Skeptical at first and now speechless and client ecstatic!

Reviewed 5 years ago

One platform that allows you to view key metrics of any "online store/service" in one pane. In a digital economy now and more people embracing the "cloud", which comes at a premium......it's great to be able to "see" in real time not only your infrastructure performance but the performance of the users and the apps and allows you know EXACTLY where the change is needed. Which gives organizations the option of freeing up staff, thus freeing up "salary" and putting it back in their bottom line.

Pros

Single pane viewing of what matters most. Simple click of a button and I can view infrastructure response, user "click thru" i.e. completes to weekly/monthly reporting taking only minutes instead of hours or days. We were able to view what percentage of users visited/clicked thru with device and time of day and able to see their drop point. Immediately saw a trend and got our app team on it and saw almost immediate uptick in customer completes/orders. What sold me was the agentless monitoring of the databases so we could actully see in real time what days/times we needed to apply additional CPU resources.

Cons

I guess I really can't state a "plausible" con......the software goes above and beyond what we had envisioned and actually made everyone's duties easier to complete which we were able to turn reports and analytics around quicker.......so if I had to complain about something.....maybe the price??? But isn't always about "price".

This tool is amazing in terms of performance bottleneck analysis and user friendliness

Reviewed 6 years ago

Integration with load runner

Pros

The good thing about the tools is its integration with the load runner tool for performance testing We can get the exact method and class names from the code which helps in finding the bottleneck

Cons

Some flex calls cannot be captured with the appdynamics so cannot be used for the flex coded developed applications. Extra license cost for the database monitoring can be more structured

AppDynamics - Monitor your traffic

Reviewed a year ago

I have been using AppD for little over a year now. It shows a great map of servers and databases, provide your the flow from where the transaction traffic is moving to which side. Provides periodic details on server health, disk usage, memory leak, Network and Disk I/O, CPU utilization etc. It generates logs to very minute level, which makes things hassle free when it comes to RCA an issue. It also keeps you up to date with respect to the top process classes which are consuming CPU and Memory. It is one of the best application monitoring tool. Highly recommended.

Pros

1. Real time monitoring of your servers, databases. 2. Provide in depth details on which process classes are consuming the memory. 3. Continuous alerts on servers and data bases. 4. Transaction trace. 5. Server Health, Disk Usage, Network I/O, Disk I/O. 6. Server logs available to RCA issues. 7. Transaction and Traffic reports can be customized as per need basis. 8. Best part is the Map Flow.

Cons

Nothing much to add except the cost. Its a little expensive.

AppDynamics is an excellent application performance monitoring and management tool

Reviewed 3 months ago

Its real-time monitoring, intelligent analytics, and user-friendly interface make it a must-have tool for any business looking to improve the performance of their applications.

Pros

AppDynamics provides real time monitoring. It is very useful for real-time visibility into application performance. We can quickly identify and resolve issues before they impact end-users. It is highly customizable and we can customize based on specific requirements and needs. We can also create custom alerts and dashboards as per requirments. AppDynamics is easy to use, with an intuitive interface and easy-to-understand charts and graphs that make it accessible even to non-technical users.

Cons

It is a great tool but little expensive to use. Somewhat complex to setup and configure and may require technical expertise. AppDynamics requires significant computing resources, including memory and CPU, which can impact performance on smaller systems.

Its a great tool to capture the performance

Reviewed 6 years ago

performance metrics, alerting and notifications

Pros

auto detection of environment connectivity, I don't have to do anything to configure my connection patterns which is amazing

Cons

none as of now, the only thing I could think is the cost, other than that we should check on integration with ticketing tools
