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.
Muhammad Zeeshan Siddiqui - PeerSpot reviewer
Dynamic mapping enhances workflows that are user-friendly
One aspect that requires improvement is the agent. Without an agent, gathering sufficient information on applications is challenging. Additionally, the agent sometimes creates performance issues in production environments. If AppDynamics could develop a means to monitor without an agent, it could significantly improve application performance and reduce potential problems. Moving to an agentless solution, like what some competitors are doing, would be beneficial.

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."
"It provides everything into one view, so we can track information from one place to another."
"It is a good monitoring tool. Its stability is very good."
"Application Analytics' most valuable features are the real-user monitoring and the agents installed in the software stack on the application server."
"It is a wonderful monitoring tool that manages various aspects such as system resources (CPU, RAM), mobile performance, and infrastructure monitoring."
"AppDynamics has a very broad range of supported technologies, and it's user-friendly. It looks nice, and it's easy to sell the solution to the stakeholders when we can visualize how the website is working. For example, where we have any problems through visual analytics."
"AppDynamics makes it much easier for us to detect problems or issues before they become problems. We have alerting on all of our business transactions."
"The auto-discovery of the logs is the most valuable feature. It requires minimal configuration, we just need to set up on once and it automatically detects through the code."
"I have found some of the valuable features of AppDynamics Database Monitoring to be once the installation is complete, you are able to quickly start receiving metrics, which is great. The user interface is also very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"Could include more graphical dashboards and EVP access with other app solutions to build reporting dashboards."
"I am not very impressed with support. The service could be better."
"The end-user experience is not really good because we can't catch all of the transactions. We only can catch the full stack of flow transactions, but I think that this is caused by the technology they use. If they will catch every transaction, it will cause a very big load on the performance of applications. The monitoring of all transactions needs improvement."
"The integration ability of AppDynamics with other performance testing tools is an area with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"AppD is really cool and a unified solution for both APM and APM centric Analytics side. We can show almost all business data within the APM context from the end-user perspetive. But this process is a little bit manual. If they catch and map business journeys based on customer interaction on the browser automatically, it should be really fine."
"The interface and user experience could be better."
"The user experience is quite confusing. There are too many different development stages. The UI is not very intuitive."
"As per my experience, the drill-down feature can be improved at the class level."
"The solution’s setup is a bit complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing of the solution is reasonable for what features you receive."
"For those who appreciate the value and had issues with the visibility of the performance of their applications, then the pricing is good. For somebody who does not need it, it can be pricey, but overall, it is worth the money which it costs."
"It would be better if there were more solutions incorporated into the base price. ​"
"The license for AppDynamics is procured by our customers."
"The tool is expensive."
"The product’s licencing policy is competitive. However, properly identify and size your needs to get the best rate."
"It's a very expensive product. Each of the licenses after this month for one server is around $9,000 or $10,000."
"We find its pricing reasonable and competitive. After it was acquired by Cisco, we found it acceptable."
