Improves our application at the code level because of its different performance metrics
They should provide all the information of the NetDiagnostics tool details on the Internet. Or, it will be good if they could upload the configuration and monitoring feature detail videos on YouTube . REST API should be supported from the UI. As of now, it is supported from the CLI . They can improve on providing "help and navigation" for each feature available in the UI. In next release, I would like to see the application level monitor supported in some way.
Anand_Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides a comprehensive view by integrating with other monitoring systems
There may be an issue since there are many tools like Splunk involved in network monitoring. From an IP perspective, Dynatrace is performing well. If they want to develop in network monitoring, they can, as it's part of their product line. It's not rocketry, so they can accomplish it. If I, as an SI, look at it from an enterprise perspective, considering the cost from the client, I prefer not to go with multiple systems, as they don't provide a complete 360-degree view. They need to improve on claims about being an enterprise system. The definition of enterprise is loosely used, however, from a holistic security perspective, including infrastructure, network, ports, software, applications, transactions, and databases, there are areas lacking, especially in network monitoring tools.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Its end-to-end dashboard provides information on all the integration callouts happening on the server side."
"The vendor team who did the setup was very good. They sent a very skillful resource for the setup."
"I think with Dynatrace, it has helped to bring value to the business because now we can speak using the same language."
"The solution is amazing, it does well when you need to use it."
"The most valuable feature is the beautiful UI."
"Dynatrace positively impacts my organization in various ways."
"The most valuable feature is that we can see every database call executed from Java applications."
"It prevents (together with performance testing) production performance issues which usually result in customer complaints or system downtime."
"The most valuable feature is, I can quickly go to the PurePath and find the problem in the application. I can say that it provides me a way by which I can quickly find the root cause of the problem."
 

Cons

"They can improve on providing "help and navigation" for each feature available in the UI."
"AppMon is lacking the AI that can be found in Dynatrace Managed."
"Ease of use could be improved because it can be hard to determine how you made it to the screen you are on and how to get back to it later."
"The problem evaluation feature is an awesome idea, but bit difficult to pick up initially."
"The customer support is not quick and helpful at this stage. We are deploying Dynatrace into our network. I've raised a couple of technical questions with the support team but the response was not fast and didn't cover all my questions at all."
"Training is required for all of the people who will be using it, and this should not be overlooked. I would even recommend nominating an SME in each of the three areas covered: user behaviour analysis, development, and infrastructure/operations support."
"I think scalability is what we're struggling with. I would say it's okay, but there's a little bit of room for improvement."
"There are a couple gaps in the network reporting that we would like to see cleared up a bit."
"One thing I'm missing and that is the JMX from the MBeans, it's missing completely."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing and licensing are very expensive."
"The price could be improved."
"Dynatrace is bit costly and not easily affordable."
"Purchasing through the AWS Marketplace was a pretty straightforward process. We had no hiccups."
"We found a tool that can be utilized by testing, DevOps, marketing, software engineering, and monitoring. Before, we always had everybody doing their own thing. Now, everybody's utilizing one tool, which is huge. That is a huge savings."
"​I would recommend doing a PoC."
"This is an expensive solution, but it is also worth the money."
"We are buying more licenses, because we are seeing more value."
