends on the size of the product you need."
"Broadcom is a better and cheaper option from the financial perspective. It also depends on the DLP plug."
"It is definitely expensive for what we get, but there isn't an alternate option at the moment."
"The licensing costs are expensive."
"Dynatrace is the most expensive of these tools followed by AppDynamics which is "medium-expensive." CA APM is a bit lower in price than either Dynatrace or AppDynanics... In my opinion, if you can afford it, go for AppDynamics instead of CA APM."
"All discounts are case by case to accommodate the client's budgets."
"Pricing and licensing are not issues."
