Utilize artificial intelligence for faster issue response and seamless ITSM integration
The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features. These capabilities help us gather more information and analyze it faster, leading to better responses to issues. The tool is also excellent at integrating with ITSM services, providing a seamless alerting system for our customers.

Real-time monitoring has improved our banking API performance and supports detailed business transaction analysis
The real-time monitoring is what we can see for anything that is needed in terms of CPU, memory, or the connections or the sessions related. It's real-time monitoring of performance of each of the components, which is what we need and use all the time. It's highly effective, I would say. Infrastructure visibility, transaction monitoring, to check the actual user experience in terms of the response time, MRT and all those things. We do the component monitoring like the API performance and the connections and all those things, but we also do the business process monitoring and business transaction monitoring.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"User session details"
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"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 product is simple to use."
"The best feature of AppDynamics is the analytics, which gives us the business insights of the application."
"Provides good overall application performance and transaction errors."
"In 2014 and 2015, AppDynamics was one of the best products on the market."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring's dashboarding is its best feature."
"You have a live view of what happens when something goes wrong on the production or support side. You don't have to scramble and do guesswork. We can identify the query that creates the bottleneck or slows the performance of the database system. It can give you points on how to debug and fix the system."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring's most valuable feature is the ability of the out-of-the-box to update the information, provide various metrics, and possibly include custom metrics."
"I find troubleshooting is quicker because we can drill down into the end points and see which endpoints are getting critical. Visibility-wise, the micro details are easy to find."
"I rate Splunk AppDynamics 10 out of 10."
 

Cons

"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"The integration must be improved."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"The solution's pricing could be improved and made more competitive."
"The documentation and training material have room for improvement."
"AppDynamics's agent management could be improved."
"While it is scalable, it could be better."
"Splunk AppDynamics could improve their installation process, which would be an incredible thing on Splunk AppDynamics' side."
"I would like to see more artificial intelligence and machine learning brought in to monitor the statement and payment sum issues we have."
"Sometimes, while fetching details, Splunk AppDynamics provides answers within a minute, but it can occasionally take seven or eight minutes, which can be problematic when time is limited."
"If I consider what can be improved in Splunk AppDynamics, I would point out that it could enhance its reporting capabilities, as it remains very technical."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is very cheap."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
"It is not expensive."
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"You may get some monitoring products with certain licensing you may own. Some of these can take ages to configure and setup, along with needing a license to drive the software."
"They gave us a good price, when they were found out we were looking at other products because their price was very high. We were looking at another solution, then we came back to them was because they brought the price down. We selected them for three years."
"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."
"As compared to other applications, its price is moderate. Its price is neither very high nor very low."
"I give the price a five out of ten."
"Yearly payments have to be made toward the licensing costs of the solution. The solution has no additional costs apart from the licensing costs."
"The pricing is very competitive."
"It could be a bit lower, but looking at the scalability, functionality, and other things, you can understand why AppDynamics is so expensive as compared to some of the cheaper products that don't have that full single pane of glass they've got. Dynatrace has got three different elements that you need to log into just to get a full view, which is not so good, and because of that, it is a bit cheaper."
"I rate AppDynamics Mobile Real-User Monitoring's pricing as seven out of ten. Mobile monitoring is paid based on the number of instances utilizing the mobile monitoring service, which increases as the scale grows. Consequently, your mobile user count can proportionally surpass all other applications."
"The tool is expensive."
