"AppDynamics Database Monitoring's dashboarding is its best feature."
"We were able to correct problems, which led to an increase in availability, time savings, and performance for our solutions."
"In my experience, it's easy to use. There's nothing complex to learn or fear. You can quickly adapt to it without the need for extensive training."
"What I found valuable in AppDynamics Database Monitoring is good technical support. I also like that it's scalable and stable."
"The most valuable feature in this solution, for our business, is the clear way of projecting the connections between the database and the traffic inflow. This is very helpful when troubleshooting issues."
"The feature that is most valuable to us is the snapshot feature. It allows us to get a snapshot of different SQL scripts that are being executed simultaneously and we can identify everything we need on them."
"The solution is great for database monitoring. You don't have to install an agent on the database. You just install the server to a database agent. It's a good product for some database administration if you don't want to install an agent on the database for security."
"It has a random transaction trace which gives our customers the ability to look at how their transaction performs."
"We use it to create dashboards and executive view dashboards, so our higher up managers can take a look and see where our application status stands."
"Cross-platform business transaction tracing supports the ability to monitor end-to-end performance across the stack, providing granular insight into customer experience KPIs, which are a critical success factor for organizations."
"The ability to accomplish the identification of the root cause of problems with applications in drill-down level by integrating the suite with tools for managing and monitoring."
"Helps the development team to fine-tune and proactively manage the application."
"It helps us prioritize application performance issues. It has assisted triage where we can drill down and see where exactly the problem lies."
"It's a very stable product."
"Now, we know we have a problem, because there is a primary layer of alerting or metrics monitoring put in place, that is the good part."
"The solution should add some monitoring similar to Oracle monitoring tools for databases. It has a lot of features to monitor SQL queries, and make some recommendation to resolve it. AppDynamics is just monitoring for delays and doesn't provide any recommendations for that. It's a deficiency."
"It could be more user-friendly for beginners."
"They could align the product strategy to evolve as a complete solution."
"The application end of AppDynamics Database Monitoring needs to improve by checking which applications consume licenses."
"This product has an issue with initial lag upon opening that we would like to see improved."
"The product requires high maintenance."
"The day-to-day activities should be less complicated so that anyone can manage it."
"The synthetic scripting for end-user monitoring could be a little bit broader. Instead of using just Python, they can include a few other languages so that not everyone has to jump on the bandwagon for Python and do Selenium scripting. They can open up that a bit to make it simpler for people to do the scripting."
"We enountered stability issues. They were mitigated by performance tuning within infrastructure."
"User interface - CA is moving towards HTML5, but still a lot is Java, old fashioned, non-customizable and not user friendly. It’s look and feel is still too technical."
"The front-end representation should match other competitors such as AppDynamics."
"The reason it's not a ten is because they don't focus enough on improving over time like other competitors do who have a more modern and complete tool."
"It should be easier to install or set everything up. "
"Technical support is slow to respond and also asks redundant questions."
"The solution still needs the administrator of APM to know a lot more to configure and control everything. So it's a headache for the administrator to do the daily jobs."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive and address support tickets more quickly."
