Dynamic mapping enhances workflows that are user-friendly
One aspect that requires improvement is the agent. Without an agent, gathering sufficient information on applications is challenging. Additionally, the agent sometimes creates performance issues in production environments. If AppDynamics could develop a means to monitor without an agent, it could significantly improve application performance and reduce potential problems. Moving to an agentless solution, like what some competitors are doing, would be beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The machine learning feature is valuable."
"We can view the server activities, including issues in the process, with a single click."
"The real user monitoring helps us evaluate our customers' real experiences, which is valuable as an eCommerce company."
"It is a wonderful monitoring tool that manages various aspects such as system resources (CPU, RAM), mobile performance, and infrastructure monitoring."
"The solution helps us provide a better user experience to our customers."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I don't see any problems in the solution...The solution's technical support was good."
"In my experience, it's easy to use. There's nothing complex to learn or fear. You can quickly adapt to it without the need for extensive training."
"The features related to the application performance in AppDynamics Database Monitoring are the most valuable."
"The proactive monitoring from AppDynamics definitely helps."
 

Cons

"They can improve the functionality that provides some numbers related to the behavior of the metrics."
"The solution's pricing could be improved and made more competitive."
"It could do with more than one data centre/multiple AWS accounts in a pane of glass. Also, improved scalability to large environments would be helpful."
"They do not have robust documentation."
"There needs to be an option to capture all the sessions for all the users, not just samplings."
"The dashboard can be better. Also, the automated reports could be improved."
"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."
"I would like the ability to choose from some pre-defined dashboards and reports because as it is now, you have to define them separately for each implementation."
"The end-user experience is not really good because we can't catch all of the transactions. We only can catch the full stack of flow transactions, but I think that this is caused by the technology they use. If they will catch every transaction, it will cause a very big load on the performance of applications. The monitoring of all transactions needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is expensive. However, our time to recover has been reduced, and this product has helped recuperate costs and provided us with ROI."
"The licensing scheme is very complex. They need to make it easier."
"There is a license for the solution and we paid approximately $2,000. There is also an additional cost above the standard license which cost us approximately $3,000."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"We have two different licensing models for this solution. One of them is the agent based model, which requires payment per agent. The other is an infrastructure based model, where the price is based on the CPU core. For the infrastructure model wholesale level pricing applies. All of the up to date licensing prices for this product are available on the manufacturers website."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring requires a license for database monitoring and other features, while Dynatrace provides monitoring and other features out of the box without additional costs. Sometimes this makes it more challenging to pitch AppDynamics Database Monitoring to customers, especially because you need to buy a separate license. As an implementer, I have yet to learn about the pricing for AppDynamics Database Monitoring. Pricing is taken care of by the sales team."
"Our purchasing experience through the AWS Marketplace has been pretty painless."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and it is expensive. The licensing model needs to improve."
