Pros
AppDynamics provides great reports to analyze performance of applications. Dashboards provide simple but effective data to get an idea of the application's behavior.
Cons
Price of the AppDynamics is high. But it has many valuable features. This is not for small businesses.

Integration with load runner
Pros
The good thing about the tools is its integration with the load runner tool for performance testing
We can get the exact method and class names from the code which helps in finding the bottleneck
Cons
Some flex calls cannot be captured with the appdynamics so cannot be used for the flex coded developed applications. Extra license cost for the database monitoring can be more structured

AppDynamics Review
Reviewed on 2020/10/10
Monitor applications to make sure they are in a good and healthy state.
Pros
Automatically discover and monitor applications that are deployed.
Get notified when there are health rules that are violated which you can setup yourself.
Capture errors automatically with certain error codes and error logs.
Cons
There are many different tabs and links to click on but most of the time you don't know what they do.
Only use a very small set of features in the overall app due to its complexity

AppDynamics has saved us so much time!
Reviewed on 2017/02/10
It's not the easiest APM out there to use by far. And manually instrumenting non-web software is the pits. But it pays off in droves. We've cut support times by 80%+. Before when we had issues, it involved a lot of trial and error, randomly looking at diff server logs, and manual hunting for problems. Now we know right where to start, and most of the time, even know what exactly is causing the issue. Root cause analysis is quick and easy. Database traces, full cross-app traces, it's all there now and it works amazingly. Now they just need to make it easier to use, because anyone outside of IT is instantly lost.
Pros
Deep, useful analysis of performance of applications. Makes for quick troubleshooting.
Cons
It's not user friendly at all. And instrumentation of non-web apps is a slow painful process.

Software monitoring, event logging, overall status of applications.
Pros
I like that it is really easy to implement, add AppDynamics agent to your code manifest and it starts to monitor your application. Easy to set up triggers for events which should be monitored.
Cons
Sometimes for same url applications it tends to not find requests between multiple applications, but give it some time and it should work as expected.

Utilize AppDynamics to monitoring PROD Java applications
Reviewed on 2018/02/08
Able to see JVM memory usage, garbage collection, JVM error, and applications error per tier to associated systems.
Pros
Easy to install, configure, and manage. Just straight agent that you need to install on your systems and add it as part of your JVM process.
Cons
Nothing to do not like it. Sometimes could be difficult to troubleshoot it if they agent cannot start with JVM process.

Free Lite Version covers many tasks
Reviewed on 2012/08/14
The freemium version of AppDynamics offers many useful tasks for smaller websites. I think to a certain extend it can also be useful for larger ones. Right now, I am using the free version and I think I can get along with that for some time. That´s great!!!
One negative point that I can see is that the Lite version records data from only the last two hours, that´s not enough.

Skeptical at first and now speechless and client ecstatic!
Reviewed on 2018/04/29
One platform that allows you to view key metrics of any "online store/service" in one pane. In a digital economy now and more people embracing the "cloud", which comes at a premium......it's great to be able to "see" in real time not only your infrastructure performance but the performance of the users and the apps and allows you know EXACTLY where the change is needed. Which gives organizations the option of freeing up staff, thus freeing up "salary" and putting it back in their bottom line.
Pros
Single pane viewing of what matters most. Simple click of a button and I can view infrastructure response, user "click thru" i.e. completes to weekly/monthly reporting taking only minutes instead of hours or days. We were able to view what percentage of users visited/clicked thru with device and time of day and able to see their drop point. Immediately saw a trend and got our app team on it and saw almost immediate uptick in customer completes/orders. What sold me was the agentless monitoring of the databases so we could actully see in real time what days/times we needed to apply additional CPU resources.
Cons
I guess I really can't state a "plausible" con......the software goes above and beyond what we had envisioned and actually made everyone's duties easier to complete which we were able to turn reports and analytics around quicker.......so if I had to complain about something.....maybe the price??? But isn't always about "price".

An amazing tool to monitor an application's performance over an extended period of time.
Reviewed on 2018/11/26
I use it everyday to track down following on SQL server:
- SQL statements or stored procedures that are consuming most of the system resources.
- Statistics on procedures, SQL statements, and SQL query plans.
Pros
- Simple and easy to use interface.
- Provides complete visibility on the application's performance (Application Monitoring), database performance, and infrastructure performance ranging from 1 day - 1 year.
- Provides tons of information which can be used to resolve an issue quickly.
Cons
- Although the interface is easy to use, but still it is very hard to find the valuable information quickly many times.
It is highly recommended that a beginner must go through a training program before using this software.
- Some parts of the software still use flash.

Proactive management of software performance/ issues in production
Pros
We started using AppDynamics in 2012 when we inherited code in production that was built by someone else. The level of insights it provided helped us address the production issues quickly and we started using it for all new development and deployment. It helped us move from being reactive to proactive in identifying and managing issues/ bottlenecks
Cons
Like any complex piece of software it requires some learning. However, given the amount of information it generates out of the box it is easy for people not to make changes to configurations. That might result in more noise than news

We use AppDynamics to monitor the performance of our servers and applications. It helps us to find the reasons for the slowdown in servers. Monitoring current servers was not enough for us. Appdynamics made it very easy to find the problem.
Pros
The user interface so everyone can understand. Especially the graphics showing the flow of network traffic between our various monitored servers is great.
Cons
Learning all the features of the application can take time.

Great Tool For Monitoring My Applications
Reviewed on 2020/07/08
As I have started developing our own systems and web applications internally, it has become essential that I have consistently capable tools for monitoring the effectiveness and engagement of my apps. AppDynamics has provided that capability and much more.
Pros
Wide breadth of services and function coupled with firs class customer services. They've been in the market for a long time, so there's a firmly established user community.
Cons
Some of the data that I need gets lost on all of the functions. Curse of the blessing, I guess. Otherwise, I have no issues.
