We performed a comparison between Dynatrace and Sysdig Monitor based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dynatrace, AppDynamics, Elastic and others in Container Monitoring."One of the key things with Dynatrace is that they are very open to influence on product development side. So, we've influenced them fairly heavily on development and capabilities for Citrix and DC RUM. They've given us integration and support components around some odd technologies that we've got, and they have always been very open and accommodating to going after and developing capabilities around the stuff that we are looking for."
"It provides us a reference for being able to go back and look at data at a certain point, analyze it, then determine if something was the root cause."
"We can go back to when a specific user had an issue and trace the entire transaction from the client to the database."
"Interrelating the logs and infrastructure issues, application issues, DC RUM, everything in one dashboard, saves us time in troubleshooting."
"Auto alerting and reporting on the application and the infrastructure aid us in delivering our service with greater value."
"The most valuable features for me are the dashboard panels because they enable you to monitor multiple applications in one single site."
"You can always get in touch with support representatives and the developers if you want to, and you can get the solution directly from them. They are good about giving customer service, which I really like."
"Since we have been receiving alerts from Dynatrace, we go ahead and fix them without the user knowing about them."
"Docker containers are completely supported, kind of like "first class citizens"."
"The ability to stop/pause and capture logs when something happens is the most valuable feature."
"Our main problems have been that it has a high learning curve to it. I've used it for about three years now and I'm still learning it. There are some videos and there is some documentation out there, but it still requires you to delve into the tool to learn it. A little bit more comprehensive self-paced training would help."
"I have not had very positive experiences with tech support in the last year. I found them to be arrogant, rude, not solving my problems, and not interested in solving my problems."
"The solution could improve on integration, cloud services, and making the configuration less difficult."
"I would say it's not scalable, because we've had to move large applications that were in a shared environment to their own separate Dynatrace server instance."
"The web-based UI needs to be improved."
"I need more experience."
"Most of the time, chat support is not good enough for answering queries."
"The AI is not that intelligent and there are different places where it could be even more automated."
"It is needs to automate the actions to take when an alert is triggered."
""Events" reporting (errors, crashes, etc.) is not clear at all in a Mesos environment (i.e., it's not clear what specific container is the one that went down). In a Docker Compose environment, it may be way better."
