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."
"Having eyes on performance for storage through the Analyzer is valuable for me."
"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."
"The solution is very, very stable. We haven't faced any bugs or glitches on the system."
"The real-time feature provides me with insights into what's happening."
"The best feature of AppDynamics is the analytics, which gives us the business insights of the application."
"The transaction snapshots let you find out where the application broke; it pinpoints where in the call stack, and then how long it took to resolve."
"AppDynamics is scalable. They can monitor billions of transactions because they're not monitoring all transactions. They're monitoring samples. So, they can offer good monitoring for the huge sites."
"AppDynamics has been stable."
"Applications: This provides us insight into how our applications are performing within our environments and affords us the ability to identify opportunities and make changes to code / environment to effect positive performance lift."
"In the case of a mobile banking application, AppDynamics Mobile Real-User Monitoring successfully reduced the response time from eight seconds to just one second. In another example, the tool identified an issue within the mobile app, causing lost transactions in the billing system."
 

Cons

"The dashboard needs improvement."
"I do not have any notes for improvement."
"Very limited people are available with resource availability in this region, and they have limited knowledge."
"I would like to see some cosmetic enhancements."
"The solution’s setup is a bit complex."
"Their support should be improved. Clusters and monitoring can also be improved."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring lacks investment in new technologies like Kubernetes and cloud solutions."
"We have had downtime, which has been the result of config, application, or cord issues."
"The infrastructure is not as good as other solutions."
"This solution is expensive."
"Its resiliency can be improved. We're told that the best we can do with an on-prem solution is to have a hot standby that requires a manual switchover. So, it is a do-it-yourself Ikea model of maintaining data consistency between two servers, without having low balance or failover considerations for an on-prem solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I believe there was probably an extra charge whenever I wanted to contact the support team."
"You are required to purchase licenses whether you use it or not. It is not pay-as-you-use."
"The solution is highly expensive"
"I give the price a five out of ten."
"AppDynamics does not usually do monthly payments. They do it on an annual basis, at the very least."
"AppDynamics is what I would consider an enterprise-level solution. This means that it's a solution that is intended for use by larger organizations, while small or medium-sized businesses may find it difficult to afford. The number of agents required will also impact the pricing, and smaller companies may only be able to afford a limited number of agents. Essentially, the cost of the solution is not within the reach of every organization, and only some may be able to afford it."
"We buy the platform's yearly subscription."
"The pricing for AppDynamics Server Monitoring in Africa and the Middle East is too expensive, so it's very hard to sell it to customers. If there could be different pricing or package for the region, that would be great. My company pays for the license of AppDynamics Server Monitoring on a per-agent, per-server basis. It's $700 to $1000 per server, and it's paid annually. My company is on a subscription model for the solution. On a scale of one to five, where one is expensive and five is cheap, my rating for the price of AppDynamics Server Monitoring is a two."
