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."
"Dynatrace alerts are based on deviations from the reference metrics which are constantly collected."
"Real time monitoring helps reduce downtime. It saves a lot of time in determining what is the likely cause of an issue an end user may be experiencing."
"Reduces troubleshooting time by finding problems before the system is launched."
"I like the auto email alerting feature the most, as it is set up based on the application error or condition."
"Transparency and visibility into application performance, errors, incidents, etc. helps to foster a collaborative environment."
"UEM can be used for user impact analysis and troubleshooting."
"We like the on-premises platform and the horizontal scalability."
"The most valuable feature is, I can quickly go to the PurePath and find the problem in the application. I can say that it provides me a way by which I can quickly find the root cause of the problem."
"There are certain aspects of the configuration that could be simplified a bit."
"Right now, for AppMon, the maximum handling load, the transaction per minute, is around 6,500. We had an issue on Black Friday or Cyber Monday, some kind of stability issue for users who could not log in. I want to see an increase in the load, at least to 7,000 or 8,000 transactions per second"
"Waiting for the session replay needs improvement."
"The configuration of this solution is quite complex."
"There are a couple gaps in the network reporting that we would like to see cleared up a bit."
"We have had problems with our middle layer application implementation."
"I have not had very positive experiences with tech support in the last year. I found them to be arrogant, rude, not solving my problems, and not interested in solving my problems."
"I would say that this solution's reports are lacking a little bit, and because of this, you have to rely on API to fetch and pull data. I think they could have done a bit of a better job by providing a more user-friendly search from a reporting perspective."
"Scalability-wise, on the data side, I'm really worried because they are giving only seven days data retention. They should plan something on that, to increase the data."
