We performed a comparison between AppDynamics and eG Enterprise 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."I like how the AppDynamics dashboard portrays the information flows. When a task is executed, various flows between different applications and databases happen in the background. The dashboard is intuitive and helps visualize the connections, the directions of the flow, and the information related to these specific sessions."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to take a report, and in particular, a visual, and link it to actual application performance and then the consequences. This means you can show how an incident or action has an effect on the business."
"The flow map is very valuable to us. Before we installed APM, we had no idea how our application looked."
"We previously had an operations team continuously monitoring applications. Now, they just have set things up and our developers can monitor, view, and act on them, accordingly."
"It is easy to gain visibility into complex environments with AppDynamics. It has the ability to combine operation information of the environment and business information with strong business IQ support."
"The release management capabilities are great."
"The solution saves time and cost."
"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."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"The product is simple to use."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"The integration ability of AppDynamics with other performance testing tools is an area with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The solution could improve by covering more technologies. For example, it does support .NET Core applications. However, it could be a bit better."
"If AppDynamics could do a one-agent function with their actual monitoring effectiveness, it will be the greatest tool."
"While it is scalable, it could be better."
"We would love to see support for more types of agents in the mainframe world."
"AppDynamics scaled well up to around 3,000 agents. The performance deteriorated after that, while Dynatrace could support more than 10,000 agents. We were surprised that AppDynamics' scalability is not so good."
"It could do with more than one data centre/multiple AWS accounts in a pane of glass. Also, improved scalability to large environments would be helpful."
"The training on the dashboards that is provided could be a little bit better, as could the use cases. They should have some good examples out there. As it is right now, I had to scour YouTube to find some stuff."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
