Devo's cloud-based structure ensures seamless scalability, supporting diverse roles and extensive deployments for effective data handling and monitoring.
Sentiment score
7.2
Dynatrace is highly scalable, handling large-scale environments efficiently with minimal overhead, though scaling costs can be a concern.
If it's an enterprise, increasing the number of instances doesn’t pose problems.

Sentiment score
7.5
Dynatrace is highly stable, with users praising its reliability, quick support for issues, and proactive development efforts.

Room For Improvement

Devo faces performance, customization, integration, and pricing challenges, needing improvements in AI, reporting, and dashboard capabilities.
Dynatrace users seek improved .NET support, customization, performance, security, integrations, support, pricing clarity, and interface simplification.
Integrations with other sandboxes could be improved to better interpret data using AI and machine learning models.
The definition of enterprise is loosely used, however, from a holistic security perspective, including infrastructure, network, ports, software, applications, transactions, and databases, there are areas lacking, especially in network monitoring tools.
They have been the pioneers from inception, and they remain at the top of the Gartner chart.
I'm specifically looking at AIOps and how we can monitor AIOps-related things, considering we have LLMs and all that stuff.
 

Setup Cost

Devo offers competitive pricing with flexible licensing, though metadata costs and subscription models may affect overall expenses.
Dynatrace offers advanced monitoring but can be costly due to a complex pricing model and potential scaling expenses.
Dynatrace is known to be costly, which delayed its integration into our system.
If I would ask you to rate price from 1 to 10, where 1 is cheap and 10 is expensive, how many points would you give to it?
 

Valuable Features

Devo's Activeboards offer intuitive, fast data visualization with high-speed queries, real-time analytics, and seamless integration for effective insights.
Dynatrace excels in transaction tracing, AI analysis, and comprehensive visibility, enhancing operational efficiency with real-time insights and easy deployment.
When they see a spike in a line chart for a failed login, which could be a true or false attempt, they can click that spike, and a table widget on the same active board instantly populates with raw logs of data for those specific failed logins.
The integration with Power BI for generating detailed reports is a standout feature.
Dynatrace's AI-driven Davis engine absolutely helps identify performance issues by showing root cause analysis for us up to 200%; whatever is integrated, if it is visible, it can stitch and show.
I find the classic service analysis, service analysis, distribution tracing, and the technology stack that it shows most valuable about Dynatrace, along with the Scape View.

Featured Reviews

Michael Wenn - PeerSpot reviewer
Has cloud-first architecture with SIEM technology to run security operations
When it comes to scale, they're architected quite well. They handle some of the biggest customers globally, with significant throughput on their platform, managing thousands of customers. One of the most impressive aspects of Devo is its customer community. A large majority, over 80 percent of their customers, actively participate on a Devo-specific community page. They're contributing to product development and support, events, and user group information, helping each other out. This high level of engagement is rare and demonstrates both the loyalty of their customer base and the quality of their product. They offer a range of small, medium, and large options to cater to everyone. I sold Devo products while working with them, focusing on enterprise solutions. However, as a small reseller, my customers were typically smaller businesses. I rate the solution's scalability a nine out of ten.
Anand_Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides a comprehensive view by integrating with other monitoring systems
There may be an issue since there are many tools like Splunk involved in network monitoring. From an IP perspective, Dynatrace is performing well. If they want to develop in network monitoring, they can, as it's part of their product line. It's not rocketry, so they can accomplish it. If I, as an SI, look at it from an enterprise perspective, considering the cost from the client, I prefer not to go with multiple systems, as they don't provide a complete 360-degree view. They need to improve on claims about being an enterprise system. The definition of enterprise is loosely used, however, from a holistic security perspective, including infrastructure, network, ports, software, applications, transactions, and databases, there are areas lacking, especially in network monitoring tools.
