(1-25 of 341)Tracing the heck out of it!(no pun intended)
- Metrics addition to the UI.
- Graphs and all generation in the UI.
- Alerting mechanism also work like a charm.
- UI can be a little more user-friendly from non-tech perspective.
- Alerting mechanism needs to be more seamless.
- Performance issues with some versions which leads to lots of incidents.
Along with that if you want alerting setup based on a threshold its a great tool for that.
But there is limited functionality and monitoring with each versions(i think there are 3) which you need to chose according to your project needs.

- Application Monitoring
- Real User Monitoring
- Network Monitoring

My view: this application performance monitoring tool is one of the best ones I have used...
Dynatrace is better than the other APM tools I had been using
- Monitoring the infrastructure health
- Alerting on abnormal behavior of Applications
- The save/discard on the bottom of screens is very easy to miss when I configure something.
Beginner--just barely getting feet wet
- Easy to install and get started, and easy to go back in and modify
- Excellent support, training, and resources
- Coming from a beginner, so this may not be area for improvement, but it would be nice to be able to search and filter error results better, specifically with SQL errors.
- Storage of logs and being able to get back to them when you need to

Know whether to go for Dynatrace after reading this.
- Dependency identification
- User impact analysis
- Unreliable--sometimes API changes without a notice or mention in release notes
- Pricing--obscured, unclear, and fluffy, a lot of time wasted on every purchase
It is hard for me to tell what scenario is an absolute no-no for using Dynatrace.

Dynatrace: The next wave in IT.
- Monitoring

- Pricing for hosts.
Easy to use, difficult to master
- Installation and implementation
- Anomaly detection and alerting
- Dashboard tools
- Navigation and ease of use
Dynatrace is severely lacking in proper dashboard tools and ease of use, though. It has a steep learning curve; the interface can make it difficult to find exactly what you're looking for at times; often, once you do find what you're looking for, you can't easily put it on a dashboard to make it easier to find and access next time around. Dynatrace is also fairly expensive.
My Dynatrace Experience
- Simple instrumentation
- All-in-one tool
- Database monitoring
- Better pricing for log data ingestion
The not so good: Dynatrace is not great for additional charges for metrics ingestion and the need for additional tools (e.g. log management and analytics). They nickel-and-dime customers.
Dynatrace has great potential for Real User Management (RUM) and Digital Experience Management (DEM) to help IT and the business side collaborate.
Great product
- Monitoring
- Details of errors
- Would like logging to be available for more than 24 hrs
Dynatrace finds issues you didn't know were even there!
