Full-stack monitoring has improved root cause analysis but pricing and usability still need work
There are several disadvantages with Dynatrace (Private Offer Only). First, the development team prefers to have an X-View, but Dynatrace (Private Offer Only), DataDog, and New Relic did not provide an X-View of the transaction. Second, some DataDog users complained about Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) requiring more clicks to figure out problems. DataDog attempts to display major issues on one screen without forcing users to click more. Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) is more geared toward true engineers, forcing users to click more options or buttons. Third, pricing is a significant issue, particularly in Korea. When I was operating as a distributor, Korea did not have a country manager or country director for an extended period. Although there was an engineer and an account executive, there was no country manager equivalent to DataDog or New Relic. When DataDog provided strategic pricing, Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) was unable to offer comparable options. Additionally, Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) continues to force customers to pay more at renewal. While New Relic and DataDog also have price increases during renewal, they typically waive these increases. However, Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) consistently requests customers to accept the uplifting. This pricing approach is the major reason why we lost customers in Korea.

Preconfigured containers have cut licensing costs and now save our team time with faster booting
ECS-Optimized Windows can improve by giving us new generation instances rather than the old generation's AMD chips or other older technology. It should use the new generation instances, and it should also modernize the storage and the file systems that it is using because those are very old and sometimes problematic. It should also improve or add advanced configurations to the things that we are doing so it can help us and give us more efficiency and productivity in our team. It should give us good analysis, particularly more detailed analysis, with the AWS tools because it is operated by AWS. It is cloud-based, and we are getting it from AWS, so they should also integrate it with AWS better.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Dynatrace saves both time and money."
"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."
"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."
"ECS-Optimized Windows has positively impacted my organization because I have been using it for proof of concepts and it increases the speed of running them because I do not have to worry about creating my own image."
"After deploying our Windows workloads using ECS-Optimized Windows on AWS, we saw improved reliability and measurable operational efficiencies."
"Our teams can scale at least 40% faster than before, accounting for waiting for it to boot and load everything."
 

Cons

"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."
"One thing I would improve in Dynatrace (Private Offer Only) is definitely the licensing model, as it is expensive."
"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."
"ECS-Optimized Windows can improve by giving us new generation instances rather than the old generation's AMD chips or other older technology."
"Improvements for ECS-Optimized Windows could include faster Windows patch cycles, a lighter AMI footprint for quicker boot times, better visibility into container-level performance metrics, and improved cost optimization guidance."
"One problem with ECS-Optimized Windows is that the image size is quite large."
