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."
"We became 100% dependent on AppDynamics after we started using it."
"With Dynatrace, AppDynamics Mobile Real-User Monitoring is one of the best tools on the market."
"Has helped us to increase customer acquisitions and reduce revenue leakage in the following: Conversion rates Average revenue per user Customer acquisition costs Rate of customer churn Recurring or incremental revenue Renewals and/or subscriptions."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it can instrument without the developers having to do anything special or significant."
"AppDynamics monitors the ICT environment by just installing a Java or .NET agent and machine agent on the server, shows how all the components in the infrastructure work together to run an application, and lets you pinpoint easily where the performance issues for your application are."
"Splunk AppDynamics is very efficient in all those areas and, compared to the cost, it is also very cost-efficient, because that is the main thing for every organization."
"I've been really happy with it and everything we want it to do, it's done."
"The best feature of about Splunk AppDynamics is its interface, which allows me to see the full transaction, exactly what is happening, from where it starts to where the call is going, all the services involved in a call, and exactly the time it took from each node to each node along with the network delays."
 

Cons

"Infrastructure and business monitoring services need improvement."
"AppDynamics is new to the cloud and could improve its cloud services, they are following a monolithic monitoring approach."
"Maybe some more CPU power or something like that could be an area to improve."
"The cloud licensing needs to be improved. It's quite pricey."
"I install it frequently and sometimes when they fix something they break something else, so better QA is needed to ensure the quality of their fixes."
"If you have a single URL and all the operations are coming in as part of the header, you will not be able to segregate them for different actions."
"Technical support hasn't been too impressive so we ended up having to resolve our own issues."
"This feature needs to be properly described to a client, and then the client needs to have a use case. There are some clients which do not need it and some clients who do. It is not for everyone and is dependant on their use case."
"I think a little more control over which transactions get that depth attached to them would be good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The licensing cost is fairly high"
"The pricing model for AppDynamics could be better. You have to subscribe to a yearly or a three-year licensing, which isn't very handy. The solution is one of the most expensive in the market today."
"It is expensive. However, our time to recover has been reduced, and this product has helped recuperate costs and provided us with ROI."
"AppDynamics is really pricey as it requires licenses for every feature."
"AppDynamics does not usually do monthly payments. They do it on an annual basis, at the very least."
"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."
"The license for AppDynamics is procured by our customers."
"I was not involved with the procurement of AppDynamic, but I believe it's expensive."
