It can be delivered on a specialised appliance or on the customer's hardware, but the GUI is quite basic.
Velocimetrics can be deployed as a software or hardware based solution. It captures business-level data from multiple sources, then associates, correlates and aggregates this information together in real-time. The product can be clustered for resilience and scaled to cope with complex and high…

Root cause analysis has become possible but complex setup and agent issues still slow investigations
The limitations I notice include the instability of the agent, which crashes, and the application itself consuming memory under heavy loads. Additionally, the customizations are not easy to build, especially for new parsers and functionalities that are just supported out-of-the-box. Splunk AppDynamics needs to be more user-friendly so that even someone who does not know what is happening should be able to easily find the root cause of issues, as the tool is specifically designed for application developers, not from a user perspective for problem identification. My experience with the application performance monitoring capabilities of Splunk AppDynamics indicates that it is complex. The correlation from the front end to the back end is not working properly. In an application using the EUM feature and having the app agent, the app agent gives me the transaction data, but the EUM data does not correlate to the backend transactions, and I do not know why. It can be very complex to find the root cause in those scenarios, as there is a disparity in metrics, making it challenging. Even though Splunk AppDynamics is trying, my very large environment presents hurdles that medium-scale organizations might not experience. After spending around three to four years trying to get value from it, I still feel a lack of satisfaction. To get closer to a rating of 10 in the future, I would like to see whatever features are being provided made to work, particularly in large environments. Splunk AppDynamics claims it can do 100 things, but if those things are not functioning cohesively, it is ineffective. Instead of offering 100 features that do not work together, it would be better to focus on a smaller set of features that operate effectively. Changes happen daily with new applications and technologies, and Splunk AppDynamics needs to adapt more swiftly to keep up. The feature that helps detect and protect against vulnerabilities does raise concerns. I experience vulnerabilities in Splunk AppDynamics that I communicate to support for fixes, and they often respond by indicating that some fixes are available in new versions. This creates a continuous cycle of raising issues and waiting for resolutions through version updates.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It provides good forensic investigations features allowing review of what else was going on at the time of an incident."
"The solution is very scalable, and you can get the performance data from the end users, so it provides a proper way to analyze data from different regions."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to take a report, and in particular, a visual, and link it to actual application performance and then the consequences. This means you can show how an incident or action has an effect on the business."
"I have no issues with the stability of this solution."
"It has definitely improved us with performance; now we get alerted in time, we can see the call graphic and see where it's taking the most time, then we can go back to our code, improve it, and optimize it."
"The product is stable and the technical support is good."
"It provides everything into one view, so we can track information from one place to another."
"The solution provides good overall application performance and transaction errors which reflect backend health."
"The most valuable feature of AppDynamics is that you can easily determine the load on the application."
 

Cons

"The GUI is quite basic and can look messy very quickly"
"In the transaction naming features, for business transactions, we are not always able to tie a business transaction to a real user transaction."
"Maybe some more CPU power or something like that could be an area to improve."
"The tool should provide information like the number of connections and processes utilized in real time."
"Sometimes we're looking at the dashboard and we see something wrong. We feel that they're not really taking action."
"I am a monitoring administrator and one of the biggest issues is that it doesn't have a large environment for support."
"AppDynamics is agent-based, so some customers are reluctant to install the agents in all their production environments. It would be helpful if they had an agentless version. It covers applications on the server, but the solution is weak on the network side. The agent is not deployed on the network components, so it cannot provide complete information about issues on the network layer."
"While it is scalable, it could be better."
"When you have high stress of visits I do not know if you are more stress because of the amount of visits or because you have to wait eternal 60 seconds to find out it things are going well or you already have mess."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"AppDynamics is priced on the higher side."
"I would like more flexible pricing: A pay-per-use model, rather than just a fixed-price model."
"AppDynamics Server Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"It could be cheaper. It's a little cost prohibitive. There are so many features that also show a lot of value, but it’s not always easy to justify the cost."
"Take into consideration what you get for specific pricing models and how much it costs to add on things you may need later.​"
"There is a license to use this solution. However, the clients pay for the licenses we are the service provider."
"It is a more expensive APM among the competitors, which is fine because it also does a lot more on the auto-detection and the AI side... It is not a cheap product. None of them are. The price is fair, but I could use it on more projects if they had a lower price."
"The pricing of the solution is reasonable for what features you receive."
