"Global overview of all app layers, including web servers."
"It has more functionality, better additional components, and better management of problems. It also has a good AI."
"We have identified and solved "mystery" issues that we have experienced for a long time, including sporadic latency issues on storage volumes and SQL databases not scaling properly when under certain loads."
"Provides more insight into detecting what the problem is with some of our applications."
"We were able to decrease the number of production defects ever since we started using Dynatrace in our test environment."
"The ability to really drill into performance issues and help our application teams understand what is causing the business's problems."
"It helps to show where the problem is and isolates the issue."
"What I like most about ManageEngine Applications Manager is its price point, apart from its technicalities. The solution is cheaper than its competitors. ManageEngine Applications Manager has helpful documentation that makes setting it up straightforward."
"Its price and the flexibility to deploy are the most valuable. Flexibility is very important, and you can scale from very basic to more complex. This solution is a part of a complete suite of management tools. So, it can be integrated with other solutions for monitoring networks, which is very important. You can expand it or interconnect it with many other tools, which is a powerful feature. We have a very good and long relationship with ManageEngine support guys. They provide very good support for us."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager maintains the historical data and it's easy for us to analyze the trends and patterns and fix them accordingly."
"The initial setup was straightforward, without complexity."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager's installation is pretty easy."
"The feature that I have found most valuable in ManageEngine Applications Manager is its dashboard."
"We do not have pricing constraints as an organization, because we do have reservations about ManageEngine being functionally scalable."
"I would like to see single pane monitoring."
"The one thing I do not like about Dynatrace is that their web dashboards are very very slow. They seriously have to improve their web dashboard configuration and SSL timeouts."
"Dashboarding and having different templates available for more business reporting, or even other metrics, would be useful."
"The initial setup was challenging for us. However, it was complex until you grasped the nuances of the product and the building blocks."
"Nginx monitoring service did not work out-of-the-box, so we had to tinker with it for quite some time."
"Due to the fact that you doing a lot, you have a problem with the learning curve. We're really looking for ways to make this product more accessible."
"I find it is very difficult to train someone in using this application. As amazing as it can be, the learning curve is extensive."
"They're doing vulnerability assessments of the application stack by using OneAgent. It's a never-ending story if you are trying to be sure your application is also secure."
"The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide."
"Lacks an SIEM solution which can be found in other products."
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
"An area for improvement in ManageEngine Applications Manager is artificial intelligence. If AI is integrated into the solution, it'll be a piece of cake. Currently, it's all configured manually."
"I would like the solution to improve the ability to track services."
"The agent often crashes when there is too much load on the application side. If a sudden storm of data comes in, the agent crashes down most of the time."
"They can improve the post-processing of the data. AppDynamics has more powerful tools for post-processing or analytics. It has some limitations in more complex environments, but because we are free to use different solutions, we try to find what is best for the customers or the problem we are trying to solve."
"The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work."
