Depending on how you set it up, it can be helpful with the trace IDs and find were an issue could be laying, but no info is stored so you see the path but not the data issue. Pros It it fast. It helps to keep logs, query them and monitor logs or services such as with HTTP monitors or alerts based on metrics. It support intelligent monitoring based on the baseline of the application. You can create dashboards such as Graphana to monitor different systems. Cons It has a high learning curve. If you are coming from matlock or other monitoring tools it will be difficult to understand and find locations. After some months of usage I have some trouble finding things. The AI assistant is useless, better use ChatGPT or Copilot for help. No monitoring of data, just logs or application endpoints. No connectivity for databases. Switched from [Grafana](https://www.capterra.com/p/196036/Grafana-Enterprise/) Better integration in one tool instead of checking different places Review Source KS Kareem S.

Pros i just put one agent and it finds everything. like, everything. all our servers, the apps, the database calls. i dont have to configure nothing. the ai part, davis, it just tells me "hey this is broken" before users even call me. its crazy smart. saves my life. Cons the cost is... wow. very very expensive. my manager always talks about the bill. and sometimes its too much information. my screen is just full of lines and charts and i get a headache trying to find one simple thing.

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.

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.

A developer can track what are the failures that occurred and where the application accessed from and by whom. We can add a dynatrace cookie to our application and we can access it either in appmon client or the one agent view where we can set up the monitors of what needs to be tracked. This can also be linked with openshift or kubernetes so that we get to know whether there is any pod restarts. Cons It requires digging into pure paths to find the information but once we set up the monitors in dashboard it makes it easy to monitor and track performance.

Director IT Used the software for: ### "How Ruxit made my life easier" January 20, 2015 5.0 We were using NewRelic, but we never got the full picture of our production environment. Their pricing model was an issue too and we were unable to put all our servers on their tool due to the high cost. So we were limited in what we could do. Their dashboard is also almost non-existent. It would require us to build our own which we did not want to. Installation complexity and maintenance was an issue. Ruxit claimed to be super simple and we thought let’s try it. Honestly we were amazed by how simple it really it is. The other motivation was the design of the product itself. Everybody can show charts and metrics but ruxit’s infographics are amazing. The dashboarding is simply best in class. Review Source SA Shawn A.
