Performance Engineer at Kohl's
Improves our application at the code level because of its different performance metrics
They should provide all the information of the NetDiagnostics tool details on the Internet. Or, it will be good if they could upload the configuration and monitoring feature detail videos on YouTube . REST API should be supported from the UI. As of now, it is supported from the CLI . They can improve on providing "help and navigation" for each feature available in the UI. In next release, I would like to see the application level monitor supported in some way.

Unified dashboards have provided end-to-end visibility and now streamline API latency troubleshooting
I think Dynatrace can be improved in dashboard creation, as this is the face of a product. Although Dynatrace may have many things, new users typically do not know the whole power of the product. To onboard new people, it would be beneficial to provide template dashboards or suggested dashboards. Organizations working with microservice architecture will follow some templates, so suggesting simple, hand-picked features that are really helpful could make a difference. Quick configurable and customizable templates would be very useful. Whenever they come into the product, they can use this template and feel that their product is applied to it. Immediately, they will think everything is online and can improve easily. This base can be provided in template form. Since Dynatrace has a lot of features now, the AI integration makes it simple, but the product itself is very huge. To understand and utilize it, maybe it would be good to index the essential features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Application end-to-end monitoring: This is one of the good features available in the tool, as it includes error detection, capturing exception, method calling tree, transaction flow map, etc."
"Its end-to-end dashboard provides information on all the integration callouts happening on the server side."
"We now know when the application is down, as opposed to students opening tickets and letting us know, so it's more proactive."
"Once we figured out there is a monitoring system that can show us code level details, nothing came closer."
"Dynatrace has reduced our total headcount in operations and the mean time to detect and resolve problems, and as a result those challenging offline times are much shorter, if not non-existent, because of this solution."
"Synthetic Web Monitoring allows us to automatically react to any issues regarding site reliability."
"The product installs quickly and immediately. It begins to learn the architecture of the systems which need to be monitored. It then learns what “normal” looks like, so there really is no need for manual configuration."
"Reduced MTTR, thanks to smart problem detection and automated root cause analysis."
"It has given us a one stop solution for projects and applications independent of the application type and OS."
"Easy installation Fast support Extensive documentation Quick distribution of new features Active community Market leading product"
 

Cons

"They can improve on providing "help and navigation" for each feature available in the UI."
"The thread traceability is something that needs improvement."
"They could facilitate the installation of the agent on server applications for other languages, such as C++."
"We do not have any web monitoring with Dynatrace, so this is something we are looking at."
"The tool needs work on the performance monitoring part, as it is not providing specific details due to some issues in agent connectivity."
"We have a very stringent budget for an infrastructure solution. Maybe if they provided modules, a simple module with fewer features and a lower price, that would be very good."
"I'd like to see more agents ready to be deployed. I know that it's possible to develop integration with Dynatrace API, but in day-to-day operations it's hard to do that kind of customization. So if they had more agents for more platforms and more applications, I think it would be better."
"When compared with other tools, the experience needs improvement. I would like them to build out the interactions and make them friendlier."
"I would love to see Dynatrace get more involved in the security realm."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We asked for a three-year license, and the price was quite good."
"The product is really fast to implement and gives customers instant value. This is important, because it reduces costs on the implementation."
"Just go with Dynatrace. Just start with Dynatrace. Do not go into AppMon. Start with Dynatrace, because AppMon is going to give you so much extra stuff that 99% of your user base will not need it, including yourself."
"The pricing and licensing are very expensive."
"The price range is quite high."
"Pricing can be high, especially for Portuguese standards. But as one says, you get what you pay for."
"The limitations I see are more to do - and maybe it's because of the nature of the job I have - but they have to do with pricing. It's a little bit pricey. It's a very good tool. It's worth the price, to a certain degree. But it's hard to justify when it's that costly."
"Setup cost is very low considering that it is an almost totally, automatic process."
