Dashboards facilitate prompt alerts but discovery feature needs enhancement
I would recommend Broadcom DX Application Performance Management if a customer doesn't have any existing performance solution. However, ten years ago, the solution was better, and now there are many competitive options. My overall rating would be between six and seven. The product rating I would give is 6.5 out of 10.

Provides you with powerful analysis of your network and business infrastructure
There are instances of imitation, like with processors. As customers, we aim to develop this area, particularly focusing on the networking facility and connectivity. The challenge lies in the connection between the DC and MDR, which is quite distant. The link between them needs to be reliable. When direct fiber isn't available, they resort to using dark fiber, which can lead to some limitations. This situation presents another layer of complexity, requiring approximately 11 feet of additional infrastructure. This is essential for ensuring that applications have minimal latency. In the event of any issues, an account is set up for cache memory to ensure that the system remains operational and can recover data from the cache as needed. Additionally, I have a secondary aspect to consider.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"For the most part, we run constantly without any issue at this point because of APM.​"
"Most valuable features and characteristics for me are: Quick setup and good out-of-the-box value provided, usable interface and navigation, variety and value of the provided metrics, qualified and motivated support services, and customization options as you can monitor almost everything with EPAgents."
"Operations are able to view the performance of their applications and the real-user experience in business transactions, all through a single solution, CA Application Performance Management."
"Detailed alert settings give more control on when they should or should not appear."
"I had a 25% reduction in defects and 37% reduction in transaction response time, as well as a nearly 100% increase in the number of transactions occurring on a daily basis."
"For a person with a little bit of technical knowledge it is the best tool on the market to enhance application performance."
"We make custom dashboards for our development areas so they can understand how busy traffic affects their application with traffic. They can see how traffic directly affects their application in positive or negative ways."
"Mainly, I think it's the amount of knowledge that it provides to the application team; it's vast."
"ORUEI lets you create a dashboard that shows you insight into the user experience."
"The availability of the solution is its most valuable aspect. I can also Google anything I want and upload it on the cloud. I can do that using the mobile app. It is very helpful."
"Even if you don't have a QA tool, you can automate a lot of the quality assurance functions through ORUEI."
"The customers requires redundancy work to achieve a 99.999% uptime. To accomplish this, we installed this solution into storage. This setup ensures that if one node goes down, the system remains operational through another node. So that's the core aspect of the setup. Additionally, the schedule and the rental database run on servers, and behind these servers, we have storage. This storage operates as a single storage cluster, although there might be another storage option that costs around $30."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to Drill down to webpage actions."
"Customer satisfaction higher than before."
"Before RUEI came in, the users from production took hours to resolve issues, or couldn't end up finding a root cause."
 

Cons

"The main issue with scalability is, however, that there's a lot of overhead required to keep it expanding."
"It needs to work on the mobility and the digital aspects, as they are currently getting merged in today’s scenario."
"Improve the targeting interface is to make it more user-friendly and current."
"When we made the upgrade to 10.3 we have some problems with the new version."
"Customer Service: CA support responds well but solution delivery is not at par."
"Some of which are the inability to manage multiple hosts at the same time, configure agents in an easy fashion."
"The pricing and licensing costs are too high."
"We are constantly adding new technologies to our stack and monitoring those is sometimes a pain because CA APM does not support some of these out of the box."
"It is a bit complex for newbie."
"There are instances of imitation, like with processors. As customers, we aim to develop this area, particularly focusing on the networking facility and connectivity. The challenge lies in the connection between the DC and MDR, which is quite distant. The link between them needs to be reliable. When direct fiber isn't available, they resort to using dark fiber, which can lead to some limitations.

In the event of any issues, an account is set up for cache memory to ensure that the system remains operational and can recover data from the cache as needed. Additionally, I have a secondary aspect to consider."
"Currently, it monitors web applications well, but ORUEI doesn't monitor mobile applications yet. It would be nice if they also added the ability to monitor mobile apps."
"It would be nice if the solution could be integrated with Outlook. If I'm signing any quotation, any proposal, or any of my communications, I should be able to update that Oracle application as well."
"Licensing is very expensive for this solution."
"The application resource usage has increased due to using RUEI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"All discounts are case by case to accommodate the client's budgets."
"Dynatrace is the most expensive of these tools followed by AppDynamics which is "medium-expensive." CA APM is a bit lower in price than either Dynatrace or AppDynanics... In my opinion, if you can afford it, go for AppDynamics instead of CA APM."
"The license for Broadcom DX Application Performance Management is annual. The licensing model could improve because there is not any limit to deploying the agent, there should be some limits on it."
"Negotiate a lot, but do not forget to buy the product because it is worth it."
"Althougth it is a bit expensive, it is really worth it"
"The licensing costs are expensive."
"There is some research needed to determine licensing costs, based on the number of DataPower instances for the Nastel agent, for example."
"I'm unable to give information on Broadcom DX Application Performance Management licensing costs, but all Application Performance Management products have expensive pricing. This means that it's not only Broadcom that's expensive, and it would be an advantage if the cost would be a little bit cheaper."
