A Performance Monitoring And Troubleshooting Tool

Likeliness to Recommend

9 / 10

What differentiates AppDynamics from other similar products?

Any application environment can benefit greatly from using Appdynamics as a 360-degree tool. I enjoy the server, application, and even the application's network traffic monitoring. My favorite feature of the application is its ability to dive down and identify the underlying reason for a problem.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It provides the option to go into detail in the event of an error. You can go to the problematic line of code. In the event of poor performance, you are also able to understand what was occurring at the time. The alert area, which I would also include, enables you to set off an alarm as necessary.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The Lite edition only records data for the previous two hours, which is a drawback in my opinion.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I was able to continue keeping tabs on an intricate ecosystem's performance. I now have a comprehensive understanding of the entire architecture, including the flow of communication between the many services that make up the solution, thanks to the product. I am able to continue keeping an eye on the system's functioning thanks to the alert notice.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Enables Productivity
  • Trustworthy
