Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

  • "It provides a history of the activities on our SQL servers."
  • "The most valuable feature is drill-down monitoring, which shows us from one interface the transaction chain from the front end to back end."
  • "Infrastructure Monitoring and End User Monitoring are the product’s most valuable features to me."

Room for Improvement

  • "I would perhaps like to see more SSMS connections."
  • "I want to see a new interface that contains HTML5 features. The current version of Foglight (on-premise edition) is so fusty in comparison with leaders of Gartner APM Quadrant - i.e. Appdynamics, NewRelic, Dynatrace."
  • "We are running a Webmethods stack (Software AG) and Foglight is unable to instrument. We are in a POC with Dynatrace and it was able to instrument with little effort."

Pricing

  • "Since the product split – the licensing is a bit more complex."
  • "Foglight can be expensive I would go with the pricing at a three year deal."
  • "The price is expensive for us."
These insights are based on the in-depth reviews provided by peers to help you make a better buying decision.
