Mark Sauer View profile

Director of Information Technology in Information Technology at TransPak (1001-5000 employees employees)

Pros

Visibility at every layer of the technology stack
Super easy installation through a single agent across every platform, to include server and workstation.
Easy ability to navigate through the interface and drill down to the underlying problem - without a masters degree in anything. I was up and running the day I installed the first agent.
Automated alerts to notify you when issues arise - before someone tells you the system crashed or is slow.
The ability to see the interconnected system of systems, and to see the relationships of one event on other services.

Cons

Cost. It is expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Return on Investment

We have transitioned from being reactionary to proactive in identifying problems before they impact our business
I can detect when a user PC is performing poorly, and leaving the user frustrated with their experience. In these cases, I either replace the workstation or we can go in and fix the memory or HDD problem. The user would have suffered through before Dynatrace.
We spend less time trying to figure out what is wrong and more time just fixing the issue. Dynatrace alerts us, focuses us to the root cause, so we can correct efficiently.
The ability to drill down right to the SQL code to fix poorly written / executed SQL queries gives us the tools to concentrate our developer resources on those application areas that impact users the most.

Professional in Information Technology (5001-10,000 employees employees)

Pros

Server and services monitoring. We catch the problem prior to it becoming serious
Network monitoring. If our connection goes down, we can trace it to the source immediately
Database monitoring. DB failure rates are shown as well as where it has failed.

Cons

Closer to realtime monitoring. 30 minute monitoring window is not helpful. I don't need to wait half an hour to have the monitoring updated

Return on Investment

Troubleshooting has become more directional. Instead of guessing what the problem is, Dynatrace will show you what the problem is.
Determining the issue during troubleshooting is a bit of a learning curve. Once you know how to get to the problem, then the app is perfect.
