Overall Satisfaction with Dynatrace

Dynatrace is available throughout the organization, but is deployed based on infrastructure of the departments and applications which would like to on-board. We use it for Application Performance Monitoring and User session tracking in addition to standard infrastructure monitoring and alerting.
  • Application Performance Monitoring
  • Real User Session Monitoring
  • Some automation friendly features currently missing
  • More granular user permissions
  • Helped debug otherwise unknown and hard to diagnose mobile app issue saving a lot of time and money
  • Quickly notified operations team of a downed server reducing MTTR
Datadog is a little harder to use from an end user standpoint but is probably a little more flexible from a script/automation perspective; it has more granular permissions but default access is not ideal for our usage. Sensu doesn't do application performance monitoring. Dynatrace is simply a more complete package.
I contact them a lot as a new administrator to the product and they always respond promptly, effectively and I usually have my answer within the hour.

Application Performance Monitoring! It's great for that, let's you know very quickly when it detects a problem, based on very reasonable and customizable heuristics. Easy to deploy! Just a single agent to install, and it the auto-discovers other components, services, and infrastructure automatically. Real User monitoring! Find out insights about how users are actually using your website or mobile app and find out quickly when and where issues arise in your mobile app infrastructure.
