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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"As a consulting company we implement management solutions to a large variety of companies and after working with OpMon our project time was reduced and we can offer a different solution to each customer."
"Since we started using OpMon, we have increased our assertiveness and consequently reduced costs with fewer errors."
"Splunk AppDynamics' infrastructure monitoring is satisfactory."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is Proactive Monitoring and Alerting."
"We have seen application availability increase, and there is a twenty-five percent reduction of the application downtime."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The solution is very scalable, and you can get the performance data from the end users, so it provides a proper way to analyze data from different regions."
"The good thing with AppDynamics Databases is that it will give you a pretty good overview of the data, all the database-like tables, long-running queries, jobs running on the databases, and the queries that are taking more time. So, it's at a deeper level with all the database functionalities, and you will get that information. So, it's a pretty good tool in that sense."
"Visibility to the end-users is a valuable feature."
 

Cons

"Infrastructure and business monitoring services need improvement."
"It's very complex regarding pricing, setup costs, and licensing of Splunk AppDynamics."
"It needs strengthening in the database tiers."
"AppDynamics should add more features to identify in case if there is some thread waiting for something."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring has room for improvement in terms of pricing. If the price could be cheaper, it would be great for both the customer and the integrator. What I'd like to see in the next release of AppDynamics Server Monitoring is a better dashboard for the customer. The dashboard should be more interactive."
"They need to improve the consolidation of agents for the agent's installation process."
"However, we have a slight complexity where for infrastructure we have to go to one agent, for the database we have to go to one agent, and for the application we go to another agent."
"My impression of the scalability of the solution is that it is not very scalable. They are not the market leader anymore."
"The network diagnostics that they are adding will be really useful. They could add more detail into what is going on in the network."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The license for AppDynamics is procured by our customers."
"AppDynamics Browser Real-User Monitoring does have licensing cost associated with it."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring requires a license for database monitoring and other features, while Dynatrace provides monitoring and other features out of the box without additional costs. Sometimes this makes it more challenging to pitch AppDynamics Database Monitoring to customers, especially because you need to buy a separate license. As an implementer, I have yet to learn about the pricing for AppDynamics Database Monitoring. Pricing is taken care of by the sales team."
"The pricing for AppDynamics is expensive, but it is possible to negotiate special pricing through bids."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"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."
"You are required to purchase licenses whether you use it or not. It is not pay-as-you-use."
"The pricing of the solution is reasonable for what features you receive."
