What do you like best about Dynatrace?

Using the tracing of requests through multiple microservices, I can find where the request is stalling out and or failing. It has helped me and my team get to the root of many problems without having to write custom code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynatrace?

There is so many options and so much power in the platform that users regularly get lost or confused as they navigate through the different pages, options and possible actions. The good news is that with a few hours of practice you learn where and how to do the work. To find the gold - it really does work. Seriously Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Dynatrace solving and how is that benefiting you?

it gives me insights into how the app is being used in different parts of the world. A perfect example, is needing to see how the users are using my application on a distant continent. It gave me visibility into what is being clicked on, what browsers are being used and what OS's are being used. All of which I need to know what to best build for my customers.

What do you like best about Dynatrace?

The Problems App is my personal favorite feature within Dynatrace, It may be very underrated but it is truly amazing and saves a lot of time when you are working on an issue. It provides a quick summary of the issue with the time when it occurred along with a link to the resources impacted so you can dig deeper. I have previously used other monitoring tools such as New Reclic or Wily Introscope but the experience with Dynatrace is so much better. Installation of the OneAgent is super easy and the navigation is very intutive. Customer support is always very resourceful and quick in their responses. We have been able to integrate Dynatrace with Cloud Foundry, GCP Compute Instances and Kubernetes very easily. In my role as a Support Engineer I use Dynatrace every day, either to monitor the Production environment using various Dashobards, triaging Production Issues using Problems App, adding and modifying Maintenance Windows to snooze alerts during Deployments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynatrace?

One of feature within Dynatrace that I have challenges with is the Alerting Profiles. It cannot exlude a single entity from a management zone from being picked up by the alerting profile, you will need to identify and include every single entity you need except the one you don't want which is tedious. I hope they can add feature which lets you select entities that you can exlude from alerting profiles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dynatrace helps us solve various issues including service failure rate increase, response time slowness due to backend issues, infrastruture availability and website availibility using synthetic monitoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynatrace?

They know the value they provide and charge you accordingly, it can be very difficult to digest the cost of the tool and it can be difficult to manage your organization's consumption of licensing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Dynatrace solving and how is that benefiting you?

They're broad integrations make it easy to consolidate what used to be multiple tools into one platform. Also, enabling the ability to take what used to just be IT performance information and extract business data from that is a great value add. The automated root cause analysis was also a huge boon to reducing our down time from outages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its integration with our existing systems was seamless, and the platform offers great visibility into all data points. Customer support has been responsive and helpful, ensuring we get the most out of the tool. We use this daily to track the issue and successive sessions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynatrace?

The only downside is that Dynatrace's pricing can be a bit on the higher side, especially for smaller teams or businesses just getting started. Additionally, while the platform is feature-rich, it can take some time to fully leverage all its capabilities. A more user-friendly onboarding experience would make it even better.

What do you dislike about Dynatrace?

A lot of customers are still on Dynatrace managed - the upgrade path to bring them to Dynatrace SaaS is tricky. Investments are obviously on the SaaS product, so it would be advantegous for Dynatrace and their partners if the upgrade path was a better supported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Dynatrace solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a service provider, Dynatrace's ease of implementation and wast offerings in the platform, ensures that we from a sales perspective always have a compelling business-oriented story to bring to our customer and prospects on how we in tandem with Dynatrace can help drive their business outcomes with confidence.

The consitent innovation across the platfom with few features, and feature refinement, demonstrate Dynatrace's commitment to innovation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Dynatrace?

DT is very useful when it comes to identifying problems. I enjoy all the different offerings it provides to get to the root cause. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynatrace?

Today on the SaaS solution it seems like I need to reload a lot of the apps whenever I spend a couple of minutes on one. For instance I can be looking at services in a management zone and select one of my services. After doing some analysis and clicking the service app once more, I would hope it take me to see all my services again but this is not the case it just displays the same service i was just seeing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Dynatrace solving and how is that benefiting you?

DT has been instrumental when it comes to problem finding and it has enable me to find root cause faster and push fixes almost immediate once the root cause has been identified or even rollback to a previous working version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
