Niranjan Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
Principal Solution Architect- Security & Privacy at Sify Technologies
Provides different types of logs, but the logs are dispersed in different layers
As per RBI's regulations, we have to perform active log collection and retention of logs for a certain period. The market is too competitive, and various technologies are being adopted. Different cloud providers are available in the market. I am an SIEM service provider. My technology should be well-versed to accommodate all kinds of landscapes from where I can actively collect and process real-time events. I might lose a customer if I miss something due to a technical glitch. Once I address a specific requirement, Oracle should consider it a universal problem. We have to secure the information assets in today's world. This information should be secure in all kinds of environments and geographies, whether deployed on-premise or on the cloud. All different types of logs are available in a unified manner in Oracle. Overall, I rate the solution a five or six out of ten.
Shamim Alsharif - PeerSpot reviewer
Performance Test Engineer at TANIM CONSULTING, LLC
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

"The solution provides different types of logs like audit, service, and API logs."
"The most valuable feature is mapping."
"Using this solution enables our users to figure out, within a second, any problems with the application or the database."
"The IT analysis provides the best solution as to how the infrastructure is going."
"The release management capabilities are great."
"The AppDyniamics technical support is good; we haven't had any problems with them and they answer very quickly."
"Monitoring and mediating the risks are the most beneficial features."
"AppDynamics Browser Real-User Monitoring provides smooth connectivity to different applications."
"Splunk AppDynamics positively impacts our organization by allowing real-time performance monitoring, enabling us to optimize various business applications and visibly enhance their performance."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its GUI."
"AppDynamics has been stable."
"The business transaction tier of management is the most valuable feature; the fact that we can go into multiple tiers and monitor the transactions from the end-user point of view."
 

Cons

"The pricing could be improved."
"The reporting is sometimes a little slow."
"The logs in the solution are dispersed in different layers, so we have to pick the logs from different areas."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence and machine learning brought in to monitor the statement and payment sum issues we have."
"The solution's features could be more mobile friendly."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"In the next release, I would like to see the configuration of the data and more support for new applications. It should support new languages."
"Their support should be improved. Clusters and monitoring can also be improved."
"The challenge in the installation is that you have to configure a lot of things manually. The way you install and configure it is not straightforward."
"Specific to what our experience is, because we're using Cloud Foundry, we're using an extension to monitor the infrastructure for that; that's probably the weakest point for it, because it basically collects JMX metrics."
"I think a little more control over which transactions get that depth attached to them would be good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cheap compared to its alternatives."
"It could be cheaper. It's a little cost prohibitive. There are so many features that also show a lot of value, but it’s not always easy to justify the cost."
"The solution is highly expensive"
"It is a more expensive APM among the competitors, which is fine because it also does a lot more on the auto-detection and the AI side... It is not a cheap product. None of them are. The price is fair, but I could use it on more projects if they had a lower price."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and it is expensive. The licensing model needs to improve."
"Our purchasing experience through the AWS Marketplace has been pretty painless."
"There is an annual cost to use this solution. The licensing model could be improved by making it more cost-effective."
"There is a license for the solution and we paid approximately $2,000. There is also an additional cost above the standard license which cost us approximately $3,000."
"The pricing for AppDynamics Server Monitoring in Africa and the Middle East is too expensive, so it's very hard to sell it to customers. If there could be different pricing or package for the region, that would be great. My company pays for the license of AppDynamics Server Monitoring on a per-agent, per-server basis. It's $700 to $1000 per server, and it's paid annually. My company is on a subscription model for the solution. On a scale of one to five, where one is expensive and five is cheap, my rating for the price of AppDynamics Server Monitoring is a two."
