This tool is amazing in terms of performance bottleneck analysis and user friendliness
Vantagens
The good thing about the tools is its integration with the load runner tool for performance testing
We can get the exact method and class names from the code which helps in finding the bottleneck
Desvantagens
Some flex calls cannot be captured with the appdynamics so cannot be used for the flex coded developed applications. Extra license cost for the database monitoring can be more structured
Skeptical at first and now speechless and client ecstatic!
One platform that allows you to view key metrics of any "online store/service" in one pane. In a digital economy now and more people embracing the "cloud", which comes at a premium......it's great to be able to "see" in real time not only your infrastructure performance but the performance of the users and the apps and allows you know EXACTLY where the change is needed. Which gives organizations the option of freeing up staff, thus freeing up "salary" and putting it back in their bottom line.
Vantagens
Single pane viewing of what matters most. Simple click of a button and I can view infrastructure response, user "click thru" i.e. completes to weekly/monthly reporting taking only minutes instead of hours or days. We were able to view what percentage of users visited/clicked thru with device and time of day and able to see their drop point. Immediately saw a trend and got our app team on it and saw almost immediate uptick in customer completes/orders. What sold me was the agentless monitoring of the databases so we could actully see in real time what days/times we needed to apply additional CPU resources.
Desvantagens
I guess I really can't state a "plausible" con......the software goes above and beyond what we had envisioned and actually made everyone's duties easier to complete which we were able to turn reports and analytics around quicker.......so if I had to complain about something.....maybe the price??? But isn't always about "price".

Great Tool For Monitoring My Applications
As I have started developing our own systems and web applications internally, it has become essential that I have consistently capable tools for monitoring the effectiveness and engagement of my apps. AppDynamics has provided that capability and much more.
Vantagens
Wide breadth of services and function coupled with firs class customer services. They've been in the market for a long time, so there's a firmly established user community.
Desvantagens
Some of the data that I need gets lost on all of the functions. Curse of the blessing, I guess. Otherwise, I have no issues.
One of the best Application performance monitoring tools
Awesome product to analyse transactions
Vantagens
Easy to drill down to ground zero, helps in faster triage of transaction failures.
Desvantagens
A little complex for novice users. Too many steps to follow
Great insights into application performance in real world conditions
Proactive management of software performance/ issues in production
Vantagens
We started using AppDynamics in 2012 when we inherited code in production that was built by someone else. The level of insights it provided helped us address the production issues quickly and we started using it for all new development and deployment. It helped us move from being reactive to proactive in identifying and managing issues/ bottlenecks
Desvantagens
Like any complex piece of software it requires some learning. However, given the amount of information it generates out of the box it is easy for people not to make changes to configurations. That might result in more noise than news
AppDynamics
We use AppDynamics to monitor the performance of our servers and applications. It helps us to find the reasons for the slowdown in servers. Monitoring current servers was not enough for us. Appdynamics made it very easy to find the problem.
Vantagens
The user interface so everyone can understand. Especially the graphics showing the flow of network traffic between our various monitored servers is great.
Desvantagens
Learning all the features of the application can take time.
AppDynamics Review
Use it to monitor health of services to ensure all operations are running smoothly and identify any errors that show up.
Vantagens
Monitor health of web services.
Create custom health rules for monitoring.
Sends email and call when health rule is violated.
Has a nice user interface that shows all the nodes.
Desvantagens
The nodes in the user interface can get cluttered when using a microservice architecture with a lot of services.
Best in class, Slowness in major concern
Vantagens
The functions of projects are great, drill to the issue to root level and this makes it easy to resolve issues.
Desvantagens
Slowness, it takes time to respond and granularity of data reduces with time.
It waseasy earn this learn for new user.mapping of the loadrunner with this tool is easy
Vantagens
It is easy to monitor the server side and client side performance metric.Easy to identify the bottleneck at application and database level.
Desvantagens
It adds licenses to be installed as well as the cost brings limitation for use.
An amazing tool to monitor an application's performance over an extended period of time.
