Managing application health has become simpler but new monitoring features still need faster delivery
I use application discovery and dependency mapping. It helps with managing application health What I like about ManageEngine Applications Manager is the ease of use and ease of deployment. I cannot remember anything specific for future updates of the product. The new features take a lot of time…

Real-time error tracking assists the QA team in swiftly identifying and reporting bugs
One of the greatest advantages of Sentry is its support for Azure Web Services, which New Relic does not support. Sentry integrates with common developer communication platforms like Discord and WhatsApp, which allows developers to easily track notifications and findings in the applications. Real-time error tracking helps our Quality Assurance team easily identify the root causes of problems or bugs and promptly inform the developers about specific issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Cons

"Lacks an SIEM solution which can be found in other products."
"They can improve the post-processing of the data. AppDynamics has more powerful tools for post-processing or analytics. It has some limitations in more complex environments, but because we are free to use different solutions, we try to find what is best for the customers or the problem we are trying to solve."
"The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide."
"It can’t be configured to store APM Insight data for more than one month."
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
"The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work."
"At the moment, we are not finding this solution to be very stable. We've had a lot of calls with the vendor to sort things out."
"More modem support for SMS feature."
"It would be nice if the product provided a map showing the users’ geographic location."
"One area where I think Sentry can improve is in the granularity of its alerting system, as it sometimes feels too sensitive or not customizable enough."
"To deal with its shortcomings, Sentry needs to continuously improve in areas like the user interface and documentation, apart from its other features."
"It should be easier to integrate Sentry with other tools, and the end-to-end tracing capabilities could be improved."
"We cannot restrict particular columns on particular data. It would be helpful if that feature was improved."
"The log centralization and analysis could be improved in Sentry."
"The integration could be improved, and the price could be lowered."
"I would like to see the ability to customize events and get more metrics for these customized events."
