We performed a comparison between Dynatrace and Zabbix 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."The ability to create any dashboard that you want for different levels of reporting for technical people, managers, or even executive level. They can get a one page view of what the system health and performance looks like."
"PurePaths help us drill down to the root cause of problems and escape the war room."
"We have drastically reduced the delay taken by the diagnostic phase. As we identify the root cause very rapidly, we can now focus on the solution and communication."
"It is a platform that is very well-suited for marketers, but also for technology people. That is the key: the dashboard."
"By using Dynatrace Managed, we have improved customer satisfaction and have also helped internal teams and subcontractors make the application more stable."
"We use it, in many instances, to find the root cause in production."
"The Dynatrace solution has an important role in optimizing application code and SQL queries for customer solutions."
"From a diagnosing standpoint, it has been a game changer. Before, we did not have monitoring, so anytime there was an issue, it was just guess-and-check."
"The flexible licensing model is one of the solution's most valuable aspects. It really allows for great flexibility for companies."
"The flexibility of this solution is amazing."
"Zabbix is quite stable once it is set up. We haven't had any post-setup issues."
"The initial setup was not complex."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides network segregation for server monitoring."
"SNMP monitoring, source discovery, and alert triggering are most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is service assurance."
"They've already added extra features, such as noise-canceling and facial recognition, which is great."
"Sometimes we have issues with the code on their side. We like to get it fixed."
"Possibly include some network monitoring capabilities."
"I'd like to see more agents ready to be deployed. I know that it's possible to develop integration with Dynatrace API, but in day-to-day operations it's hard to do that kind of customization. So if they had more agents for more platforms and more applications, I think it would be better."
"We do not have any web monitoring with Dynatrace."
"We would like the AI to produce more scientific data with less configuration."
"I would love to see a better data export, because AppMon's charting capabilities leaves a lot to be desired. You have about a 5,000 line limit. I would really like to see the ability to export, in Dynatrace and AppMon, in essentially in a nice format of whatever you want to whatever else."
"Either use less system resources and be faster or use more resources to pre-compute the PurePath on recent X minutes of data"
"It requires manual intervention to uninstall the cloud agent from servers you want it removed from."
"We would like to monitor other touchpoints such as ATM machines. It would be great if it can provide monitoring of ATM machines. Compatibility with other products would also be great."
"In an upcoming release, there should be automated reports which we are currently doing manually. For example, if we collect a report file every day and want to send it to a moderator for review. We are expecting this feature to come out soon but it would be valuable to have now."
"The dashboard and the graph section could be a little bit more professional."
"The documentation could be improved."
"I would like for this solution to be more cloud-friendly."
"Documentation terminology could be improved."
"When we have a problem, we have to do a lot of research to solve it."
"Correlation of events would be a wonderful addition."
