Dynatrace is one of the best tools for monotiring JVM applications
What do you like best about the product?
A very handy tool to monitor application along its whole lifecycle from startup to shutdown. Also, the collected information are so detailed (e.g. method level or GC information) that we can spot easily problems like bottleneck or parts of the application that is the most heavy in terms of CPU or RAM footprint. Furthermore, it is even able to grab useful information (e.g. timers) from native code that can be packaged along with Java code.
What do you dislike about the product?
The need for deploying an agent on the same JVM as the application to be monitored. This means some special network ports have to be opened and if you're applications are deployed on a public cloud this will imply modifying the security groups. In the case the deployment is in premise then this will not be a problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was part of a company that develops software for the financial sector, the application was developed in the J2EE specification. To be able to advice our customers for best setup, we evaluated many application monitoring tools available for the JVM. We did that in order to advice our clients on the best solution they could use to get a better understanding of the operational aspect of our application. Dynatrace was one of the tools that we advised our client to use if they had nothing already for Java applications monitoring.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dynatrace may be not easy to setup but the benefit gained from deploying it is worth the pain. It centralise operational information in a single interface enabling effective investigations in case of issues that may occurs to monitored applications.
Dynatrace for Compuware
What do you like best about the product?
It provides our entire IT team a granular look at issues our end users may be having with running applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is not very intuitive. But once you get familiar with it, it is a great tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problem solving with how are application are running including any latency in our network with response time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Dynatrace. The cost is not cheap for the hardware, software, and training. But it is well worth it to improve the quality and the production of your end users.
Dynatrace is a fantastic product for monitoring the performance flow of our entire suite of intercon
What do you like best about the product?
It shows very clearly and obviously exactly what is going on, down to the line of code running on multiple different applications across multiple servers, regardless of how they talk to each other
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there can be information overload and it takes experience to cut through that to find details
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Performance issues in a large, service oriented architecture spreading across dozens of load balanced services has become trivial instead of a nightmare
Very good at what it does, navigation just requires ctrl-f.
What do you like best about the product?
It can track information that is transmitted between applications and users etc, this is great for finding where in your code it's causing the application to crash. This is very helpful for in house products and developing them further.
What do you dislike about the product?
On face value there is so much going on, this makes the product very overwhelming. It shows off the options and features available which is great but makes it much tougher to hone in on it's practical uses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Preventing bottlenecks by examining the database statements and subsequently changing how searches etc are done and where in the code they occur.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very expensive, would look at similar applications for development but would rather just use a network monitor to tell me if things are down.
dynatrace is great
What do you like best about the product?
this is a very simple application to use, and has found many performance issues before our customers found them. performance testing can be completed in the cloud. monitors 100% of transactions during load testing, great dashboards. monitors 100% of transactions during load testing. very easy to troubleshoot if there are errors.
What do you dislike about the product?
about the only thing i didnt like is the price. its way too pricey for my organization, and we were forced to go with a different software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we only used for a bit, but it out performed smartbear,
