"The most valuable feature of Alluvio AppResponse is the actual response time for measuring performance."
"Ability to see end to end user, application, server, and network response time and throughput data."

"In terms of features that could be improved, I would say the agent integration into the operating system. We are having difficulties integrating Linux into some of the networking devices."
"Direct integration with third-party tools, like ticketing systems, is lacking but would be beneficial."
"It would be a much better product if Microsoft provided management packs with the product."
"The price could be improved."
"Stability and some performance issues exist and they need improvement."
"Third-party tools have had to be created to make SCOM management pack creation more efficient and effective. However, this weighs down the application as it just adds a resource requirement, which is ballooning the size of the necessary storage and all that for essentially substandard components."
"The dashboard features are not user-friendly for our management team, only for the technical department."
"I would like to see them improve their network monitoring."
