Featured Reviews

Gyanesh Rahatekar - PeerSpot reviewer
Application performance management and error resolution improved with data-driven insights
Dynatrace has multiple functions compared to Splunk AppDynamics, so Splunk AppDynamics should add those functions, which are not available as of now. Dynatrace has a universal agent that collects all information related to their CI, and if one CI has multiple languages, then there is no need to instrument multiple agents. However, Splunk AppDynamics requires multiple agents; if I have one server with multiple applications in different languages, then I need to instrument different agents for each application. Splunk AppDynamics should work with Dynatrace with one single universal agent that works with all application languages, eliminating the need for multiple implementations.

Helps to find devices that are lost but improvement is needed in mapping
The tool's deployment is easy. There are lots of documents and support available online. I help deploy Workspace ONE Intelligence. It's not hard to deploy since we've done it many times. We use the on-premises solution now. Basic deployment takes one day, but adding features like tunneling takes an extra day. The main challenge is network connectivity. The documentation is good and available online.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AppDynamics provides us with detailed information about the performance of the underlying infrastructure, including servers, databases, and external services."
"We set up alerts recently so we can fix any issues more quickly in production."
"The best features of AppDynamics would be the code application monitoring capabilities."
"Splunk AppDynamics helps us in identifying bottlenecks and providing fine-tuning recommendations."
"AppDynamics' best feature is automation - for example, when I add a note, it can understand the data automatically."
"AppDynamics is easy to implement if you follow the documentation, and the documentation that they provide is good."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy since a separate machine is required, and it is not directly installed on a database as it is a type of proxy."
"Despite dozens of deployments across hundreds of applications- we have yet to see a case where AD is negatively impacting application execution or functionality."
"Integration is also very easy."
"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."
 

Cons

"I would like to see support for mobile testing and mobile monitoring."
"There needs to be an option to capture all the sessions for all the users, not just samplings."
"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."
"Improvements can be made in the area of AI integration."
"I believe they need to increase their level of visibility in the infrastructure, particularly in the infrastructure monitoring section, which currently lacks visibility."
"AppDynamics scaled well up to around 3,000 agents. The performance deteriorated after that, while Dynatrace could support more than 10,000 agents. We were surprised that AppDynamics' scalability is not so good."
"I would like the solution to be more customizable to meet our client's requirements."
"If we consider the implementation of alternative solutions, such as Dynatrace, there is a notable difference in the approach to agent-based service monitoring. For instance, Dynatrace employs a single-agent solution, which can pose security concerns. When installing Dynatrace, granting the agent ld pro payload rights is a requirement. In contrast, our solution ensures a more secure approach by not requiring root and administration access. While we currently utilize an agent-based solution, there may be a shift in the next one or two years, possibly with the adoption of Open Telemetry. It's anticipated that many APM vendors, including Dynatrace, may alter their structure or strategy for implementation. However, as of now, the trend is towards an increasing number of implementations daily."
"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."
"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."
"Windows devices management needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My understanding is that the price of this solution is quite high, compared to other products."
"Our purchasing experience through the AWS Marketplace has been pretty painless."
"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."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"This price of this product is expensive."
"The tool is expensive."
"It is a more expensive APM among the competitors, which is fine because it also does a lot more on the auto-detection and the AI side... It is not a cheap product. None of them are. The price is fair, but I could use it on more projects if they had a lower price."
"If one is expensive and ten is low price, I rate the product price as seven out of ten."
"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."
