Glassbox
Glassbox is a customer experience management platform that provides various tools, including Interaction Maps, to help organizations understand and improve the customer journey. Some specific scenarios where Glassbox is well suited include: Identifying pain points in the customer journey: The Interaction Maps feature provides a visual representation of customer interactions, allowing organizations to easily identify where customers may be struggling and take action to resolve the issue. Proactively addressing issues: With the Interaction Maps feature, organizations can proactively address issues as they arise, rather than relying on customer feedback to identify problems. Improving customer service: By understanding the customer journey, organizations can improve the overall customer experience and provide top-notch customer service. On the other hand, there may be some scenarios where Glassbox is less appropriate, such as: Organizations with a limited budget: Glassbox is a subscription-based service, so it may not be suitable for organizations with a limited budget or those who are not willing to make the investment in customer experience management tools. Organizations with minimal online presence: Glassbox is primarily focused on improving the online customer journey, so it may be less appropriate for organizations with a minimal online presence.

Cons
Aternity
  • The tool demands High CPU resources to perform monitoring which reduces the overall performance and the user experience is sluggish
  • Also a good amount of training is required to set up the different use cases and monitoring parameters which in return demands a dedicated resource to work on the tool

  • Some shiny new features are hard to use and/or optimize
  • The email templates need improving. They are stiff and unfriendly.
  • Ticket support is a bit weak. Slow response times and opinions for answers instead of facts.

There is a wide variety of APM solutions out there for companies to pick from. Riverbed AppInternals sits near the top of the stack certainly. We already deploy steelhead units across the estate with client licenses, that aided us in our decision to select AppInternals. We found the costs of AppDynamics and New Relic ( which we had trials for) both costly against AppInternals.

Return on Investment
Aternity
  • This product has really wonderful features and one of the most valuable ones is the transaction searches into TTW.
  • This will show you the operations that occurred under conditions that the user specifies, giving you the opportunity to drill down on the things that are more important and affecting system performance.
  • Besides that, the capability of analyzing each individual transaction captured to a very low-level detail (method call/line of code). This ability empowers the testing teams to provide more visibility to developers on how they can improve.
