Beaucoup moins de potentiel depuis le rachat par IBM, considérez-le comme un produit IBM, pas comme une startup prometteuse.

  • February 20, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

Qu'aimez-vous le plus à propos de the product?
L'interface utilisateur est bonne, le traçage est utile et efficace. La configuration des nouveaux services est également simple.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
Depuis la prise de contrôle par IBM, le support a été plus lent, il est plus difficile d'obtenir quelqu'un avec qui parler. Le processus d'achat est également très lourd. On a l'impression que tous les processus lourds et la culture d'entreprise d'IBM prennent le dessus sur la force d'Instana. Les versions deviennent également plus lentes et moins fiables. Je ne suis pas sûr que ce produit en vaille encore la peine.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Temps de réponse, erreurs, surveillance par des tiers.

A spectacular interfaz

  • February 20, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The monitoring system is very effective, and I think it is impressive.
It is a well-designed system. We can see all the problems and successes in the platforms and other systems. The UI and UX of Instana are spectacular. After learning the basics of using this software, implementing it is very easy and intuitive. All the information is clear to see.
What do you dislike about the product?
Instana has more advanced functions than I need to implement frequently. But these functions, when I want to use them, are confusing. The interface sometimes shows too much information and the configuration options get lost. Maybe it's because of my little experience using other Instana functions. Still, I wish t was more intuitive in some parts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Now, we can monitor the performance of some applications we are developing for some of our customers. We can also see how our systems are working. It is crucial for us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My biggest recommendation is to have several dashboards, one for each process being monitored. It is crucial to have the information sorted to observe and evaluate it.
And the second recommendation is to monitor all relevant aspects that occur in the company. Of curse, monitoring is not always needed to solve problems; sometimes it is just to keep improving small things. In any case, it is great peace of mind for us to know how our system is working.

An A1 tool for monitoring teams

  • February 15, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
When coordinating a team that is not yet engaged, it is helpful to monitor a system that consists of different services. Also, its monitoring system has been enhanced, and I feel it is the most comprehensive one I have used.
What do you dislike about the product?
Instana may take some time to learn or get used to the program's language. So, the cost must include adaptation and learning period. It isn't a big problem. I like this software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Regarding the graphs and reports that the program issues, we use them regularly in internal team meetings. We want to analyze situations and make decisions that are necessary to improve the company's number.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't be so apprehensive about how complicated the interface might seem first. You can search tutorials on YouTube or talk with technical support to clear your doubts.

What a relief after searching for a great monitor program!!

  • February 15, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The intricacies and ease (smoothness) of usage.
What do you dislike about the product?
The same things that I love about Instana can also be small stumbling blocks. For instance, when code shows up that I am not familiar with. I am sure we will use this to our advantage however, as time goes on and we tackle this learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainely hopefully FINALLY finding a program that can monitor (and of course soo much more!).

An excellent tool forour internl processes and developing client projects

  • February 01, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We can individually track each application we monitor with Instana. Its speed for reporting every error that occurs. It is handy to monitor a system composed of different services, especially if the teamwork is not clean.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes isn't easy to digest the large amount of data provided in real-time.

Its weakly reports about the health of the applications are poor. I prefer check daily reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to monitor all our cloud applications and servers. It is also helpful to keep one eye on our VMs because their CPU performance tends to drop during optimization tests.

On the other hand, we use Instana when optimizing the loading speed and user experience of the applications and pages that we develop for our clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please, talk to someone who has already used Instana or contact technical support. It is not complex software, but it is overhelming at firts.
