DTSaas: Does not have all the features that Appmon has. may be in the future releases it may have all features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have identified & fixed following performance issue in non-prod before we release app:
Identified memory leaks that caused heap utilization maxed out.
Identified thread bottlenecks at JVM
identified JDBC connection pool limits
there are so many.... :-)

Ability to get a detailed view of entire cloud infrastructure and monitoring.
What do you like best about the product?
Like the dashboard where I'm able to see issues as they happen. Ability to visualize entire cloud infrastructure for every environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product has so many features and sometimes it can get overwhelming to find exactly what you are looking for. For example, it was not easy to find my application logs for a certain micro service easily when I started using Dynatrace.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring.
Performance Engineer actively using DynaTrace
What do you like best about the product?
I like the level of details provided by the tool, the simplicity and user friendly interface of the DynaTrace.
The most important part is the purepaths and breakdown on the method level, the response times and the resource utilizations as well as heap size monitoring. Reporting is my favorite part as well.

What do you dislike about the product?
Probably the set up agents and filtering the requests are the most challenging part for me. The uncertainty about the data collected and their definitions are among the challenges as well. The other negative part for me is the time it takes to generate reports for longer time windows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am dealing with a lot of performance engineering issues which requires system performance as well as application performance. System configuration and application tune ups.
Systems engeneer

What do you dislike about the product?
What I do not like is the system is that the interface is still a bit slow.

Dynatrace APM
What do you like best about the product?
UEM and Hot Spots. Shows actual performance
What do you dislike about the product?
The web interface needs more features from the java client. It would be beneficial to be able to administer Dynatrace completely from a browser.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Memory leaks, performance issues and unhandled exceptions. We've found issues that were undiscovered until Dynatrace alerted on them.
Full view of apps.
What do you like best about the product?
WebUI experience, purepath and dashboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of additional funtionalities which is available in competitors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
App monitoring end to end.
System Engineer
What do you like best about the product?
The way to find possible issues, it is pretty easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes an application seems to be very heavy even when it meets the requirements given by Dynatrace.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can improve the latency from our java modules, we have a huge gain in performance this year.
Excellent APM product that is easy to deploy, manage and use
What do you like best about the product?
I really liked how easy it was to deploy the SaaS vesion of Dynatrace in our environment. We have a lot of tools that have plenty of capability but they don't get a whole lot of use because they would require someone who is an expert to use them. With the SaaS version of Dynatrace, all the admin functions are taken care of by the Dynatrace team (updates, patches, new features, bugs, etc.) and our small shop can focus on getting valuable metrics, alerts and issue resolution from the product. That is very important because despite how many features and how powerful a product is, it will only return value to an organization if it is being integrated and used regularly for its intended purpose; Dynatrace makes that easy for us.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I had to pick something I dislike, it is that it requires manual intervention to uninstall the cloud agent from servers you want it removed from. The installation part is the easiest of any linux tool I've ever installed, so I don't have a problem with that at all. What i have a problem with, is that in order to 100% remove the product, you will need to manually go to each machine and uninstall the cloud agent... I wish there was a feature that would allow a Dynatrace administrator to remotely uninstall / remove the cloud agent from the Dynatrace management console without having to physically log on to each server to achieve that task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving issues that we've experienced for a long time with storage volumes being slow and over-saturated and SQL databases not scaling properly when under load. We're also monitoring web services and using synthetic web checks to actively monitor specific parts of our production website and production applications. With the SaaS version of Dynatrace we started monitoring our VMware hypervisors and that gave us system specific metrics into our virtual environments.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My best recommendation for someone considering it is to deploy the trial version as a proof of concept on your non-production systems and ask for assistance from their pre-sales team if needed. Another thing I strongly recommend is that you attend some of the regional meetups and seminar that Dynatrace organizes, to not only get a feel of the product and the community around it from other actual users but also harvest other ideas and capabilities that Dynatrace could be used for.
