Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's great for monitoring services and applications.""Its GUI is really good and it easy to understand for non-technical users.""It is a stable solution.""The most valuable feature of Instana Dynamic APM is auto-instrumentation.""The overall capabilities are the most valuable.""With auto-discovery, we didn't need to consider much. We just installed the agent on the host and it was able to detect everything from the host level up to the service level, for whatever stack was installed, and that includes containers and dockers.""With Instana, the interface and the UI are very simple to use.""The detailing of our application behavior and user experience is most valuable. In case there is an issue, we typically use Instana to figure it out. We can drill down to the application and figure out what's going on and where the issue is."

Cons
"Its SLI and SLA features need improvement in setting up alerts.""The solution's monitoring is pretty weak and should be improved.""Many managers, as well as our customers, used to ask for reports, such as "top X number of queries that are slow," or "top pages that have the highest number of issues." This is something that can be improved by Instana. Currently, they don't have that kind of reporting available out-of-the-box.""We'd always like to see additional functionalities.""We should be able to go back to scenarios during or before the issue. There should be something like a history playback. Such a feature or functionality would be good.""I think that Instana should improve the university and the certification process, so the users can find experts in Instana with their certification module process.""The App Connect middleware does not integrate with or show corresponding sub nodes.""Maybe log monitoring could be better."

  • "The solution is less expensive than one of its competitors."
