Infrastructure and Application Performance Monitoring (APM)

Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds AppOptics

We use the APM for a single department so far. It helps us dig into performance degradation events of our java web services.
  • Compares performance to previous day/week.
  • Shows detail of traced requests including DB queries and cache calls.
  • Performs quickly and has little lag time between reported detail.
  • Report filtering could be more powerful.
  • Date comparison options like 4 weeks ago instead of 1 month.
  • Faster turnaround time during performance events.
  • Improve efficiency of services lowering resource usage.
APM over a highly used java service will perform quickly and efficiently.
