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.

Automates Azure resource monitoring and inventory management but slow with real-time patch status

There is room for improvement in the performance of the product. The main problem is with patch management. The actual problem we're facing is with the patch management feature. It's not real-time, which creates inconsistencies. The machine might say there are no updates available, while the OpsRamp agent reports that everything's patched. It's a mismatch. We recently started a new marketplace for clients where we manage patch management. We try to share knowledge with OpsRamp, but they don't have a rapid process for product enhancements. Our main pain point is the lack of engagement from the product team. If someone from OpsRamp could discuss our concerns, work on future enhancements, or even give us an estimated timeline (ETA), it would be a huge improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Gives me the ability to identify user browsers, user geographical location."

"It can give a quick overview of the current health status, end to end, and can quickly point to the root cause if there an issue or problem in one of our applications."

"I get valuable information like, for example, if a site is down. That's the key. I'm instantly getting a message, or even on the app, I can see if something overnight went down a few times, or it's not performing at 100%."

"The real-time monitoring, which we are getting, is amazing."

"I like the full-stack agents, the Oneagents, and the futures dynamic."

"We have improved performance by 50% and determined conflicts in the application to eliminate errors."

"The ability to drill down from an alert into a problem and pinpoint the source of an issue saves my client teams hours of time."

"Having a Dynatrace guardian onsite for our first two years helped with our user adoption."

More Dynatrace pros

"Predictive analysis is a valued feature."

"The most valuable features of OpsRamp include a single pane of glass, event correlation, personalized dashboards, and a single platform solution."

"The technical support is fantastic, and they are fast to respond."

"The most valuable feature of OpsRamp is the creation of the dashboards of the infrastructure for the CPU memory and SQL servers. Additionally, URL monitoring through Selenium scripting and the availability dashboard is useful."

"It is a pretty stable solution."

"We find the products seamless integration with Zendesk to be extremely valuable to our business."

"The feature we found most valuable in OpsRamp is alert generation because whenever there is any kind of spike on any virtual machine, the solution generates alerts based on the thresholds we implemented. We have integrated our ideas and tools with OpsRamp, so alerts are generated, then we notify the customers. That's the main feature we like about OpsRamp because we don't have to monitor each resource. Instead, OpsRamp does the monitoring for us, and it generates the alerts based on the thresholds."

"The most valuable feature of this solution in my experience, is that the available reporting is quite accurate."

More OpsRamp pros

Cons

"I would like to see an App store for plugins and extensions."

"UEM (User Experience Management) works great for web clients and Android and IOS apps, but for other rich clients it's a lot more challenging."

"It's not really user friendly. You need to go through a certain type of training."

"The dashboarding in Dynatrace is not very good. We have used other monitoring tools like AppDynamics. We are also using AppDynamics for some of our products. If I compare Dynatrace with those monitoring tools, the dashboarding is not as good. If I have to create a dashboard it takes me time, the experience is not that good."

"Definitely something to be improved is that OneAgent runs as a route, and not all applications want to run as route. Part of the problem is different technology companies will have various rules, regulations, and policies around what can run as a route."

"Whenever there is a new version the UI changes, it makes it hard to use, because we are accustomed to the old one."

"When the tool ingests data from other tools, being able to correlate those with the existing topology, so that the AI engine can draw more conclusions in case Dynatrace does not monitor those instances."

"There's no download action for the reports, so if they could add something like that, it would add value for us. We cannot save data for more than seven to 10 days, so it would be better to add a feature for downloading. At least we could store the data and then we could compare for ourselves, where we are starting and where we are and where we are heading. I would have those metrics."

More Dynatrace cons

"We would like this solution to be developed into a full CMP tool, so that we are able to use a single product for all of our cloud management needs."

"OpsRamp cannot be scaled for big and large company deployments."

"The user interface of this product requires some changes as it is not inclusively user-friendly. For example, the performance indicators are color-based , which means that they are confusing for anyone who is color blind."

"I would like to see two things. The first is a self-service portal for the cloud, any cloud deployments, and the second is maturity validation towards ITSM, internalizing OpsRamp TSM. As a result, instead of integrating with more mature tools similar to ServiceNow, people will use OpsRamp."

"OpsRamp could improve the critical alerts. We have been receiving some false alerts when monitoring. For example, the alert shows the site is down, but when we try to do manual access to the URL, it's accessible."

"What's lacking in OpsRamp is process automation, and if there is, I wish there could be more of it, other than just spikes, or it would be better if the alerts can be generated based on different matrices. That option is absent in OpsRamp at the moment, and it would be valuable if that could be provided in the solution, especially if there's any kind of security issue in the VM."

"The function to search any particular device within this solution needs to be improved. Currently, the solution develops a lag when a search, or a comparison, is being carried out."

"OpsRamp had shortcomings associated with its network capabilities."

More OpsRamp cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price range is quite high."

"Everything is great, but the licensing could always be cheaper. With the every growing tool set of Ops teams, we find it harder to budget for tooling while ensuring we still have the proper insight into our applications."

"I think that the price is reasonable."

"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."

"Its licensing is complicated or not transparent."

"Pricing is still too expensive."

"You get a really well-planned out monitoring suite for the money spent."

"Pricing can be high, especially for Portuguese standards. But as one says, you get what you pay for."

More Dynatrace pricing and cost advice

"I don't have any idea about the licensing cost for OpsRamp, but I just know that its pricing is based on the resource count for each tenant."

"OpsRamp is a cost-effective solution."

"There is an annual licensing fee to use OpsRamp."

"You pay it for a year and you'll have full access to the entire platform, not only for monitoring and alerting, you will have access to the entire platform, and whatever technology they develop will be made available to you."
