Good capabilities, has a helpful interface and is straightforward to set up
We have asked for a couple of features from the company already. What typically happens is a lot of people - and developers are one of the biggest consumers of this product - go to this product to optimize their investigation process and specific configurations. That increases our data flow at times, so the cost changes. And a lot of changes happen due to that. We have asked the company to auto-revert the changes after a while so that the system works typically. We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.
Muhammad Zeeshan Siddiqui - PeerSpot reviewer
Dynamic mapping enhances workflows that are user-friendly
One aspect that requires improvement is the agent. Without an agent, gathering sufficient information on applications is challenging. Additionally, the agent sometimes creates performance issues in production environments. If AppDynamics could develop a means to monitor without an agent, it could significantly improve application performance and reduce potential problems. Moving to an agentless solution, like what some competitors are doing, would be beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"The solution offers great visibility that allows you to track where errors originated."
"The auto-discovery of the logs is the most valuable feature. It requires minimal configuration, we just need to set up on once and it automatically detects through the code."
"Applications: This provides us insight into how our applications are performing within our environments and affords us the ability to identify opportunities and make changes to code / environment to effect positive performance lift."
"The product is stable and the technical support is good."
"The flow map is very valuable to us. Before we installed APM, we had no idea how our application looked."
"The feature that is most valuable to us is the snapshot feature. It allows us to get a snapshot of different SQL scripts that are being executed simultaneously and we can identify everything we need on them."
"The business transaction that stands between multiple applications is proving to be most valuable."
"The most valuable feature in AppDynamics is the identifying of the slow responses. Additionally, it is easy to use."
 

Cons

"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"This solution is expensive."
"The solution could be more mobile friendly."
"The dashboard can be better. Also, the automated reports could be improved."
"The integration with cloud services is still pending with AppDynamics. We would like the product to be serverless."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"If AppDynamics could do a one-agent function with their actual monitoring effectiveness, it will be the greatest tool."
"If it can be able to intelligently provide all the things we need to look at, from a data point of view, that would be very useful."
"Improvements can be made in the area of AI integration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"The solution is highly expensive"
"It is not a cheap tool, but you also save in manpower to setup because it is easy and fast. At the end of the day, I think the revenue is much better. BUT, they have an awful co-term mode of licensing."
"It would be better if there were more solutions incorporated into the base price. ​"
"The way it is structured in terms of price could be better. You pay for individual modules and that adds on to the cost, which detracts you from implementing those modules and slows you down."
"There is a license to use this solution. However, the clients pay for the licenses we are the service provider."
"The solution has a high cost."
"AppDynamics is an expensive solution."
"There is no standard license instead, the license is adapted to the organization's requirements."
