What differentiates AppDynamics from other similar products?
We utilize AppDynamics to monitor infrastructure, apps, databases, real-time online and mobile monitoring, synthetic, analytics, BIQ A, and AiOps to keep our important systems monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. On the IT side, AppDynamics delivers the quickest warning of an issue (often in less than 5 minutes), furthermore, with flow maps, one may instantly observe whether any cautions or difficulties are beginning or continuing. The AppDynamics call stack information is important for diagnosing bugs in development.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Flow maps are wonderful, and AppDynamics autodiscovery makes it useful quickly after installation. One of the most useful aspects is the ability to express data in many ways. If you are a developer, for example, the granularity of the telemetry data and the metrics it might reflect to a development mentality is a tremendous benefit. However, if you are a businessperson seeking a technical degree of detail, the way critical business data, such as in business transactions, is presented in a comprehensible manner is a major benefit.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Appdynamics is an agent-based monitoring solution for a variety of monitoring domains. In the contemporary world, with a devOps perspective, it is challenging to integrate agent installation with custom configuration in generic devOps pipelines in a multi-tenant environment. There is a rationale for this, and that is to provide renters with personalisation. However, these can only be done during the installation process, not afterwards. As a result, maintaining a generic installation process that covers everything is difficult.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
According to Gartenr Quodrant evaluations, AppDynamics is a market leader in the APM business. Furthermore, based on my personal experience, the benefits you receive as a user are enormous. It is strongly advised that enterprises adopt AppDynamics as their primary monitoring solution. However, be sure you know exactly what you want because adding further features after an agreement has been struck might be costly. Dedicate personnel to installation and administration, and enroll in classes or sign up for consulting time.
