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.

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.

Pros

"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."
"It was easy to set up."
"In AppDynamics, everywhere I go, there's some sort of grouping and aggregation function, or there's some sort of timeline that lets me zero in more quickly on the traces that I need. They go to more pains to aggregate and bubble the important ones to the top. That removes a lot of manual work."
"Error analysis in the troubleshooting sections go straight to the point."
"It was a game changer right out the door."
"Our organization revenue has doubled after the introduction of Splunk AppDynamics and other features."
"The product is easy to install, it took about half an hour. The use and the configurations are simple as well."
"It improves our organization by providing the right alerts, and there are so many parameters to choose from that it allows us to set the right level of alerting mechanism for approximately one hundred and twenty services."
"Capacity planning is, in my opinion, the most useful."
"With the benefits of pinpointing the issue quickly, we can get either our servers or our application up and running better."
 

Cons

"Very limited people are available with resource availability in this region, and they have limited knowledge."
"I do not have any notes for improvement."
"The dashboard needs improvement."
"When you have high stress of visits I do not know if you are more stress because of the amount of visits or because you have to wait eternal 60 seconds to find out it things are going well or you already have mess."
"The interface and user experience could be better."
"The main concern is the extensions and their documentation, particularly for the installation of Azure app services. It is lacking some documentation, which is why we are always with the AppDynamics team for support to get the details."
"It's a very expensive product. Each of the licenses after this month for one server is around $9,000 or $10,000."
"I heard it is not good. They do not provide a quick response."
"One of the things that I would like to see is a little bit more ease of use with regards to the analytics component."
"It'll be really good if they could retain the data a little bit better."
"Customer support takes time. Whenever we face any issues, we have to open the vendor case and then there will be back and forth happening."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing of the solution is reasonable for what features you receive."
"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."
"The pricing is very competitive."
"AppDynamics is more expensive than competitors."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring is a very expensive product, but if you negotiate well, you get value for money...My company used to make early payments toward the licensing costs of the solution, but now my company has opted for a different licensing model."
"There is no standard license instead, the license is adapted to the organization's requirements."
"The price of AppDynamics could be reduced in my region."
"This solution is not the cheapest but it works well. You will end up doing more work with a cheaper solution than if you just spent the extra money on a better solution like this one."
