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.
Gyanesh Rahatekar - PeerSpot reviewer
Application performance management and error resolution improved with data-driven insights
Dynatrace has multiple functions compared to Splunk AppDynamics, so Splunk AppDynamics should add those functions, which are not available as of now. Dynatrace has a universal agent that collects all information related to their CI, and if one CI has multiple languages, then there is no need to instrument multiple agents. However, Splunk AppDynamics requires multiple agents; if I have one server with multiple applications in different languages, then I need to instrument different agents for each application. Splunk AppDynamics should work with Dynatrace with one single universal agent that works with all application languages, eliminating the need for multiple implementations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its end-to-end dashboard provides information on all the integration callouts happening on the server side."
"Database scaling or migration projects play a supportive role throughout the development, monitoring, and troubleshooting phases."
"For anybody who is looking into enhancing or improving their application code quality, I would definitely recommend this solution."
"After a major incident, root cause analysis is conducted and, most of the time, we understand what caused the incident and how it can be prevented from happening again."
"After we implemented this solution, we can easily determine the root cause of issues."
"The dashboards are very well-defined."
"The product has the ability to drill down to the errors whenever we have issues."
"It gives me the ability to trace logs between transactions, for example, a DB transaction or JVM transaction from one hub to the other. I can easily find out where the problem is or where the bottleneck of the issues lies."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I don't see any problems in the solution...The solution's technical support was good."
 

Cons

"They can improve on providing "help and navigation" for each feature available in the UI."
"We would like to be able to easily use this solution to monitor our Java script based browsers, which are currently blocked by the security settings."
"The infrastructure is not as good as other solutions."
"The product’s dashboard could be more easy to implement."
"One aspect that requires improvement is the agent. Without an agent, gathering sufficient information on applications is challenging."
"In terms of improvements we would like to see, we want to understand what the battery consumption metrics are whenever a user is viewing. It would be really helpful for us if we could get those details levels."
"The integration part in AppDynamics with other systems is an area with a little difficulty, especially when it comes to the configuration area. The integration of AppDynamics with other products takes a lot of time."
"The discovery is acceptable, however, users need to configure many things if they want good discovery."
"They are using Flash for their website, which is very slow. We had hoped the website would be much faster to use, and that is definitely what we want to see."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We are looking forward to purchasing the solution on the AWS Marketplace."
"I was not involved with the procurement of AppDynamic, but I believe it's expensive."
"Pricing is based on the size of the deployment."
"There is no standard license instead, the license is adapted to the organization's requirements."
"It is a more expensive APM among the competitors, which is fine because it also does a lot more on the auto-detection and the AI side... It is not a cheap product. None of them are. The price is fair, but I could use it on more projects if they had a lower price."
"AppDynamics is more expensive than competitors."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"AppDynamics offers a yearly basis license."
