Provides a comprehensive view by integrating with other monitoring systems

There may be an issue since there are many tools like Splunk involved in network monitoring. From an IP perspective, Dynatrace is performing well. If they want to develop in network monitoring, they can, as it's part of their product line. It's not rocketry, so they can accomplish it. If I, as an SI, look at it from an enterprise perspective, considering the cost from the client, I prefer not to go with multiple systems, as they don't provide a complete 360-degree view. They need to improve on claims about being an enterprise system. 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.

Automation helps reduce human error, and platform suggests the best configuration to apply

The optimizations are the most useful aspect because most customers have a very unmanaged network with a lot of rules. We use a lot of the optimizations in our reports for improving firewall rules. It also provides our clients with full visibility into the risks involved in firewall change requests and that is very important because our clients are often banks that must be in compliance with PCI. And when it comes to preparing for audits and ensuring that firewalls are in compliance, the solution is very useful. We are able to do it very fast. We can do a lot of iterations and get better policy rules all the time. Although not many of our clients are migrating to the cloud, for those that are, AlgoSec is useful. The part of the process that takes a long time is the human part. We must have gap committees and approvals that take a long time. But the integration itself is very easy with AlgoSec. We have all the information in our hands about the traffic we must enable on the cloud and for making new rules. All that is automated.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"PurePath view of methods and the call stack are extremely valuable for troubleshooting and performance review."

"I like the PurePaths dashlet the most. This is mostly because as soon I open the PurePaths dashlet and sort by response time, there is the problem. Every time."

"We setup triggers for certain critical events. When these events happen, alert notifications are sent to the support team to take immediate action."

"The monitoring is very good."

"OneAgent, the new platform of Dynatrace, it is called artificial intelligence (AI), so basically that artificial intelligence correlates multiple infrastructure competence transactions services and application processes. It is one of the most important features, so when there is a fire break, you do not have to go multiple hops to go look where exactly the issue is."

"Overall, it has provided improved stability to our system both within prod and non-prod environments."

"I get valuable information like, for example, if a site is down. That's the key. I'm instantly getting a message, or even on the app, I can see if something overnight went down a few times, or it's not performing at 100%."

"The deployment itself is very easy and straightforward."

More Dynatrace pros

"The most valuable feature is the automation that can be accomplished by using scripts. If we didn't have AlgoSec, I would have to do everything manually."

"AlgoBot is a Slack chatbot that they've designed to help people identify if the firewalls are going to allow or block specific network traffic. We leveraged this to allow our staff to check themselves if the firewalls are going to be blocking traffic or not. That saves us logging into the firewalls and running the query off the host. We give them the power to use it and it saves us time."

"We have Check Point, Palo Alto, and FortiGate firewalls, and it integrates pretty seamlessly with these firewalls. We have had no issues so far."

"Because we get about 60 to 70 rules to deploy a week during the firewall maintenance window, we might create some duplicate rules or open duplicate ports. AlgoSec has become very helpful whenever we need to find out the nodes or subnets that have already been created, then we don't need to create the duplicate subnet of that particular IP address."

"The firewall policy summarization is the most valuable feature. It helps us to cross-check the firewall ruleset. That's the main purpose of it. And of course, it monitors changes of the firewall policy. It provides full visibility into the risk involved in firewall change requests. It helps us to check for any integrity issues and conflicts with other rulesets, and of course the compliance."

"The optimizations are the most useful aspect because most customers have a very unmanaged network with a lot of rules. We use a lot of the optimizations in our reports for improving firewall rules."

"The workflow and the fact that I can follow up on a request that I've created and clearly see the status it is in are the most valuable features of this solution. When I need things to move on, for example, if the security guys didn't look at the request or the implementation is not going as it should, then I can contact people. There is a mechanism in there that clearly indicates the service level agreement we have for implementation. We can see if it is being attained."

"The most unique feature is the ability to help fix any gaps or mismatches in the configuration of the firewall."

More Prevasio pros

Cons

"Infrastructure monitoring could be improved."

"Documentation is slightly in error as far as directory set ups and guidance. We came to our own solution for distributing the disk loads."

"It needs container log monitoring."

"The integration between the web monitoring of Dynatrace and OneAgent. "

"The Web UI can be slow and hard to understand."

"There are lots of features to share information, but we need to learn to leverage that, both on the web browser and on the mobile app."

"Training is required for all of the people who will be using it, and this should not be overlooked. I would even recommend nominating an SME in each of the three areas covered: user behaviour analysis, development, and infrastructure/operations support."

"There are a lot of features that could be added that would make this a very useful solution, but it is getting there."

More Dynatrace cons

"The technical support response time is low. This might be due to the coronavirus pandemic situation, but I am not getting full support when working with them."

"In the new version H32, there are many, many bugs."

"We work with multiple security vendors. It's rather difficult to integrate the vendors. AlgoSec is a platform that hasn't really been developed as much as we would like to just because of its complexity to set up. If it was easy to set up and easy to get integrations with other companies, then we would be doing it. But the thought is that we are relatively stretched thin in our team as it is and the complexity of configuring AlgoSec doesn't make it any easier."

"There is a little bit of scope for improvement in the risk profiles that come with the AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer module. Currently, AlgoSec provides only three standard zones within a risk profile. These standard zones are external, internal, and DMZ. Everybody's network is divided into different zones within a data center, but AlgoSec only provides three zones. This is a limitation that I see for the risk profile analysis. If there was an option to customize these zones, it would be great."

"The API integration could potentially improve. I didn't get a chance to look and see how well this solution can integrate with ServiceNow or our GRC environment."

"AlgoSec cannot be integrated with solutions that require two-step or multi-factor authentication. Embedding multi-factor authentication capability into the solution would be a valuable feature."

"The analysis part can be improved when I make a flow request. There should be a clear analysis of which metric part needs to be opened and which firewalls will be opened. It should give you a bit more graphical visibility about these."

"Integration with Oracle on the cloud is not supported. I would also like to see integrations with network devices in Layer 2."

More Prevasio cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think that the price is reasonable."

"It is quite expensive for startups."

"The product is pricey, but it is feature-rich, which is why we probably haven't looked away from it."

"Dynatrace is the most expensive APM that we sell, compared to competitors' products. The license pricing could be improved. My customers pay for licensing yearly."

"Pricing is based on the number of servers monitored, so for big applications, it is a bit expensive."

"While it is quite good in respect to its functionality, there are few area in regards to pricing that they can look at how to possibly change. I have heard it's costly."

"Always gives good ROI and total cost of ownership."

"Its price is quite high. Although it is worth it, it would be better if its price is reduced. They base their prices around licensing. Their prices are based on agent licensing and consumption licensing. Both of these can be a bit cheaper, but if they are the best in the market, as I consider them to be, I assume that their prices will be higher. They are delivering the product for that price."

More Dynatrace pricing and cost advice

"For the South American market, the prices are very high."

"I heard that the licensing was around $100,000 a year."
