Teams have a single source of truth to focus on end-to-end performance in the context of the customer experience, instead of monitoring individual services.

The ability of AppDynamics to offer a thorough understanding of application performance from the infrastructure layer to the end user experience ,sets it apart from other APM tools. Its sophisticated features which include automated anomaly detection , real time monitoring and deep drive analysis, make it an effective tool for application optimization and troubleshooting.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
AppDynamics user friendly dashboard and interface are my favorite features, it makes it simple to recognize and diagnose problems by offering clear and succinct visualization of application performance metrics. Furthermore the platforms saves a great deal of time and effort by automatically detecting and alerting users to performance anomalies.
What do you dislike most about this product?
AppDynamics complexity is one of its disadvantage , particularly business with Sizable and intricate IT environments , configuring and managing the platform can be difficult , especially for people who are unfamiliar with APM. Also the cost is high particularly for business that require a lot of monitoring .
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I advise assessing unique application performance monitoring requirements if thinking about using AppDynamics . Taking into account the technical know how of the team, the volume of data we must analyze and the complexity of application. Although AppDynamics is an effective tool, not all organization finds it suitable ,before making a choice its important to carefully consider the advantage and disadvantage..

AppDynamics is great for correct APM

What differentiates AppDynamics from other similar products?
To momitor, analyze, and alert on issues with IBM Sterling CPQ, AppDynamics provides APM visibility. With the support of the AppDynamics Customer Success team, our teams were able to take full advantage of the product's essential features.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I like how robust AppDynamics is. To monitor a complicated Java-based application running on many host platforms and databases, AppDynamics provides the necessary functionalities.
What do you dislike most about this product?
To properly configure the product, we needed some time to get familiar with it. Default notifications should be adjusted to be less noisy. The help of AppD Support was required to fine-tune the tracking of vital company transactions.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
The Oracle database powers our CPQ implementation, which runs on AIX and Linux systems. Our program supports a wide range of operating systems and databases, and there are AppDynamics agents that can handle them all.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Efficient Service
- Helps Innovate

AppDynamics is a robust and efficient APM
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates AppDynamics from other similar products?
Excellent knowledge of APM, very useful analytics data captured from mobile devices and browsers, and good details on end-user monitoring for both.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I really like AppDynamics. It provides information about the application itself, information about the database side, server monitoring, and most importantly, end-user monitoring. Collect analytical data which is very beneficial.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There are some problems, Anamoly detection still lacks quality, support is average, idea acceptance is painfully slow, and Smart Agent can only be installed on certain file systems.

The product is top-notch as an APM solution, however, services and support need to be improved. The only area the team could improve is how they handle new ideas and changes.
