Has enabled us to detect issues instantly through alerts and monitor every service from a single dashboard
Splunk requires significantly more improvements compared to Splunk AppDynamics, specifically regarding the licensing aspect. Splunk renews licenses every six months, which is inconvenient. It would be better to have a one-year license to avoid needing to update keys constantly, which can only occur on weekends, making it a burdensome task. Although Splunk is better for certain use cases, Splunk AppDynamics is broader in functionality. Specifically, I want enhancements related to creating dashboards not only for logs or minor services but also for configuration levels, allowing us to check configurations immediately without manually opening the entire code when exceptions arise—a feature I wish to see improved in Splunk, although it may not be necessary for Splunk AppDynamics.

"It's pretty stable."
"Autodiscovery of application topology, based on real user traffic."
"There are many features that are very valuable to us, but the ability to monitor the status of the users' experience in real-time is one of them."

Cons

"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"The GUI can be overwhelming at first to a novice Dev or Ops support person, and the possible root causes of an issue do not bubble up to the first screen you see."
"I am not very impressed with support. The service could be better."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"I could not find a user-friendly interface for querying, and analytics sometimes gives the wrong results...I feel that analytics could have been better in searching and running the analytical queries."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"AppDynamics is an expensive solution."
"We have purchased a few licenses for AppDynamics Database Monitoring and the price is high."
"You are required to purchase licenses whether you use it or not. It is not pay-as-you-use."
"If one is expensive and ten is low price, I rate the product price as seven out of ten."
"As compared to other applications, its price is moderate. Its price is neither very high nor very low."
"The way it is structured in terms of price could be better. You pay for individual modules and that adds on to the cost, which detracts you from implementing those modules and slows you down."
"The solution has a high cost."
