Dynatrace is easier to use than AppDynamics.

Dynatrace makes monitoring a breeze.
They complement each other. Dynatrace and Prometheus have different goals I think.

Best APM Tool That's More Than an APM Tool
Dynatrace blows every other APM tool I've ever used out of the water.
February 08, 2020
Dynatrace Delivers
Dynatrace provides the best insights into our environment from end to end. It provides user sessions throughout the application so, we can see exactly what users are doing and potentially not only fix problems but provide improvements before any issues arise. There is no simpler product to deploy and get so much information from than Dynatrace.

Dynatrace Review
Dynatrace is superior to all other products on the market.

Great product--does much more than APM
- DX Application Performance Management (formerly CA APM)
Dynatrace is much easier and more thorough than DX APM.

Dynatrace is an invaluable tool that my team would be lost without
Nagios still is used today as our main alerting tool. It does repeat static checks well, but Dynatrace blows it out of the water when it comes to connecting all the app dependencies together. Also, Davis makes MTTR and root cause analysis simple compared to Nagios.

Dynatrace: Easy to Get Started
Compared to other vendors, the Dynatrace sales team was very responsive and was able to set up demos and POC quickly.
I felt Dynatrace's deployment model was much simpler for our environment.
February 07, 2020
Dynatrace is a solid offering, and its ease of use is unmatched.
Dynatrace offered the most robust, easiest to use/install, and fastest-to-live product compared to many other vendors we evaluated.

Dynatrace beats the others with Davis and the AI used to auto-detect problems, easy install, all out-of-the-box metrics and functionalities.

Dynatrace: Great tool, great company
When it came down to ease of implementation and ease of use, Dynatrace was the clear winner. Working with the sales team was easy as well. Of course, they could not give the tool away, but I felt like they worked as well as they could with us to get us a price we could live with.

Dynatrace is the future!
The others don't have the tools that Dynatrace has, nor the AI features. They couldn't compare to Dynatrace when it came to troubleshooting options or log analytics. They also didn't have the same level of vendor support as Dynatrace has given us. Dynatrace is the future, and I look forward to working with them more.

Dynatrace is Dynamite
The two are completely different.

Dynatrace, from one user's perspective
Datadog is a good system but does lack a lot of features provided by Dynatrace, and more importantly, it does not have the support Dynatrace provides. Many other systems, Zabbix, Nagio, AppDynamics also exist, but so far, Dynatrace really shines above them all.

Dynatrace Review
Dynatrace has replaced our old monitoring product (CA Wily) and completely transformed the Infrastructure and Container monitoring.
February 07, 2020
Great product, but pricey
- AppDynamics and New Relic
Dynatrace was the easiest to use. AppDynamics was a close second. The Dynatrace AI agent was extremely impressive. Others are working on it but don't seem to be there yet. The Dynatrace roadmap and vision (coupled with execution to this point) matched where we were going the best with cloud and kubernetes playing the most key roles. New Relic required far too much code instrumentation and changes to get the detail we got out-of-the-box with both AppDynamics and Dynatrace. New Relic and AppDynamics were both more competitively priced though--Dynatrace is pricey.

Intelligent Automation
- Kaseya Network Monitor and SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor
These technologies seem to be primarily reactive. Kaseya alerting is particularly difficult to set up and can create very chatty alerts with too much information. These products do not recognize relationships between applications. The ability to integrate log monitoring into Dynatrace's event correlation makes this product superior to the problem analysis offered by these other products.

Before, when using APM in New Relic and SolarWinds for infrastructure, it was always difficult to pinpoint where issues came from. Now, the conversation starts out with people from those 2 groups talking on the same page with the same data, thanks to Dynatrace.

Dynatrace user of in-house implementation
Not sure about overall capabilities between these two products. We mainly focused on APM. Switched because of licensing issues.
February 07, 2020
Dynatrace is an essential & valuable part of our services portfolio.
Dynatrace tops AppDynamics in ease of implementation and ease of use, detail of insights, and possibilities of out-of-the-box insights.

We have lots of tools for monitoring but have never had one where it does almost everything, like Dynatrace, before.
February 07, 2020
Dynatrace is the market leader in APM tools.
- AppDynamics and New Relic
Dynatrace is easy to on-board. Easy and quick to find any performance issues. Back-tracking of dependency calls is easy. I think these are the features missing from other APM tools.
February 07, 2020
Robust solution, but need to prove a better business case.
Our technical team showed me the completeness of Dynatrace against the competitors. Also, the breadth of services Dynatrace offered was a selling point.
