Setup Cost

Devo offers competitive, simple data ingestion-based pricing with extensive features and flexibility, despite some limitations in tier options.
Dynatrace pricing is costly due to complex licensing, though its features and flexible pricing can justify the expense.
The pricing could be simpler, and while the initial setup cost for a new instance is a bit expensive, the licensing can currently be user-based or driven by log volume, which is better if there is expansion of our user base.
Principal Technology Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The pricing of the product is reasonable if we compare it with other Gartner leading products like Splunk, LogRhythm, Microsoft Sentinel, Google SecOps.
Team Lead Soc at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Your initial investment in licensing costs pales in comparison to the question of why you would charge a license fee and usage for a tool if you are going to be three times higher in processing the data you are sending via the agents.

Dynatrace is known to be costly, which delayed its integration into our system.

Featured Reviews

Usama Khan - PeerSpot reviewer
Team Lead Soc at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Advanced threat hunting has improved SOC visibility and now supports faster incident response
Devo can improve in how its connectors enhance integration with third-party tools. Devo's architecture works by having you deploy a relay server in the data center of the client side and Devo SIEM is basically on the AWS cloud. There are specific ports which are enabled on the relay server, which are 514 and 13000, 13151, 152. However, when we talk about databases and custom integrations, there are not default ports in the relay server. No default ports are defined. For JDBC drivers, the port number is 1433, but it is not in the relay server. You have to add it manually. For Oracle RDBMS, the port is 1521, and it is also not there by default. I would appreciate more third-party integrations including Fortinet and others. Machine learning models can also be improved. Playbooks in the SOAR can also be improved. Regarding playbooks for automation, we utilize playbooks for automation in SOAR for automated IOC blocking on a firewall, on a web application firewall, on DNS security, etc. The only option for us to run the playbook is to schedule the job for it. However, if I want to manually run the playbook, there is no option for doing so. This needs improvement.
Vinothkumar Sugumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Software Engineer at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
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.
