### "Très bon outil mais dégradation du support"

December 17, 2025

4.0

Pros

J'aime beaucoup cet outil, je le trouve très performant. Le système d'alertes est très efficace, les analyses d'incident peuvent être très poussées.

Cons

Je vois un nette dégradation dans le support. L'année passé, j'étais bluffée de l'efficacité du support et trouvais systématiquement réponses à mes blocages. Maintenant, je passe des heures à expliquer et réexpliquer mes problème, à un, deux, trois différentes personnes du support, sans aucun résultat !

### "Dynatrace Review: A comprehensive, AI-Powered APM solution for Modern Enterprises"

January 10, 2025

5.0

Dynatrace is a powerhouse in the APM space as it's offering automation, scalability and intelligence. The long-term benefits in terms of operational efficiency and reliability make it a worthwhile investment for the enterprise which are committed to achieve excellence in application performance and digital transformation.

Pros

What I liked the most about Dynatrace is its being a robust and intelligent platform for monitoring and optimizing application performance, infrastructure and user experience. Dynatrace is excellent with its AI engine, the engine that automates the RCA (root cause analysis), as it can replace the traditional monitoring tools by being able to identify and prioritize the real problems, offering actionable insights without requiring manual interventions. Also, the End-to-End observability is capable of covering applications, microservices and networks. The platform's OneAgent tech is simplifying the development by automatically discovering and instrumenting all components in the environment.

Cons

While Dynatrace provide an immense value, by I think the pricing model can be improved as we saw the cost quickly scale in environments with large number of monitored entities. Also, there are occasional limitations in tailoring specific metrics or visualizations to unique use cases.

### "Solid Tool but not appropriate for small teams"

April 11, 2025

3.0

Overall it's a decent observability tool that helps us catch performance issues before they became problems. It does what it says, but you have to invest time upfront to really get the most out of it. Support was ok, not great.

Pros

The dashboards are really easy to customize and give a good overview of our system's health. The AI-driven alerts saved us a lot of time when it came to root cause analysis. It integrates well with our cloud env too.

Cons

Licensing is get confusing and feels expensive for small teams. Some of the UI sections lag a bit, and the learning curve for advanced features is steeper than expected. The documentation could be clearer in places.

April 15, 2025

My experience is more that positive. Using this, we were able to identify problems that we may have take a tremendous time to find out without.

Pros

Cons

Well, the price could be more aggressive. It worths it, but remains expensive. There could be more options to reduce this, based on what we really use.

In my company, Dynatrace is utilized to screen the execution of our portable and online applications for our clients, much appreciated to this analytics device, we were able to degree the activity and its impact on our applications, as well as find issues and take measures to move forward the encounters of our users/customers.

### "An excellent monitoring tool for keeping an eye on your applications."

March 29, 2022

With Dynatrace's help, we can now discover problems in software development and production more quickly and accurately than ever before. Dynatrace is a comprehensive multitasking tool that adds to anomaly detection and prediction skills, making it a powerful and effective tool that ensures to a large extent the essential workflow.

Pros

For any work system imbalance, Dynatrace is a complete and effective solution that automates and intelligently saves employees' time, covers all job levels, and gives a good view of all team members. In addition to providing easy-to-use tools and features for optimal tracking and analysis speed, Dynatrace's contribution is greatly appreciated. To ensure that all operations are performed to the acceptable quality standards, Dynatrace is an essential instrument for corporate sustainability. Dynatrace's artificial intelligence system can do a lot with it, since it calculates, analyzes, and fixes problems.

Cons

In general, I can't say enough good things about Dynatrace. It's a terrific tool, but it takes time and effort to develop the skills required to use it well. It annoys me that Dynatrace sometimes can take a long time to identify and analyze processes, which can disappoint you.

### "Great Tool for Monitoring Services and Applications"

September 21, 2022

4.0

We adopted dynatrace in our company two years ago due to its AI powered monitoring capabilities of our infrastructure.It has been extremely helpful in enabling us to provide flawless products and services to our clients. It has enabled us to maintain stable and secure websites and applications. It has been on the forefront in enabling us to achieve better customer satisfaction and experiences

Pros

What I like most about dynatrace is how it uses artificial intelligence to provide you with comprehensive analytics about the performance of your infrastructure. Dynatrace is very important for our devops teams as it helps them in figuring out root cause analysis of problems arising from our apps. I also like its flexibility whereby you can deploy it on premise or use it as a software as a service. I like how powerful its automation is as it can monitor thousands of systems at a go.

Cons

You may require indepth and expansive training on its usage so as to optimize it usage. It is also pricey in comparison with similar monitoring software. It also has bugs from time to time which can give false alarms but their frequent updates try to solve this issues. Aside from that it is a powerful monitoring tool that has served us well.

### "It makes me really sad to see such good products go downhill over the last few years. "

May 4, 2018

3.0

We are able to track availability/performance and find the root cause of both performance and availability issues.

Pros

We selected the Dynatrace APM product over ten years ago, and I have been using their synthetic product since 2008. I love the ability to find the root cause of a problem using these products. They are both really good tools that are wonderful for getting to the core of the issue.

Cons

I have used the original Dynatrace APM product and the Gomez Synthetic products for almost ten years. I absolutely cannot stand the way they change the menus around with the various releases. I used to be able to walk people through how to find things over the phone, but now it is almost impossible. These user design changes are not what a system administrator should be spending their time learning. I might as well select a new product that doesn't change so that I only have to learn one more additional system. We have also lost features over the years that we have used, and the reports and maintenance window configuration have an awful time with time zones, even though they have drop-downs for each report. This was once a very dependable product that has lost its way in trying to add new features and alter the user experience. Support has dropped off significantly as well. I used to be able to email or call support, now there is no option to email and when calling support they walk you through creating a case in their customer portal before even attempting to hear my question/problem. We also used to have weekly calls with our account manager to review problems and upcoming features. I have been transferred to a new account manager more times in the last few years than I have even spoken to them.
