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

"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."
"The most valuable feature is the detailed statistics, like the consumer count, for the ActiveMQ server."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I don't see any problems in the solution...The solution's technical support was good."
"After installation of APM, we realized the value within five or ten minutes."
"The most valuable features are basically the customer experience that it provides, and the deep dive that it gives; the overall dashboards, and then the strength of the dashboards, so you get a single pane and can see across the platforms."
"Error analysis in the troubleshooting sections go straight to the point."
"We have cut our MTTR by half just by deploying agents."
"It is a good monitoring tool. Its stability is very good."
"Despite dozens of deployments across hundreds of applications- we have yet to see a case where AD is negatively impacting application execution or functionality."
 

Cons

"The dashboard needs improvement."
"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 setup, implementation and use are clumsy and need to be refined."
"I am not very impressed with support. The service could be better."
"One aspect that requires improvement is the agent. Without an agent, gathering sufficient information on applications is challenging."
"An area with room for improvement is the ease of managing the agents within our systems."
"AppDynamics Database Monitoring could improve the price of the solution, it is costly."
"However, we have a slight complexity where for infrastructure we have to go to one agent, for the database we have to go to one agent, and for the application we go to another agent."
"Unfortunately, the setup is quite expensive, which is the bad part of it because I want to spread my agent across the IT landscape, but that's very expensive."
"The integration part in AppDynamics with other systems is an area with a little difficulty, especially when it comes to the configuration area. The integration of AppDynamics with other products takes a lot of time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"For those who appreciate the value and had issues with the visibility of the performance of their applications, then the pricing is good. For somebody who does not need it, it can be pricey, but overall, it is worth the money which it costs."
"We buy the platform's yearly subscription."
"The pricing for AppDynamics is expensive, but it is possible to negotiate special pricing through bids."
"It is expensive. However, our time to recover has been reduced, and this product has helped recuperate costs and provided us with ROI."
"I was not involved with the procurement of AppDynamic, but I believe it's expensive."
"There is a license for the solution and we paid approximately $2,000. There is also an additional cost above the standard license which cost us approximately $3,000."
