Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."With the new feature CA Team Center is much easier to view the information of my user experience, with this unified vision, it was even practical for lay users to use the tool"
"I have found Broadcom DX Application Performance Management to be scalable."
"The executive dashboard we created gives a lot of visibility. There's no working on something for a little bit before someone knows."
"It helps us prioritize application performance issues. It has assisted triage where we can drill down and see where exactly the problem lies."
"We use it to create dashboards and executive view dashboards, so our higher up managers can take a look and see where our application status stands."
"The most valuable feature of Broadcom DX Application Performance Management for me is transaction monitoring. The technical support provided for the solution is also an advantage."
"We are able to easily and quickly find some of the problems with the applications and coding, and some of the performance problems."
"CA APM is very scalable and used in a clustered environment because it supports more than its technical capacity."
"Very easy to implement."
"The technical support is good at resolving issues."
"The reporting feature is good for us."
"The most valuable feature is application performance monitoring."
"Real User Monitor has improved our productivity."
"The Real User Monitor, with its transaction and synthetic transaction monitoring, is the typical classic in APM cases when the customer would like to do transaction monitoring. Micro Focus scores better where the underlying infrastructure management is also covered by Micro Focus tools."
"The most useful feature of this solution is tracking. When the application's traffic has been monitored it is taken from that particular application and analyzed. It is then given a live session of that particular user. For example, if you are using your bank application to do some kind of transaction, everything that you do can be tracked by that application."
"Documentation needs to be centralized."
"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."
"In order for the tool to be successful, at least in our organization, it will need to have more self-serve features for implementation, instrumentation, and then modification of metric data from the APM."
"The APM SQL feature doesn't perform like we would like it to. I know that's a new feature with 10.5, so it may be one of those things that gets a little better, but it should run faster."
"The upcoming changes for the deployment process of the agent will help a lot, in that others have gotten to that point first."
"It doesn't have a proper database, and the configuration is very difficult."
"Java Console uses too much memory."
"The area of improvement is related to the areas of application onboarding and instrumentation, where the product has certain shortcomings."
"We would like to see support for non-Windows environments."
"This technology is considered to be older."
"Everybody is moving away from traffic and installing agents on the application to do the job, but Micro Focus is using traditional ways to collect the traffic. They should change their architecture completely."
"Real User Monitor needs to cover more protocols to provide more in-depth information. It could also be better at monitoring voice-related traffic. There is currently no visibility in that channel."
"Some issues with login errors."
"When we want to monitor our encrypted traffic, this product doesn't work because our cipher is not supported."
"One area to improve is the user interface, of course. The second one is their R&D has virtually stopped building a product roadmap."
