We performed a comparison between Broadcom DX Application Performance Management and Sumo Logic Observability 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."The triage can find the root cause for pent up issues."
"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."
"Command center is a new feature that provides agent maintenance and support without involving the application team. It saves lots of time for APM team."
"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."
"It's a very stable product."
"It is very useful and helpful with the analysis of historical performance data."
"The ability to accomplish the identification of the root cause of problems with applications in drill-down level by integrating the suite with tools for managing and monitoring."
"This application pulls data in 15 seconds. You can imagine the enormous amount of data which streams through."
"Alerting and consistency are key. We have different tiers with log collectors, and continuous querying provides near-real-time updates. It's almost like instantly when something happens, like pending transactions or error fees. This helps reduce incident resolution time compared to waiting for thresholds on other platforms. We can continue logging in with them seamlessly and quickly get into action."
"Sumo Logic Observability presents a range of valuable features, including well-crafted dashboards and a diverse selection of helpful apps. However, personally, I don't hold a favorable opinion of the solution. While I don't struggle with writing queries, my main difficulty lies in recruiting competent individuals and ensuring their proficiency in utilizing the solution. This often leads to additional challenges and complexities. From my perspective, when compared to Microsoft Sentinel or even Splunk, Sumo Logic Observability has a steeper learning curve. One contributing factor to this disparity is the solution's long existence in the market compared to Synlogic. Nevertheless, I acknowledge that there are capable and knowledgeable professionals employed at Sumo Logic Observability. The effectiveness of the solution largely depends on how it is integrated into your internal operations and environment. Its utility and benefits can vary significantly. It is worth noting that organizations like the NSA and, I believe, the CIA used it in the past, primarily for rapidly searching and analyzing large volumes of data. To leverage its capabilities effectively, you must determine how to tailor it to your specific needs."
"The solution allows multiple groups to converge on a unified platform, allowing for different utilization by various teams."
"I have not seen any stability issues in the product."
"The product is easy to learn."
"You can sell licenses and install the full tool on service, you can show customers how to install, but how to use it and solve issues cannot be done without the experience."
"There is no auto flow diagram, and the alert mechanism is not as good when compared to other tools."
"We enountered stability issues. They were mitigated by performance tuning within infrastructure."
"Needs the ability to dynamically create dashboards. Right now, we do custom dashboards. Everything is created manually."
"System incident analysis and performance monitoring need improvement."
"The interface is getting a little old."
"A CA APM agent takes a lot of memory. That is one disadvantage. If you configure CA APM correctly it will still consume around 15 to 20 percent of memory."
"The stability could be more reliable."
"Fine-grained data can be quite frustrating to work with and should be made easier."
"Documentation could be better. While it's generally good, sometimes finding what you need requires extensive searching. It's not always clear where to look for specific things."
"Implementing a more streamlined enrichment process, and conceptualizing the observability data collection as an ETL pipeline would be helpful."
"SearchUI.exe is a bit clunky in the product, making it an area where the product needs improvements."