I use it everyday to track down following on SQL server:
- SQL statements or stored procedures that are consuming most of the system resources.
- Statistics on procedures, SQL statements, and SQL query plans.
Vantagens
- Simple and easy to use interface.
- Provides complete visibility on the application's performance (Application Monitoring), database performance, and infrastructure performance ranging from 1 day - 1 year.
- Provides tons of information which can be used to resolve an issue quickly.
Desvantagens
- Although the interface is easy to use, but still it is very hard to find the valuable information quickly many times.
It is highly recommended that a beginner must go through a training program before using this software.
- Some parts of the software still use flash.
AppDynamics has saved us so much time!
It's not the easiest APM out there to use by far. And manually instrumenting non-web software is the pits. But it pays off in droves. We've cut support times by 80%+. Before when we had issues, it involved a lot of trial and error, randomly looking at diff server logs, and manual hunting for problems. Now we know right where to start, and most of the time, even know what exactly is causing the issue. Root cause analysis is quick and easy. Database traces, full cross-app traces, it's all there now and it works amazingly. Now they just need to make it easier to use, because anyone outside of IT is instantly lost.
Vantagens
Deep, useful analysis of performance of applications. Makes for quick troubleshooting.
Desvantagens
It's not user friendly at all. And instrumentation of non-web apps is a slow painful process.
My experience has been great. It is a one stop shop for many monitoring and analytical needs.
Monitoring and analytical
Vantagens
Appdynamics supports many platforms, and it's set up is relatively easy. It also supports customized monitoring, and allows you to build what you need.
Good admin tool for cloud foundry products
Software monitoring, event logging, overall status of applications.
Vantagens
I like that it is really easy to implement, add AppDynamics agent to your code manifest and it starts to monitor your application. Easy to set up triggers for events which should be monitored.
Desvantagens
Sometimes for same url applications it tends to not find requests between multiple applications, but give it some time and it should work as expected.
Great application performance monitoring
Vantagens
The UI is fairly intuitive making it easy to find what your looking for. Integration is also fairly easy through the use of setup wizards for their agents.
Desvantagens
I wish therer was better logging integration and corillation between logs and APM
A great tool to analyze applications.
Vantagens
AppDynamics provides great reports to analyze performance of applications. Dashboards provide simple but effective data to get an idea of the application's behavior.
Desvantagens
Price of the AppDynamics is high. But it has many valuable features. This is not for small businesses.
AppDyanamics review from T-Mobile employee
Overall it's above average.
Vantagens
All app and machine agents can be viewed. We can create dashboards as well for all server performances that gives us overview of how quickly we can identify issues.
Desvantagens
User Interface. Not very user friendly. In addition, sometimes user interface respond slowly.
Its a great tool to capture the performance
performance metrics, alerting and notifications
Vantagens
auto detection of environment connectivity, I don't have to do anything to configure my connection patterns which is amazing
Desvantagens
none as of now, the only thing I could think is the cost, other than that we should check on integration with ticketing tools
Utilize AppDynamics to monitoring PROD Java applications
Able to see JVM memory usage, garbage collection, JVM error, and applications error per tier to associated systems.
Vantagens
Easy to install, configure, and manage. Just straight agent that you need to install on your systems and add it as part of your JVM process.
Desvantagens
Nothing to do not like it. Sometimes could be difficult to troubleshoot it if they agent cannot start with JVM process.
Free Lite Version covers many tasks
The freemium version of AppDynamics offers many useful tasks for smaller websites. I think to a certain extend it can also be useful for larger ones. Right now, I am using the free version and I think I can get along with that for some time. That´s great!!!
One negative point that I can see is that the Lite version records data from only the last two hours, that´s not enough.
Fantastic Tool
Pretty new to this tool, but its already impressed me with the auto detection of nodes.
still exploring for more options.. but this tool could be one stop for all monitoring

Vantagens
Great monitoring into web applications and infrastructure and great analytics dashboards.
Desvantagens
A bit pricey in comparison to its competitors
Integration with load runner
