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.

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.

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.

The best experience in application monitoring.
SteelCentral AppInternals is in the company to provide visibility into the performance of multilayer and complexity applications. It aims to show a detailed picture of what each team needs to identify and solve their problems. And all of this in a collaborative and optimized way that makes life easier for everyone.
- Try to end application downtime.
- Optimize and improve troubleshooting.
- Detect and identify existing problems.
- A little complicated at first to use.
- We found it a bit slow to give the answers.
- An overall improvement in transaction performance.
- Improved security because of the excellent monitoring that is performed.
- SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor, Dynatrace Application Monitoring and AppDynamics
The three tools mentioned above are great too. All deliver and fulfill their functionality well. But we chose Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals because we received referrals from other friends who work at other major companies around the world and use this solution and have never had any problems. So for reliability we chose this one.

Pricey but worth it
SteelCentral was purchased in addition to a riverbed device for network monitoring. New owners for the company wanted serious visibility into their custom-written applications and performance around said applications. Right out of the gate we were able to trace down a network latency issue between our database server, and our application server (.NET). The resolution of which was simple and gave an immediate bandwidth increase.
- 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.
- Immediate ROI by finding long-running SQL queries and putting the onus back on the developer to tighten their code (IE - It's not the network!).
- Root cause finding (This goes beyond analysis). Riverbed was great at finding where problems were hiding so we didn't have to do too much hunting. I can estimate that there were 2-300 man-hours saved on one project alone.
- I spent more time convincing my client they needed this than I did in resolving their issues. This was a serious win for my client and for me.
- Riverbed is on-premise. I don't have to worry about my agents not connecting to the app dynamics cloud or a cloud agent not working and not updating information.
- Integration with an already-existing Riverbed appliance that was already on-site and operational.
- The cost was better on an ongoing basis. My client was more cap-x friendly than op-ex friendly.
