Splunk AppDynamics Reviews & Product Details

While the APM component is very mature, the EUM tool adds a critical aspect that we have really been missing - the visibility into network errors, app crashes, and other client side issues, which provide a much more compelling story during incident triage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The OnPrem EUM product has had a lot of scalability issues handling our large customer base. Features for the OnPrem version lag far behind the SAS offering when compared to other OnPrem vendors. Responsiveness and effectiveness of the support resources for the EUM product have been inconsistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Need to install many agents such as APM,Analystics,Infra, DB specific agent there is no single agent installation to monitor end to end application.

Costlier product in terms of license Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Data representation based on different views is one of the best feature.

For an example if you a developer the granularity of telimetry data and metrics you can represent for a developer mind set is a huge advantage. On the other side if you are a business person rather going technical level of granularity, the way the business important data as in Business transactions been presented in an understanding manner is a huge benifict.

Appdynamics is an agent based solution for different monitoring scopes. In modern world with devOps mindset,in multi tenant scenario, integrating agent installation with the custom configuration in devOps generic pipelines is hard.

There is a reason for that, that is because to give the tenants to do customisation. But they can be done only during installation not after. So to have a generic pipeline for installtion covering everything is hard to keep up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

appdynamics is not for cloud native world. we had a poc with appdynamics for our kubernetes environment. It was terribly time consuming to implement on kubernetes. Appdynamics is not aware of variations of kubernetes in technical details. There are many missing parts like end to end observability. Ability to create custom dashboards for kubernetes services is pretty poor. All the offerings are perfect in paper but we were not able to see them on real world. We were unable to see a full picture of our environment with end to end point of view, full stack. We were not able to see underlying infrastructure , the VMs of kubernetes. It's a full-time job for one or more people to get trained, perform integration, maintain, and analyze output from AppDynamics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
