Overall Satisfaction with Dynatrace

We're Currently using Dynatrace for IT to support our Underwriting Platform and the suite of applications.
We've only been using it for half a year, but our intention is to roll it out across more departments and workflows as we gain experience with the tool. We're using it to diagnose performance issues in our applications, notify us of outages and crashes for essential services and hosts, and give us performance baselines for business transactions.
  • User session monitoring, being able to see individual users, their workflows and the speeds and issues they may have encountered.
  • Application level monitoring, overall trends for applications across hours, days, weeks and months for comparison purposes.
  • Some features have moved locations following updates and the communication could have been improved.
  • Some functionality has been missing or removed without explanation, nothing major but minor annoyances. Some has been added back shortly after but not everything.
  • Diagnosing problem areas has lead to application improvements resulting in overall faster response for some of our crucial business applications.
  • Peace of mind monitoring a wide variety of services and hosts, rather than needing a wider variety of different applications.
AppDynamics was more business focused, less performance focused from the POC that we did.
Performance was our primary focus, Dynatrace offered more options for analyzing and finding areas of improvement. Dynatrace also offered business metrics as well.
All interactions with staff members, whether in person, phone, email, forums or chat, has been nothing but positive. Very knowledgeable, very friendly, prompt responses. Lots of online tools like courses, videos and documentation available as well.

Dynatrace is able to diagnose and alert different people and teams about issues immediately.
