We performed a comparison between AppDynamics and ManageEngine Applications Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."AppDynamics makes it much easier for us to detect problems or issues before they become problems. We have alerting on all of our business transactions."
"We set up alerts recently so we can fix any issues more quickly in production."
"It provides everything into one view, so we can track information from one place to another."
"It allows us to configure health rules so that we can, based on our own experience, determine when an application is behaving incorrectly."
"The most valuable feature in AppDynamics is the identifying of the slow responses. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"AppDynamics' most valuable features are the response time of the business transaction modules, the ability to monitor multiple services, and testing and developing environments."
"AppDynamics has been stable."
"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is that you can easily determine the load on the application."
"I am impressed with the tool's reporting feature which is simple."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
"The initial setup was straightforward, without complexity."
"The feature that I have found most valuable in ManageEngine Applications Manager is its dashboard."
"ITSM is a valuable feature, it complies with the requirements in Pakistan."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes."
"We do not have pricing constraints as an organization, because we do have reservations about ManageEngine being functionally scalable."
"Its price and the flexibility to deploy are the most valuable. Flexibility is very important, and you can scale from very basic to more complex. This solution is a part of a complete suite of management tools. So, it can be integrated with other solutions for monitoring networks, which is very important. You can expand it or interconnect it with many other tools, which is a powerful feature. We have a very good and long relationship with ManageEngine support guys. They provide very good support for us."
"It needs strengthening in the database tiers."
"We have had downtime, which has been the result of config, application, or cord issues."
"There are many KPIs that are not available in AppDynamics."
"The integration part in AppDynamics with other systems is an area with a little difficulty, especially when it comes to the configuration area. The integration of AppDynamics with other products takes a lot of time."
"Needs more integration with applications suites, like Oracle Enterprise Server or BMC Remedy."
"The GUI can be overwhelming at first to a novice Dev or Ops support person, and the possible root causes of an issue do not bubble up to the first screen you see."
"In the current version of AppDynamics, there is a correlated section, where we can see all servers’ performance along with application performance, but network performance is missing."
"If it can be able to intelligently provide all the things we need to look at, from a data point of view, that would be very useful."
"The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide."
"The agent often crashes when there is too much load on the application side. If a sudden storm of data comes in, the agent crashes down most of the time."
"Even with the top-notch dashboard, it could be made stronger in order to have an additional plug-in for analytics."
"The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work."
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
"An area for improvement in ManageEngine Applications Manager is artificial intelligence. If AI is integrated into the solution, it'll be a piece of cake. Currently, it's all configured manually."
"The problem is that implementation requires a significant amount of mapping effort."
"They can improve the post-processing of the data. AppDynamics has more powerful tools for post-processing or analytics. It has some limitations in more complex environments, but because we are free to use different solutions, we try to find what is best for the customers or the problem we are trying to solve."
