Helpful dashboard, and the ElasticSearch feature helps to identify problematic components
Savision continuously develops new modules to allow further integration, so the only item would continue with this effort to allow more-and-more systems to integrate into this platform. Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion.

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

"This helps to centralize multiple monitoring solutions and streamline integration into ITSM."
"The dashboards and views available are easy to manage and share, and provide all of the metrics required."
"APM gives us easier troubleshooting and notification of issues, and we can report off of that data to show application performance improvements over time."
"Technical support is very good."
"It has definitely improved us with performance; now we get alerted in time, we can see the call graphic and see where it's taking the most time, then we can go back to our code, improve it, and optimize it."
"The real user monitoring helps us evaluate our customers' real experiences, which is valuable as an eCommerce company."
"This is absolutely a product that I would recommend to other users."
"This is purely an application instrumentation and monitoring tool with good features for business analytics."
"The solution saves time and cost."
"Transition tracing is the most valuable is pretty easy and useful, but the user experience piece is also good."
 

Cons

"Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion."
"Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion."
"The synthetic scripting for end-user monitoring could be a little bit broader."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring has room for improvement in terms of pricing. If the price could be cheaper, it would be great for both the customer and the integrator. What I'd like to see in the next release of AppDynamics Server Monitoring is a better dashboard for the customer. The dashboard should be more interactive."
"One thing for which we didn't get a clear answer is how taxing or how much overhead it can create on a database."
"I would like the ability to choose from some pre-defined dashboards and reports because as it is now, you have to define them separately for each implementation."
"Support is off-shore and somewhat slow."
"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 solution should add some monitoring similar to Oracle monitoring tools for databases. AppDynamics is just monitoring for delays and doesn't provide any recommendations; it's a deficiency."
"I would like to see accommodation for millisecond granularity, as we only have one-second granularity now."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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."
"The pricing needs to come down."
"As a technical person, and as an application development team, they all understand that this is the right tool for us. But when it comes to budget and financial matters, it takes days and weeks to convince upper management to buy this tool. So they should do something more on licensing costs."
"My understanding is that the price of this solution is quite high, compared to other products."
"Because it is priced per JVM, the price can increase pretty fast, into the millions. We have had challenges because we had to justify the price to our clients, as well, when we are putting in certain tools."
"AppDynamics is really pricey as it requires licenses for every feature."
"There is an annual cost to use this solution. The licensing model could be improved by making it more cost-effective."
"It is not a cheap tool, but you also save in manpower to setup because it is easy and fast. At the end of the day, I think the revenue is much better. BUT, they have an awful co-term mode of licensing."
