Containerization has accelerated testing cycles and consistently reduced time to market
Docker on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is a very mature product, and I don't think there is a lot of improvement that they need to do on their end. The Docker team is coming up with new features, and integration with the IDE, for example, would be amazing. Support on Windows is not so great from Docker, so that is something that they could examine. I chose nine out of ten for Docker on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS because I think they could improve a little more on optimization. It sometimes demands a lot of RAM and computing power, so that is one area that the Docker team could improve upon.

One area for improvement I see for Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) is that New Relic is a little more end-user friendly. Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) requires some amount of training. I think Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) can work in that direction, and now that it has already integrated AIOps, I believe they are taking a step in the right direction. There is nothing disadvantageous; there is always room for improvement, especially for first-time customers and users of Dynatrace (Private Offer Only). I have not purchased Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) myself because I used it as an employee of certain organizations. However, I know for sure that Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) is a little costlier compared to New Relic and AppDynamics. It might want to consider reducing its cost, pricing model, or come up with different pricing models to capture untapped markets globally. A smaller organization might not be able to afford a license. The area that is still lacking involves expanding Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) network and working to replace AppDynamics and New Relic, even if it takes a toll on pricing. Once Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) covers the entire market globally and is in every organization with no other tools competing, they can raise their price later alongside all new features being added. I think a pricing strategy is essential for improvement.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"Ease of use from the developer's point of view is the best feature."
"Docker on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS positively impacts my organization because we have sped up our development very quickly, and our team has grown quickly, not only because of Docker but also due to Docker."
"Fast deployment is the main benefit."
"Docker on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS makes both managing and deploying that service easier for me."
"Scalability is genuinely exceptional, as a customer who initially used only 20 or 30 hosts eventually expanded to more than 500 hosts, and the expansion was easier than with other local solutions or with DataDog and New Relic."
"Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) has aided in optimizing application performance across our environments, significantly improving the fact that we have given access to the DevOps team to optimize code, review where errors are, and understand the experience that users are having when accessing our mobile application, which has helped the team optimize how the application loads, rectify errors, and subsequently deliver a seamless experience for our customers."
"Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) has aided in optimizing application performance across my environments by giving root cause analysis through Davis AI."
"The graphical dashboard is amazing, and we can see how the connections are built with traces displayed."
"Dynatrace saves both time and money."
"Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) is the greatest of all time APM tool; everything you can get is very easy to understand, and it has its own customer care support where I can reach out and get tutorials."
 

Cons

"Support on Windows is not so great from Docker, so that is something that they could examine."
"I have not seen a return on investment that I can quantify, and I do not have specific metrics to share regarding fewer employees needed, money saved, or time saved."
"Docker on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is stable enough, but again, it is very old."
"Maybe the daemons need to be improved, as they consume a lot of resources for building and running images."
"I could identify a disadvantage of Dynatrace regarding costing, as it is very expensive."
"Additionally, Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) continues to force customers to pay more at renewal."
"I do not find Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) cost-effective overall."
"I see room for improvement for Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) because it is purely focused on an APM tool."
"Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) is a little costlier compared to New Relic and AppDynamics. It might want to consider reducing its cost, pricing model, or come up with different pricing models to capture untapped markets globally."
"One thing I would improve in Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) is definitely the licensing model, as it is expensive."
