We have reached maximum capacity in our tier, and extending capacity has not been cost-effective from Splunk's perspective.
We have tried it with a maximum of 500 concurrent users, and it provided all the required information.
I did not find any Docker solution available with it, and a separate instance has to be installed.

Sentiment score
7.7
Splunk AppDynamics is praised for stability and reliability, with minor issues efficiently resolved, ensuring user satisfaction across environments.
It is necessary to conduct appropriate testing before deploying them in production to prevent potential outages.
I can rate it nine out of ten.
 

Room For Improvement

Evanios needs better alert management, integration, and cost efficiency, leading users to consider alternatives like PagerDuty for added features.
The Splunk AppDynamics UI is complex, lacking mobile support and integration ease, with network visibility and documentation issues.
Splunk AppDynamics does not support the complete MELT framework, which includes metrics, events, logging, and tracing for the entire stack.
If AppDynamics could develop a means to monitor without an agent, it could significantly improve application performance and reduce potential problems.
It is lacking some documentation, which is why we are always with the AppDynamics team for support to get the details.
 

Setup Cost

AppDynamics is costly but valuable, requiring careful assessment and negotiation for better pricing compared to alternatives like Dynatrace or Datadog.
All these solutions at the moment are cheap, but it is like paying for insurance; you pay insurance to avoid major damage.
We find its pricing reasonable and competitive.
Customers have to pay a premium price, however, they receive considerable value from the product.
 

Valuable Features

Evanios offers powerful, flexible event processing with seamless ServiceNow integration, user-friendly rule types, and adaptable JavaScript manipulation.
Splunk AppDynamics users appreciate its easy interface and features for performance monitoring, real-time alerts, and detailed diagnostics.
I work with the AI-powered anomaly detection and root cause analysis for troubleshooting. Users can see the error and the message with the error on the dashboard, and they can see exactly what error they are encountering.
What I like the most about Splunk AppDynamics is the end-to-end observability for the application, along with traces.
The feature that I appreciate in AppDynamics Browser Real-User Monitoring is the intuitive and user-friendly dynamic mapping it creates for workflows.

Featured Reviews

it_user592602 - PeerSpot reviewer
The vendor is willing to work with us and develop solutions for products they did not already have an integration for.
As with any new software implementation, during the integration we found a couple of minor issues when integrating certain products (such as SCOM). However, each time this happened Evanios was very quick to identify the bug we were seeing, patch it and provide the new update set for us to install. Also, during the evaluation of Evanios we found that they already had integrations with most of our larger monitoring tools, however they also stated that they would be able to create update sets to integrate certain products we used that they did not currently support. This proved to be very valuable for us because they were able to become an even better fit for our organization by creating update sets\integrations for PRTG, Quest Foglight, TIBCO and Thousand Eyes as well.
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.
