Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
Using Dynatrace directly improved application uptime and reduced customer impacting incidents.
ROI is hard to specify; however, incidents like impending ransomware attacks highlight its value, though those are exceptional events.
Save money by identifying problems, thereby reducing monetary losses on their application side.
We are seeing a return on investment from using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform because we are getting less production issues by thirty percent, as I mentioned earlier, making it a great investment.
We do not need to look at all the day's metrics on Grafana dashboards; we run our chaos experiments in a production environment to see how reliable our product or service is.
If we needed ten people to do tests once upon a time, now, using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, we can do it with a fifty percent reduction in employees.
They have a good reputation, and the support is commendable.
The technical support from Dynatrace is excellent.
Whenever we faced any issues, we could get timely resolution from their support.
When I have questions or run into issues with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, their support team is helpful and responsive.
The customer support for Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is good overall.
If it's an enterprise, increasing the number of instances doesn’t pose problems.
It is a powerful tool and helped us to reduce customer downtime and increase work efficiency.
The scalability of Dynatrace is very significant, especially considering the current improvements in their features.
Gremlin Reliability Management Platform scales smoothly for running more chaos experiments, adding more services, or supporting a larger team.
More than scalability, I thought about availability because it is a really important thing of the architecture tools.
The scalability of Gremlin Reliability Management Platform depends on the scalability of the underlying infrastructure that we are hosting it on.
Generally, all are stable at ninety-nine point nine nine percent, but if the underlying infrastructure is not deployed correctly, stability may be problematic.
There have been no stability issues with Dynatrace.
Dynatrace is a SaaS product with frequent agent management updates.
I have not seen any downtime or issues with its behavior or performance.
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.
Dynatrace could enhance cost and licensing structures, as the current pricing can be expensive for large-scale deployments.
I'm specifically looking at AIOps and how we can monitor AIOps-related things, considering we have LLMs and all that stuff.
I think it would be useful to have some integration with Splunk or other log collectors, or maybe in the future, the ability to link Dynatrace or any other observability platform.
If we can integrate it with natural language, could we talk to Gremlin Reliability Management Platform and have it configure some of the basic settings so that non-technical persons can also work on Gremlin Reliability Management Platform-like tools?
The user interface is great, the integration is smooth, and Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has a fantastic support team that helps us a lot in many cases.
Dynatrace is known to be costly, which delayed its integration into our system.
If setting up in a large scale environment, it is overwhelming because it is expensive.
The cost can be controlled from our side, and it is very transparent with Dynatrace regarding DPS and licensing.
It is not so cheap, but it has very powerful features.
My role does not incur costs for us since we have an NFR for Gremlin Reliability Management Platform that we can use in our case.
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.
Dynatrace links compute with services and services with code and other components.
There are really two pathways along: fewer incidents because with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, we can make every part of the infrastructure more solid, and less downtime because we can test more architectures and then things like how to put in high availability clusters.
The best feature that Gremlin Reliability Management Platform offers for me is the prebuilt reliability test; I think that is the best feature along with the automated scheduling.
One of my best features of Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is the built-in chaos experiments, which gives you the reliability score of your service.
