Featured Reviews

Anand_Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Ashish Upadhyay - PeerSpot reviewer
Has efficient security measures and seamless integration capabilities
The product's user experience needs improvement. They could refine the interface and make the platform more intuitive and user-friendly for enterprises and developers. Additionally, improving integration capabilities with other blockchain networks and legacy systems would broaden its applicability and facilitate smoother integration into existing infrastructures. The platform should focus on being more developer-friendly and ensuring a user interface that is not overly tricky. Continuous optimization of performance and scalability to handle increasing workloads is crucial for seamless operation. Lastly, ongoing research and development efforts should remain vigilant against emerging threats to incorporate the latest advancements and solidify the platform's security.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution would be the level of visibility that you get. I haven't seen anything that gives us that level of visibility yet"
"Finds issues that previously occupied people for months."
"The AppMon solution helped the operations guys to pinpoint one problem area and call the specific group, instead of everyone. The mean time to repair and the resource utilization time, they are totally reduced."
"Dynatrace can look into application transactions at the packet level, which pretty much relieves us of the work of manually collecting, analyzing, summarizing, and presenting the data, as we had done in the past."
"Helps us in understanding what elements on the page contribute to load time and the primary ​areas to focus on for improvement."
"Great for monitoring critical internal and public-facing applications."
"One of the features that sets this product apart from its competitors is that it generates a solution."
"Support from Dynatrace is excellent. They are always on hand for any queries, demos, and/or issues."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the reporting and the traffic view that the product provides its users."
"The most valuable feature of Quantum Smart-1 Cloud lies in its scalability, providing a secure infrastructure for enterprise applications."
 

Cons

"I also wish there was the ability to do alert filtering before it triggered an alert with PagerDuty/OpsGenie/Slack."
"Getting the EM data, we have to open a browser. Generally, one of the asks from our clients or our engineering team is to change this."
"We would also like to see all the good data in a single view across multiple tools, so that access to integration is critical."
"Right now, there is a log analysis feature. This is maybe a little more deeper than the log analytics in comparison to other tools, like Splunk or Sumo Logic. If Dynatrace can come up with this replay feature, that would be great."
"The business use case is that most people want to see how many orders came in. I'd like to be able to get data out of JavaScript tags, and capture more data. I think that would make it much more useful, rather than using Google Analytics. Instead, have one tool to capture all the stack, that would make it easy."
"I would love to see a better data export, because AppMon's charting capabilities leaves a lot to be desired. You have about a 5,000 line limit. I would really like to see the ability to export, in Dynatrace and AppMon, in essentially in a nice format of whatever you want to whatever else."
"The products or company go through a rebrand/renaming about once a year, which creates some confusion with our customers."
"When integrating this solution with any third party applications, there is an additional cost to pay. This can make the solution very costly to use."
"They could refine the interface and make the platform more intuitive and user-friendly for enterprises and developers."
"VPN configuration can get clunky sometimes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I have not been able to observe more than 1% overhead, despite Dynatrace saying that it can be slightly higher in some situations."
"The licensing for Dynatrace is high. If you want to go for monitoring solutions, then why Dynatrace? If you have a particular budget, you can go for many other monitoring tools - apart from Dynatrace - and they can help you more and give more data than Dynatrace can. It's not worth the money that you spend for Dynatrace."
"Getting the first agents installed, getting information, and coverage in a initial set of systems can be done in hours and with a low cost entry point."
"Licensing is a bit complicated for Dynatrace, and pricing is dependent on how much your organization invests."
"We have not fully been able to get the full value out of the product. It is expensive compared to other things that we have had in the past. Paying that much and not being able to get the full return on the product is a downgrade. ​"
"The product is pricey, but it is feature-rich, which is why we probably haven't looked away from it."
"Purchasing through the AWS Marketplace is excellent."
"I think that the price is reasonable."
"Compared to the on-premises solution, I rate Quantum Smart-1 Cloud's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"Quantum Smart-1 Cloud stands out with its competitive pricing model, finely tuned to accommodate diverse user capabilities."
