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.
Sathis-Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
The single-agent format is easy to use and accurately captures issues
We are currently migrating from AppDynamics to the solution. AppDynamics is moving toward a fast model and has a few issues with vendor support. It also requires multiple agents for each function. For example, a Java-related APM requires the installation of another agent. The solution is a bit higher priced than AppDynamics but is more user friendly and only requires one agent, so our application teams prefer it.

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 speed and problem resolution."
"It has improved our critical incident response, exposing critical issues impacting the environment and our ability to respond to those events prior to client impact as well as resolving those events more quickly. We have use cases where we have studied a 70 percent improvement for response times in an occurring event as well as future reoccurrences being improved."
"It helps us get to the resolution quicker, and potentially the root cause, and at least understand what is happening for future identification."
"We are using Dynatrace for prediction and staging for every step of our development cycle."
"It has enabled us to have a deeper insight into our application availability and performance."
"Given the full-stack approach, you are able to view from the end user perspective, almost down to the bare metal."
"Helps us to shorten down the time for triaging an issue."
"No other provider gives us log ingestion, Kubernetes/Docker monitoring, and application monitoring for NodeJS."
 

Cons

"They can improve on providing "help and navigation" for each feature available in the UI."
"On the one hand we have Dynatrace, on the other hand, we have AppMon. We know Dynatrace is more powerful, with a lot of functions, but there are some core functions AppMon has that Dynatrace needs. Our main use is AppMon and we have not gone to Dynatrace because we don't have those specific functions that we need."
"It is necessary to improve the integration with the product, Oracle Siebel."
"AppMon is lacking the AI that can be found in Dynatrace Managed."
"It can be improved in narrowing the exact exception/ERROR in application monitoring."
"We would like the AI to produce more scientific data with less configuration."
"We have had problems with our middle layer application implementation."
"We should be able to easily simplify both the charting and slicing-and-dicing of user metrics with cookies that contain customer/user information."
"It could be more affordable and therefore, more widely used by including more features like DEM as part of licensing cost rather than an additional expense."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Just go with Dynatrace. Just start with Dynatrace. Do not go into AppMon. Start with Dynatrace, because AppMon is going to give you so much extra stuff that 99% of your user base will not need it, including yourself."
"The setup costs for Dynatrace are low, however licensing costs are high."
"Setup cost is very low considering that it is an almost totally, automatic process."
"The licensing for Dynatrace is high. If you want to go for monitoring solutions, then why Dynatrace? If you have a particular budget, you can go for many other monitoring tools - apart from Dynatrace - and they can help you more and give more data than Dynatrace can. It's not worth the money that you spend for Dynatrace."
"Surprisingly, it is quite expensive. That is something that we could always see: Improved pricing and the overall construct on how do we use each license in regards to usage of the tool."
"Look at the product and the product features, not the price. Too often people look at the price and turn away. Dynatrace costs a little bit more than the other products I researched, but it can do far more.​"
"Always gives good ROI and total cost of ownership."
"The product is superior to others, but it comes with a price tag that is often difficult to position back to clients."
