Users new to performance analysis may find the initial learning curve somewhat difficult.

What differentiates Broadcom DX APM from other similar products?

We use several APM features and openshift has greatly improved system visibility. The simple and reliable platform does not have any noticeable impact on system performance. Patching and maintaining agent standards is easy.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The software identifies problems with data structure, database queries or web services. I love the ability to troubleshoot applications to determine root cause and RCA.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The speed of the researcher function must be improved to represent data quickly and with fewer errors. Only well-known programs are supported, so it lacks integration. Java 11 is not supported and requires a lot of local resources.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The open source control panel allows you to combine thousands of eyes, snowflakes, webhock and other SMS solutions, as well as insert data from low-cost providers and nagios to monitor laboratory equipment.

Pros

Reliable
Efficient Service
Security Protects
