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.

Real-time monitoring has improved our banking API performance and supports detailed business transaction analysis
The real-time monitoring is what we can see for anything that is needed in terms of CPU, memory, or the connections or the sessions related. It's real-time monitoring of performance of each of the components, which is what we need and use all the time. It's highly effective, I would say. Infrastructure visibility, transaction monitoring, to check the actual user experience in terms of the response time, MRT and all those things. We do the component monitoring like the API performance and the connections and all those things, but we also do the business process monitoring and business transaction monitoring.

Pros

"It was easy to set up."
"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."
"AppDynamics has become the go-to tool for issue identification."
"Before we moved the code to AppDynamics, we had to compare the agile process and also had to make sure that they're following the standards."
"APM really helps us in getting down to the bottom of these sorts of workloads; how code responds to these sorts of workloads and how we can make our application deliver better latency and a better end-user experience."
"The most valuable feature is the end-to-end transaction tracing, which provides genuine insights by allowing users to follow a single transaction across multiple microservices to pinpoint delays or errors, thereby saving hours during major incidents."
"I have found the main feature of the solution to be its ability to analyze an application's code to see where there are issues. Additionally, it is easy to use and configure."
"AppDynamics will assist the company in managing its overall systems, capabilities, and performance."
"With Splunk AppDynamics SecureApp solution, we can easily see our application's vulnerabilities, attacks, and exploits in real time."
"AppDynamics does exactly what I want it to do."
 

Cons

"I do not have any notes for improvement."
"The dashboard needs improvement."
"Very limited people are available with resource availability in this region, and they have limited knowledge."
"The configuration is tricky and requires a lot of tools."
"The network diagnostics that they are adding will be really useful. They could add more detail into what is going on in the network."
"The user access management could be a bit better."
"The scalable of this solution is relative."
"They need to improve the consolidation of agents for the agent's installation process."
"Installation and configuration can be very tough. An average user without specialized knowledge can't do this. You need to have DevOps and QA teams handle it. During installation, a lot of customers get stuck trying to track the database or the API part, and they have to contact customer support."
"Charting is cumbersome; inability to do decimal fraction arithmetic in expressions (for alerts), so everything has to be done in % rather than as natural fractions."
"While it is scalable, it could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Purchasing the product through the AWS Marketplace was good."
"Take into consideration what you get for specific pricing models and how much it costs to add on things you may need later.​"
"As a technical person, and as an application development team, they all understand that this is the right tool for us. But when it comes to budget and financial matters, it takes days and weeks to convince upper management to buy this tool. So they should do something more on licensing costs."
"I was not involved with the procurement of AppDynamic, but I believe it's expensive."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and it is expensive. The licensing model needs to improve."
"The license fee for Application Analytics is in the range of 2.5 million over three years, with extra fees for service contingencies."
"It's a very expensive product. Each of the licenses after this month for one server is around $9,000 or $10,000."
"The way it is structured in terms of price could be better. You pay for individual modules and that adds on to the cost, which detracts you from implementing those modules and slows you down."
