SteelCentral AppInternals and Aternity have been utilized by users to gain comprehensive visibility into the performance of complex applications, allowing them to identify and resolve issues efficiently. With SteelCentral AppInternals, users have been able to diagnose and analyze every transaction within their applications, including logs, network data, and payload information. This has enabled them to trace individual transactions and pinpoint the source of issues, whether in the application code, server, or network.

Aternity has served as a real-time monitoring tool for business-critical applications, offering detailed information on security, application performance, and resource usage. Users have leveraged Aternity for proactive monitoring across critical business components, ensuring that defined availability thresholds are met. It has also provided users with the ability to monitor system performance for virtual servers and applications, focusing on CPU and memory utilization, running shell scripts, and checking the status of Windows services on multiple servers.

Furthermore, these tools have addressed specific challenges faced by users. For instance, the lack of visibility into the stack trace of various applications prompted the purchase of SteelCentral alongside a Riverbed device for network monitoring. The tool successfully helped in identifying and resolving network latency issues, resulting in immediate improvements in bandwidth.

Overall, SteelCentral AppInternals and Aternity have proven valuable in enhancing user experiences by providing comprehensive visibility into application performance and enabling efficient issue resolution.

Effective in reducing application downtime: Users have consistently found the application to be highly effective in reducing application downtime and improving troubleshooting. They have reported significant improvements in their ability to identify and address issues promptly, leading to enhanced system reliability.

Holistic view of system performance: Reviewers across the board appreciate the comprehensive view of system performance provided by the application. It offers valuable insights into various aspects of their IT infrastructure, enabling them to gain a deeper understanding of overall system health and make informed decisions for optimization.

Useful stability index: The inclusion of a stability index for each monitored server has proven extremely useful for users. This feature allows them to quickly identify servers experiencing stability issues or potential problems, empowering them to take proactive measures before any major disruptions occur.

Complicated Setup: Some users have found the tool to be complicated to use at first and mentioned that it required a good amount of training to set up different use cases and monitoring parameters. This complexity in setup can be a barrier for new users and may require additional time and resources.

Slow Performance: Users have experienced slow performance and sluggish user experience due to high CPU resource demands for monitoring tasks. This slowdown can impact productivity and efficiency, causing frustration among users who expect smooth and responsive performance.

Higher Cost Compared to Competitors: Some users have mentioned that the platform is slightly costly compared to other products in the market. The higher cost may deter potential customers who are seeking more affordable alternatives or value-for-money options.

  • Provides holistic view of system performance
  • Stability index for each server being monitored
  • 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

Pricey but worth it

  • Root cause finding/remediation (it goes beyond analysis).
  • Shows latency between applications and servers.
  • Identifies long-running SQL queries, and puts the onus back on developers to clean up their SQL code.
  • Cost - Riverbed is really proud of their products, and the price shows.
  • More "point and click" repair opportunities.
  • Integration with Cisco DNA, tell which devices could have issues based upon the IOS version, etc.

  • Full stack visibility into application data is excellent.
  • Transaction element is very detailed and extremely helpful in diagnosing issues.
  • The support element from Riverbed has been great, including the turn around time for the few issues we had.
  • We found the platform slightly costly for the return. Having tried multiple products this was the best of the lot.
  • We did find a few applications where the diagnostic data wasn't overly insightful.

  • Transaction tracing is the most useful. Being able to have the transaction stitched together so we can see where the problem is has proven invaluable.
  • Support for PHP, DB, and other applications need to be supported. We have a broad range of applications that we would like visibility into but the list of currently supported applications is very small.
  • 9/10 - We had a couple of issues that required opening up tickets. The Riverbed support engineers usually resolve issues in a timely manner.
  • App Dynamics should try to find some measure of support or functionality in an SAP and People soft environments - however with the introduction of C++ agents - the People Soft realm will be covered shortly.
  • Additional support for next-gen mobile platforms also needs to be high on the roadmap prioritization.
