    Dynatrace is well suited to a number of tasks. It is important to determine who the end users are and gather good information to tailor their experience accordingly. For instance, business/marketing should not have access to some of the more technical data, and business metrics can be a distraction for IT operations personnel.

    Pros
    Dynatrace LLC
    • We loved Dynatrace's ability to show the data flow - from the front end points through the back end points straight to the database and various API's. It was advanced in its data visualization. This is useful for debugging - showing when/where the errors are. It can even enable non-technical individuals in the corporation to help debug
    • Dynatrace has some great highly customizable integration options as well as monitoring. You can configure your layout & integration options to create custom monitoring alerts for your applications performance. Further you can increase the extensibility of using a REST API on your architecture.
    • Some advanced dev-ops systems are utilizing Kubernetes/docker aswell as Node.JS - Dynatrace was able to log and help understand all of our dev-ops needs. It gave us native alerts based off of deviations from the baseline that we set during initial configuration. These metrics are priceless.

    • Threat prediction and network forensics are the most useful features. It's possible for me to see who received and clicked on any malware on the network, for example. This is the feature I enjoy the most.
    • In addition, the capture packet provides a wealth of information.
    • The support.

    Cons
    Dynatrace LLC
    • Dynatrace does not monitor easily on AIX OS.
    • Dynatrace does not monitor easily on a C-based application.
    • The way DPGR is addressed by Dynatrace is not very complete, and not clear. One thing is to mask the IP and request attributes but is not enough, the replay session feature is great but raises serious questions about user tracking.

    • Lacking out of the box best practice templates etc. It relies heavily on customization.
    • Lack of up to date threat feeds.
    • Difficult to learn and use initially.

    We have already renewed our purchase with the company. They make it easy for us to get a temporary license for our contingency site that is only used for testing twice a year. We are expanding our license with for this tool. We find it very useful and will renew it again.

    Usability
    Dynatrace LLC
    Dynatrace is feature rich and often many way to get to the required data. We have 150+ users and one thing we have to do is provide training. Otherwise users can get lost when drilling down through services and traces. The filtering options help to reduce the noise and focus on the area concerned. When give people access to logs we need guardrails to ensure queries are targeted. This helps with cost control.

    Given that Dynatrace has become an informal industry standard, the plethora of information available on forums is massive. Most problems or roadblocks you come across are most likely (almost certainly, in fact) already solved and solutions available on these forums. The tech support at Dynatrace is also quite good, with prompt and knowledgeable people at their end.

    Synthetic Monitoring automatically does what other products do only through the use of other tools or through the development of user applications that still have a high cost of maintenance. The other products are not immediately usable and require many customizations. Through the use of configuration automatisms, you can be immediately operational and, in our case, we detected several imperfections in the applications.

    ES offers the single pane of glass for investigation and monitoring needs, however, to get everything onboarded can be daunting. The identiy and assets enrichment was not as straightforward and required a lot of manual work to make them work. For it to be optimized for full benefit, there is a layer of complexity that needs to be managed along the journey post deployment as well
