Performance monitoring impacts operations with fast storage setup
Having eyes on performance for storage through the Analyzer is valuable for me. The Ops center from Hitachi lets us see all storage in one place, unlike Dell and EMC, where we work on one storage. The Analyzer and the Ops center provide a better solution. Before this, we used a CVP with slow performance. This solution works better than before. The visualization vector in the last version is something we have. It is easy to work with and add the storage type. There is no difficulty in adding it.
Gyanesh Rahatekar - PeerSpot reviewer
Application performance management and error resolution improved with data-driven insights
Dynatrace has multiple functions compared to Splunk AppDynamics, so Splunk AppDynamics should add those functions, which are not available as of now. Dynatrace has a universal agent that collects all information related to their CI, and if one CI has multiple languages, then there is no need to instrument multiple agents. However, Splunk AppDynamics requires multiple agents; if I have one server with multiple applications in different languages, then I need to instrument different agents for each application. Splunk AppDynamics should work with Dynatrace with one single universal agent that works with all application languages, eliminating the need for multiple implementations.

Pros

"It was easy to set up."
"The Ops center from Hitachi lets us see all storage in one place, unlike Dell and EMC, where we work on one storage."
"Having eyes on performance for storage through the Analyzer is valuable for me."
"It was easy to set up."
"The transaction snapshots are the most valuable feature of AppDynamics"
"It provides everything into one view, so we can track information from one place to another."
"This solution not only provides answers but also provides sensor data. This allows us to quickly resolve issues that developers may take a long time to solve."
"This solution gives us quite good insights that we might otherwise overlook, or it might take a really long time to debug those issues."
"The most valuable feature is having our services being available and healthy."
"We previously had an operations team continuously monitoring applications. Now, they just have set things up and our developers can monitor, view, and act on them, accordingly."
"The solution is great for database monitoring. You don't have to install an agent on the database. You just install the server to a database agent. It's a good product for some database administration if you don't want to install an agent on the database for security."
"Database scaling or migration projects play a supportive role throughout the development, monitoring, and troubleshooting phases."
 

Cons

"The dashboard needs improvement."
"Very limited people are available with resource availability in this region, and they have limited knowledge."
"I do not have any notes for improvement."
"I would like to have customizable dashboards to use when I am monitoring certain applications."
"The integration with cloud services is still pending with AppDynamics. We would like the product to be serverless."
"The overall performance of this solution could be improved. The hot-hot infrastructure features could also be improved."
"Splunk AppDynamics provides an end-to-end view of the application but misses the infrastructure part, which is crucial."
"The UI could use a little help."
"They are using Flash for their website, which is very slow. We had hoped the website would be much faster to use, and that is definitely what we want to see."
"Customization requires a few manual tweaks."
"I am not very impressed with support. The service could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We are looking forward to purchasing the solution on the AWS Marketplace."
"AppDynamics is really pricey as it requires licenses for every feature."
"It could be a bit lower, but looking at the scalability, functionality, and other things, you can understand why AppDynamics is so expensive as compared to some of the cheaper products that don't have that full single pane of glass they've got. Dynatrace has got three different elements that you need to log into just to get a full view, which is not so good, and because of that, it is a bit cheaper."
"It is expensive. However, our time to recover has been reduced, and this product has helped recuperate costs and provided us with ROI."
"We have a license-based solution. That means you need a license for each server you monitor."
"The pricing is very competitive."
"Because it is priced per JVM, the price can increase pretty fast, into the millions. We have had challenges because we had to justify the price to our clients, as well, when we are putting in certain tools."
"The license fee for Application Analytics is in the range of 2.5 million over three years, with extra fees for service contingencies."
