"Application Analytics' most valuable features are the real-user monitoring and the agents installed in the software stack on the application server."
"Provides good overall application performance and transaction errors."
"Immediately allows you to see the relationships between the different nodes."
"It's pretty stable."
"We had no issues with scalability. It was very good for us."
"The logs on the solution are excellent."
"Ease of correlation, creating correlation searches are easy and you can combine multiple sources with little effort"
"We have a more secure, robust environment, which keeps the harmful software out of the zone required."
"The ability to rapidly diagnose problems in production and non-production, across hundreds of log files, is the most valuable feature."
"The correlation searches are most valuable just because we are able to do things like RBA."
"Our clients are easily able to modify and evolve their implementations."
"I am satisfied with the support."
"You can use it to gather syslog messages from anything."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"This feature needs to be properly described to a client, and then the client needs to have a use case. There are some clients which do not need it and some clients who do. It is not for everyone and is dependant on their use case."
"The user experience is quite confusing. There are too many different development stages. The UI is not very intuitive."
"This is an expensive solution."
"Application Analytics' performance in pure and native cloud environments could be improved."
"Customization requires a few manual tweaks."
"The challenge in the installation is that you have to configure a lot of things manually. The way you install and configure it is not straightforward."
"An improved user interface along with multi-tenancy support would be beneficial."
"Previously, they developed custom connectors or add-ons for a lot of applications. But that number can be upgraded still. There are a lot of applications in the world that are not supported."
"Deployment is not difficult but the lock sources and configurations can take time."
"We find that the maintenance process could be a lot better."
"One issue is that we are getting a lot of false positives. We are trying to reduce them by customizing the default rules, changing thresholds, and using white-listing and black-listing. It's getting better and better as a result. But they need to build components that would reduce the false positives."
"It's difficult to set up initially, and their billing model is also a bit complicated."
"The ingestion happens quickly, so you can run up the data costs if you use the default settings. It isn't a problem for government agencies in the Saudi market, but many of the corporations in India are small or medium-sized enterprises that cannot afford that kind of ingestion system."
"Its search or filtering capability is nice, but it can be improved. It is currently a bit complicated, and it should be simplified. If we can write the search filter in a more simplified way, it would be better."
