Adequate documentation for performance monitoring.
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates AppDynamics from other similar products?
We track issues and performance across development environments, allowing us to detect changes in performance across builds and versions. Alerts notify us as soon as problems arise, allowing us to begin examining them before clients complain. It enables near real-time monitoring and logging, as well as assisting in swiftly identifying the underlying cause of production issues and resolving them to have your production application up and running as soon as feasible.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Their UI and documentation are fantastic and help APM integration. Other agents are simple to install, and we can see which servers are utilizing which servers. AppDynamics makes it simple to validate underperforming web pages and API requests, so my team knows where to focus next in order to enhance our user experience. Permalinks to queries make it simple to share data with others and return to it later.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I honestly have no dislikes. Their assistance is second to none, their client focus is inspiring, and their progress is lightning quick. AppDynamics is an excellent tool for application monitoring and performance; it will integrate many services, such as AWS, and it will integrate all services (in-depth monitoring of EC2 and ElastiCache as well).
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Definitely give it a shot; you'll be surprised at how well it goes down with devs and DevOps. Contact your local sales representative immediately to obtain your proof of concept and begin utilizing AppDynamics.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable

The best performance tracking tool.
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates AppDynamics from other similar products?
Appdynamics is an easy way to monitor the health of any non-critical and mission essential applications, business performance is boosted with the aid of AppDynamics, helps in outage circumstances, and occasionally manually log into the server to verify the status and status of application activities. We use Appdynamics to monitor and guarantee that our applications operate often and without faults, and if an issue is discovered with the aid of Appdynamics, we work hard to resolve it in order to maintain uptime/availability.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
One of the most useful tools for tracking the health of mission-critical IT legacy and non-legacy systems. Each installed software has detailed features, a simple and user-friendly design, is simple to operate, and the functions are properly shown. JVM and node information is accurately given in the portal, including the last reboot time, status, description, traffic analysis, incoming and outgoing details, and error rate. Appdynamics assists us in prioritizing our approach to the situation. A significant advantage is the granularity of telemetry data and analytics that might depict a developer's perspective.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Appdynamics involves the acquisition of multiple modules, which takes time and money away from the firm. Let's imagine I want to use a module or feature that will help me with my job, but when I go to seek for it, I discover that it requires an internal license. Custom demands necessitate more effort/manpower.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I would recommend AppDynamics if you need to monitor application performance or any other service. It is simple to use and one of the finest on the market; it allows different languages for automation, so you are not limited to the language. In addition, the benefits you obtain as a user are enormous in my view, and it is strongly advised that businesses adopt AppDynamics as their primary monitoring tool.

- Continually Improving Product
