A DevOps fundamental tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easy of use, it helps me in target and debugging issues on all environments, even in realtime.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't find anything unhelpful, for my use everything is ok.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Targeting erroneous call, bug fixing a nd monitoring in realtime. In complex infrastructure (we use it in microservices scenario) is faster check instana instead of analyze huge log files from server.
very reliable and accurate
What do you like best about the product?
all the stack timings involved in the service calls
What do you dislike about the product?
the difficulties of setting filter criteria
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
typically monitoring production environment. It helps us finding easily the involved and not responding services in the stack
Useful tool for monitoring and troubleshooting
What do you like best about the product?
We strongly work with microservices, Instana allows to look for the full request path spanning different services and this provides an easy way to analyse problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
We often aren't able to visualize the full payload of requests or to see the detailed stacktrace of errors, so we need to use other tools to perform a complete analysis.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Instana for monitoring and troubleshooting mainly in a microservice scenario. The main benefits are faster analysis and solving of problems and an easy way to display a syntethic overview of the system.
1 year working with Instana
What do you like best about the product?
It only works with only one agent, you don't need to deploy multiple agents for different technologies and it's fully automated, it instruments and autodiscovers all the technologies working on the host and it creates a dependency map of the fullstack.
The licensing also is very simple compared to other APM solutions
The licensing also is very simple compared to other APM solutions
What do you dislike about the product?
Some configurations have to be done using configuration files and cannot be done using the WebUI.
Its real user monitoring functionality is limited compared to other APM solutions
If you have a host with many processes running, the agent can consume high resources
Cannot find what specific versions of technologies and SO are soported by Instana on documentation

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have full observability of the infreastructure and services, we are avoiding war rooms as we can find the root cause of the problems very fast, we can easily identify the dependencies of the applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There's no doubt that Instana is one of the best APM solutions on the marked, easy to use and easy to install, fully automated
Great tool for smoother monitoring experience
What do you like best about the product?
Have been using instana for backend applications. The way instana tracks number of requests and latency for the requests, and even what part of the request took long time is really great. Helps with better debugging experience
What do you dislike about the product?
Allows looking at maximum 1 month of data. Could help if longer timeline is allowed. Mainly because in some type of issue which are creating a pattern, for example 15th of every month there is a spike, here the experience is not so smooth
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before instana, we didn't have any APMs integrated. This made debugging experience very poor, after integration with instana, life has become easier. We can now track all the metrics at one place. It also shows the dependencies between other rest services and all the callers who are calling our api. Although this is possible with other solutions like grafana, instana simply makes things easier because we no longer need to do any manual configuration from our code base
Instana has been a critical tool for our system monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
The detailed call stack trace with the amount of detailed data is the best part about instana. Club that with the alert setup has reduced our RCA time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the UI becomes difficult to navigate when we go into detail about an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Instana for performance monitoring of our APIs and monitor our cluster management during heavy loads.
Thorough and detailed insights of your hosting estate
What do you like best about the product?
High resolution of activity across a wide range of metrics
What do you dislike about the product?
Can take time to learn to get the most out of it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Identification of errors and ability to closely monitor response times.
