Performance monitoring impacts operations with fast storage setup
Having eyes on performance for storage through the Analyzer is valuable for me. The Ops center from Hitachi lets us see all storage in one place, unlike Dell and EMC, where we work on one storage. The Analyzer and the Ops center provide a better solution. Before this, we used a CVP with slow performance. This solution works better than before. The visualization vector in the last version is something we have. It is easy to work with and add the storage type. There is no difficulty in adding it.

Has enabled us to detect issues instantly through alerts and monitor every service from a single dashboard
Splunk requires significantly more improvements compared to Splunk AppDynamics, specifically regarding the licensing aspect. Splunk renews licenses every six months, which is inconvenient. It would be better to have a one-year license to avoid needing to update keys constantly, which can only occur on weekends, making it a burdensome task. Although Splunk is better for certain use cases, Splunk AppDynamics is broader in functionality. Specifically, I want enhancements related to creating dashboards not only for logs or minor services but also for configuration levels, allowing us to check configurations immediately without manually opening the entire code when exceptions arise—a feature I wish to see improved in Splunk, although it may not be necessary for Splunk AppDynamics.

Pros

"The Ops center from Hitachi lets us see all storage in one place, unlike Dell and EMC, where we work on one storage."
"It was easy to set up."
"Having eyes on performance for storage through the Analyzer is valuable for me."
"It was easy to set up."
"I have found the main feature of the solution to be its ability to analyze an application's code to see where there are issues. Additionally, it is easy to use and configure."
"The alert mechanism in AppDynamics enhances server management tasks by using agents installed on each server."
"The flow map is very valuable to us. Before we installed APM, we had no idea how our application looked."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The solution helps us provide a better user experience to our customers."
"AppDynamics Browser Real-User Monitoring provides smooth connectivity to different applications."
"I have seen a return on investment with Splunk AppDynamics, as we are investing more and more for Splunk AppDynamics because we have many tools and many applications in our organization."
"What I like most about AppDynamics Server Monitoring is that it's easy to manipulate and easy to implement. All solutions have the same features, but what sets AppDynamics Server Monitoring apart is that it's really quick to implement. AppDynamics Server Monitoring has a great interface. As a developer, it doesn't matter whether it's SolarWinds, Dynatrace, or any APM you're using, but it would matter to the customer. A product must be easy to manipulate or use, for example, AppDynamics Server Monitoring, for the customer, but for developers like my team, there's no pressure, even if a solution requires coding."
 

Cons

"I do not have any notes for improvement."
"The dashboard needs improvement."
"Very limited people are available with resource availability in this region, and they have limited knowledge."
"The end-user experience is not really good because we can't catch all of the transactions. We only can catch the full stack of flow transactions, but I think that this is caused by the technology they use. If they will catch every transaction, it will cause a very big load on the performance of applications. The monitoring of all transactions needs improvement."
"AppDynamics' modules and hardware resources are very high."
"Their support should be improved. Clusters and monitoring can also be improved."
"Application Analytics' performance in pure and native cloud environments could be improved."
"The product’s dashboard could be more easy to implement."
"The user access management could be a bit better."
"As per my experience, the drill-down feature can be improved at the class level."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring could improve the price of the solution, it is costly."
