Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The initial setup was fairly easy."
"We obtained a better insight into our environment and consolidated a lot of our old apps into one app."
"A monitoring system that can show us code level details."
"Everybody can show charts and metrics, but Dynatrace’s infographics are amazing. The dashboarding is simply best in class."
"It has enabled us to have a deeper insight into our application availability and performance."
"This solution has helped us to improve application performance and reduce issue-impact with faster resolutions."
"The primary use case is to monitor all our applications. We want a single place where we can monitor all our applications that we are building. Therefore, if something goes wrong, we immediately can find out what went wrong."
"RCA (Root Cause Analysis) and the PurePaths, where you can see the stack trace, are helpful in finding problems."
"It helps to show where the problem is and isolates the issue."
"There are certain aspects of the configuration that could be simplified a bit."
"Dashboarding and having different templates available for more business reporting, or even other metrics, would be useful."
"The dashboard tool needs to be improved. We need more options, because the look and feel is too old-fashioned."
"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."
"Make the Web UI more robust. Last time I used the web interface, it was still pretty crude."
"For the manage services, they work on CloudWatch logs and are given CloudWatch logs only. I would like more collaboration with AWS and insight into CloudWatch services. This would be valuable, especially when detecting the fault of the root cause analysis. It would make the process go faster."
"It needs certain UI changes to make going back to certain Windows easier. Certain windows open up in a different category with different set values and throw you off if you are not used to it."
"Cloud monitoring is insufficient. We would prefer Dynatrace to make more partnerships with major cloud applications like Salesforce, C4C, etc."
"I would like better plugin support, because they are constantly asking us to do plugins, saying "Yeah, we can do that. Use this plugin." Then, the moment something goes wrong with that plugin, I have no way of getting help."
