We performed a comparison between Broadcom DX Application Performance Management and OpenText Diagnostics based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The time it takes to track problems in applications is the most valuable return that we have from this solution."
"With the new feature CA Team Center is much easier to view the information of my user experience, with this unified vision, it was even practical for lay users to use the tool"
"Cross-VM transaction traces provide a complete "what happened where"."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...there is a very easy way to deal with it by adding more servers to the application."
"I have found Broadcom DX Application Performance Management to be scalable."
"The APM tool allows us to monitor performance of that application, where are the pain points, where are the slowdowns, to focus on where we can fix those."
"We understand for APM, it has the ability to drill down and do the end-to-end monitoring that we are looking for."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"For banking and telecom solutions, it's been quite useful."
"The diagnostics and configuration are the solution's most valuable aspects."
"The most valuable feature of Micro Focus Diagnostics is the information reported from an application that has timed out. For example, when you're Googling, or you're booking a ticket for Burj Khalifa here, the longest tower in the world, there are situations where the system can time out. There are times when you might not receive a response on the payment gateway or you are not able to find the reservation. The customer only receives the information that the session has timed out."
"I would like to see intelligence, deep intelligence or deep analytics."
"CEM needs to be simplified, because it causes too many interruptions in our daily work."
"One of the challenges is agent releases. So as we employ agents, they are done relatively manually. A little bit of automating of agent release would be helpful."
"Very often, we use tools such as Kibana or Jaspersoft for dashboards and reporting on CA APM data because CA APM’s old interfaces do not reflect well in modern displays, compared to those new tools."
"Its profiling. The uniqueness instead of me looking at sampling data, I need to know the m-1 event that actually triggered my scenario where that m event caused a catastrophic event, like a ripple effect; I need to know that m-1. What triggered my major event means I need to understand the event that triggered it and before the cause of that event itself."
"Needs the ability to dynamically create dashboards. Right now, we do custom dashboards. Everything is created manually."
"There are several areas that could be improved in Broadcom DX Application Performance Management. One of the main areas is user experience monitoring, which is currently not available. Additionally, they need to develop a solution that is compatible with OpenShift 4, as their current solution only works when an agent is installed within the image, which is not possible in OpenShift 4 as it removes the agent."
"We need more capabilities to analyze the information that tools collects; for example, using artificial intelligence, or something like that."
"The interface could be more user friendly."
"The interface is very old, and not very user-friendly. Most of our clients don't like the UI."
"The GUI and metrics of Micro Focus Diagnostics can be improved. The metrics the solution gathers can be limited and could be enhanced by giving more details."
