Provides great data on business growth as well as analytics for future business planning
The solution is particularly useful in terms of future business planning. It also helps with current data on business growth. As a cloud solution, this is one of the best. It has the IT Analytics and integrates well with big data analytics in ADW and Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse. There are some fantastic features. The solution also has the OBIEE component. I think it's a game changer.
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Particularly useful in terms of future business planning."
"We set up alerts recently so we can fix any issues more quickly in production."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the response time from the end-to-end server."
"Before we moved the code to AppDynamics, we had to compare the agile process and also had to make sure that they're following the standards."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring provides a single view of the problem and helps identify the guilty database query, which is unique compared to other solutions."
"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."
"We're a large organization, so we appreciate AppDynamics' wide coverage. It may not work in all areas, but it has broad coverage. We can use the same dataset for different use case aspects. That is the beauty of AppDynamics. You can coordinate APM, EUM, and infrastructure through one dataset."
"Whenever the application crashes from user behavior, we can easily simulate the error. We are happy with this feature and find it to be valuable."
"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is Proactive Monitoring and Alerting."
 

Cons

"Could include more graphical dashboards and EVP access with other app solutions to build reporting dashboards."
"The major concern lies with reports, specifically their configurability. It's like, if I want to combine multiple reports and generate them all at once, that's not possible. Even though there's a setup for generating 25 reports, I wanted to group them all and generate them in one go, which isn't currently feasible. I have to manually run each report and set the time for it."
"The AppDynamics installation process needs to be more straightforward. Deploying the product is also tricky."
"There may be some older technologies that are still covered, however, it's not as plug-and-play. You can still do it, however, it takes slightly more effort for engineers to cover old technologies such as C++, Delphi, and so on. It still can be done. It's just not as easy as, for example, covering Java."
"The networking monitor function could be better, we are not getting many details from it."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"The solution is available at an inflated cost"
"The infrastructure is not as good as other solutions."
"Application Analytics' performance in pure and native cloud environments could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"There is no standard license instead, the license is adapted to the organization's requirements."
"AppDynamics is an expensive solution."
"The product is a bit expensive compared to other tools."
"The pricing for AppDynamics is expensive, but it is possible to negotiate special pricing through bids."
"AppDynamics Browser Real-User Monitoring does have licensing cost associated with it."
"The pricing is quite comparable to similar solutions in the market. All these solutions at the moment are cheap, but it is like paying for insurance; you pay insurance to avoid major damage."
"If one is expensive and ten is low price, I rate the product price as seven out of ten."
"The pricing needs to come down."
