Self monitoring of the monitoring-application needs to improve.

I am part of an SRE team and we use it extensively to troubleshoot application level issues along with any network and infrastructure isues. It also helps us in tracing the problematic path.
One of the best avaliable APM, tracing and analysis tool
What do you like best about the product?
When it comes to tracing calls and find root case if your potential issues as a QA in addition to visualization for response times, latency and APM infrastructure as well. Alerts also is a good thing to mention with wide avaliable integrations upon configured event+alert.
What do you dislike about the product?
Without a doubt data retention + performance upon tracing old logs considering huge streams + lack of tracing response message not only ly error log.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alerts and monitoring our services and API with integration to Opsgenie and Slack for example + tracing/investigating/analysis potential issues and dashboards as well.

The Best to capture the API calls
What do you like best about the product?
1.As used one year , This is the best software to capture the API call requests.
2.As a software test Engineer, We should know the reason for failures when the API doesn't work. Using Instana is helps us a lot to analyze the logs for failed API calls
3.We can use LIVE option to track the calls that triggering in real time
4.Best thing is we can filter the calls by date, time, year etc... Which is must needed
5.Using Instana is reduced the extra time effort to analyze the API failures

A robust platform for end-to-end APM on your stacks
What do you like best about the product?
G2 is a robust, modern platform that allows you to get great observability into applications. It's built with modern systems in mind — distributed systems, APIs, etc. It has a great UI and myriad integrations, along with great SDKs to incorporate into any stack and/or language.

No TypeScript support for Lambda applications, but that is a minor quip.

The ability to get instant visibility into our overall infrastructure, find bottlenecks and be proactive in issue resolution.
Applications debugging tool
What do you like best about the product?
I have frequently using this tool now a days for issues debugging and got RCA exactly for that issues. Instead of raising a bugs alone, we have added some more details so it is very useful whoever going to fix that issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
Though using this tool regularly sometimes expected logs are not catching properly for example if we try with 'traceid' it not captured and still improve user friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We got the exact reason if we faced any issues. Nowadays by default checking these logs and add required details along with Instana logs. Sometimes it captured all behind services and how the flow is working.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very helpful for debugging but need to understand how the tool should use before starting any new users.

Efficient APM Tool with cool features for users
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is simple, clean, and very intuitive. I have been using Instana for almost a year now. I really like the simple Plug and Play features which is publicly available open source package.
What do you dislike about the product?
Compared to competitors like NewRelic, It would be nice to have a better query tool.
It should also have more charts types like in DataDog.
I think due to multiple instances , sometime s the machine heats up at times thus slowing the machine overall.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Instana to perform application performance monitoring. It is a good tool just like Grafana and Appdynamics.
We want to understand the performance of the deployment at the module level . Instana is very good at drilling down the performance at the minute level.
