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.

Automation and custom reporting impress while support resolution needs improvement
Workspace ONE Intelligence comes under a separate cost if you purchase UEM, making it a useful tool. The current features available in Workspace ONE Intelligence meet all use cases, so there isn't currently a need for improvement. Support could be improved for Workspace, especially the technical part, and it needs to ensure that issues can be resolved within one or two days. The main issue is the time to resolve problems, not the time to response, which is adequate.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AppDynamics makes it much easier for us to detect problems or issues before they become problems. We have alerting on all of our business transactions."
"The best features of AppDynamics would be the code application monitoring capabilities."
"We're a large organization, so we appreciate AppDynamics' wide coverage. It may not work in all areas, but it has broad coverage. We can use the same dataset for different use case aspects. That is the beauty of AppDynamics. You can coordinate APM, EUM, and infrastructure through one dataset."
"The solution helps us save a lot of time on certain tasks."
"The most valuable feature is that we can see how our end-users are interacting with our application across regions."
"The release management capabilities are great."
"The time saved is significant as we have gone from four hours to one hour, which means we are saving a lot of time."
"It is easy to gain visibility into complex environments with AppDynamics. It has the ability to combine operation information of the environment and business information with strong business IQ support."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its tunneling capability. It is good for inventory, encryption, device location, and kiosk mode. If a device is lost, you can find it. We integrated it with a third-party tool for one-time passwords and two-factor authentication. The user-friendly interface makes device management easy."
"I would rate Workspace ONE Intelligence nine out of ten."
"Integration is also very easy."
 

Cons

"To improve Splunk AppDynamics, it should migrate seamlessly into observability Splunk, which is called Splunk Observability Cloud."
"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."
"The solution should add some monitoring similar to Oracle monitoring tools for databases. It has a lot of features to monitor SQL queries, and make some recommendation to resolve it. AppDynamics is just monitoring for delays and doesn't provide any recommendations for that. It's a deficiency."
"If it can be able to intelligently provide all the things we need to look at, from a data point of view, that would be very useful."
"The solution is available at an inflated cost"
"As per my experience, the drill-down feature can be improved at the class level."
"Installation and configuration can be very tough. An average user without specialized knowledge can't do this. You need to have DevOps and QA teams handle it. During installation, a lot of customers get stuck trying to track the database or the API part, and they have to contact customer support."
"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."
"Support could be improved for Workspace, especially the technical part, and it needs to ensure that issues can be resolved within one or two days."
"Windows devices management needs improvement."
"One area for improvement is location mapping - it uses Bing Maps instead of Google Maps, which isn't always up to date. Device enrollment can also be challenging, especially for older devices that need a factory reset."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AppDynamics Database Monitoring is expensive. I rate it a seven to eight 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."
"There is an annual cost to use this solution. The licensing model could be improved by making it more cost-effective."
"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."
"The pricing of the solution is reasonable for what features you receive."
"Because it is priced per JVM, the price can increase pretty fast, into the millions. We have had challenges because we had to justify the price to our clients, as well, when we are putting in certain tools."
"It's a very expensive product. Each of the licenses after this month for one server is around $9,000 or $10,000."
"The tool is expensive."
"The solution is cost-effective. Workspace ONE Intelligence is neither cheap nor expensive. Compared to other tools like MaaS360, it Is more cost-effective. It costs about seven dollars per user, while others might cost $50—a big difference."
