"The solution is amazing, it does well when you need to use it."
"It is useful for analytics, web performance, end-to-end coverage of a user experience, and database analytics. It is absolutely a monitoring tool that is worth having. The visibility that it provides is a unique feature of this product."
"We like the on-premises platform and the horizontal scalability."
"The most useful features are cloud monitoring, application monitoring, and alert notifications."
"Once you are trained on the solution, it's easy to navigate. It's got very good documentation and training offerings."
"Dynatrace helped us with root cause analysis of poor performing components of our applications."
"A feature that's one of the highlights of Dynatrace is the AI. The second most valuable feature is OneAgent. Between infrastructures, applications, operating systems, you can deploy with just a single agent and can practically install and forget about it."
"Having OneAgent is the most valuable feature of Dyantrace, as well as the monitoring."
"Google's technical support is very good."
"I like the monitoring feature."
"Provides visibility into the performance uptime."
"I would like a testing module focused on quality gates."
"Its pricing could be better. Dynatrace has an option to monitor the end users to see what they are doing, but it required a separate license and had an additional cost. It was coming out to be expensive, because of which we didn't use the feature."
"The usability is worse than it used to be."
"It would help if Dynatrace allowed more features that work with metrics like Grafana or New Relic."
"An area for improvement would be security. In the next release, I'd like to see more network-centric capabilities - Dynatrace is good at the network level, but I have to leverage other network solutions and integrate with them, but a holistic approach including the network as a one-stop-shop would be great."
"The licensing part is complicated or not transparent. It is very difficult to assess the number of licenses for a prospect. You have to do a PoC, and calculating the number of licenses for two years or three years is sometimes very difficult. It also depends on each case. There are multiple types of licenses. Sometimes, you need only one of them, and sometimes, you need all of them. This is an area for improvement."
"The solution could improve by allowing more dashboards customization. This would allow us to monitor the metric better."
"Pretty much every month there are new features. However, its information on those new features is scarce."
"It could be more stable."
"While we are satisfied with the overall performance, in certain cases we must add additional metrics and additional tools like Grafana and Dynatrace."
"Lacking sufficient operations documentation."
