    It was very good to use in small scale projects. Considering the high end projects with many instances and multi-platform architectures, it is better to test before the application is deployed. I think few of the questions can be general - who are the system users and what size is the application focussing on? How much resources are required? Will the application require any additional services?

    It is used in our company for monitoring and analysing purpose. It has so many other options like SSH/alerts and click automation is adding so much to this software. Also it has lots of features which is so overwhelming sometimes but useful. It is inappropriate when you try to use plug in scripts in Germain APM.

    Primarily because it used to have a good free tier earlier, which it does not anymore. It's simple, and things are available to use. Compared to it's competitors, it does has less features, but that kind of acts in its favor. That adds to the simplicity, and ease of use for a new user.

    Germain APM and Sauce Labs can be used for different purposes and are well-suited for teams with specific needs. We were looking for a platform that is easy to use, has low barriers to entry, and offers a lot of customization, flexibility, and integration options then after researching we started using the Germain APM software. Because it has so much specifications.
