Overall Satisfaction with AppDynamics

AppDynamics is used as the Application Performance Monitoring solution. AppDynamics helps in monitoring and identifying the root cause of the problems in business-critical applications. This application is used by the Application developer and command center team to have visibility around the business-critical application. From the customer's point of view, it helps in measuring SLI and SLOs.

AppDynamics is still a good solution as this is one the earliest tool available in the APM space and people are used to this Application usage. However other products are also doing great as Dynatrace is the biggest competitor since it adds on all the AppDynamics features plus it gives additional information readily available. Now Honeycomb is also rising in terms of SLI and SLO objectives.

Yes

Would you buy AppDynamics again?

Yes

No doubt AppDynamics is high tech APM solution that offers easy to configure application space monitoring, tracing, mapping also some sort of event collection and monitoring, however, it lacks certain things which I believe are pretty important as the new standards are being evolved for business means one such example is Observability i.e. visibility of not just application but underlying infra, users, platform and correlation among them is what still required in AppDynamics.
