FusionReactor Reviews

The most helpful feature of FusionReactor is the fact that you can introspect all the requests running in production. You can easily see how much time it takes to run a specific process, identify its pain points and optimise them. What is highly appreciated is also the profiling functionality! You can even profile your app and dig into very low level optimisations which otherwise would be not easily pinpointed!

What probably needs more rework is the documentation when you are exporting the java cache files from the FR JVM. I spent quite some time looking into what each value ment, which could have been better documented.

Since there is a lack of actual debugging tools for ColdFusion, I consider FusionReactor to be the only tool that actually gives you an insight within your application!

Real time monitoring of processes is a huge benefit. Optimising slow processes is a huge plus.

FusionReactor is a necessary tool if you're running a ColdFusion application of any appreciable size. Not helpful, not convenient. Necessary.

It provides insights and alerts that you're not going to get anywhere else, and in many cases it's the only tool that's going to be able to help you track down obscure bugs, memory leaks, or other issues that make you want to pull your hair out. And on top of that, the team behind it is incredibly responsive and always pushing the product forward.

The price of the Ultimate Edition is the biggest pain point. Configuration and use within a containerized environment continues to improve, but still isn't as strong/easy/helpful and the on-premise FR offering.

If you're considering FusionReactor, talk to the team there and evaluate the product (it's free to trial). They can answer your questions and help you get started. There's no-risk, and the benefits are obvious from the moment you start using it.

The benefit is twofold. 1) FusionReactor provides alerting when there are issues with our applications. We set thresholds for memory usage, request quantity, or request length, and we get alerts when they're exceeded. This is helpful in proactively addressing potential issues. 2) FusionReactor also provides detailed insight into what is going on within applications, which we'll use when we need to track down the cause of a problem or an area that we'd like to optimize.

Don't know, theres too much... but favourites are:

* That we are totally in control of our application server in Realtime

* What the guys of FusionReactor did add to their products in recent years is absolutely awesome. 5 years ago, we thought we have all we need - and what we get now in the newest version is simply mind-blowing

* The guys of FusionReactor are there for you, high competence in support and very effective sales

Sitting here and thinking... honestly, I'm missing absolutely nothing and no feature at the moment.

Take the time to read the docs and to "play around with this tool - not just jump on the first figures and lists you see. It's really worth to understand and see all the options and possibilities FusionReactor offers.

We are not having internal tec guys, but external DevOps team. With FusionReactor we have the tool in our hands to react before any monitoring would report an outage. We share access to the tool with most developers and get the hints and tips, what to work on first, and what queries or transaction are a threat for the future.

This product has saved so much time and effort. It is solid and seems to have little or no impact on the running of our applications. The interface is clean and easy to use, and there are many monitoring options that cover everything we need. The fairly new log archive viewer has also been very helpful.

In our case, we have many instances and servers, and the licensing can seem a bit expensive, especially for developer licenses.

We use FusionReactor primarily for monitoring. When applications have problems we can see exactly what is running or what was running. Being able to go from requests right down to database queries, object calls, and web service calls, we get a good picture of all requests. We also use it to monitor memory usage.

At it's core FisionReactor is just like any other performance monitoring tool with its' Measuring transaction of Memory and CPU Usage, alerting you for performance issues.But It goes beyond with the help of FusionReactor built in debugger and profiler it looks for where and why problems are occurring. Especially for ColdFusion apps.

Data Visualization, Response time and Alerts are some of the very useful database monitoring features for Database administrators.

As a tool FusionReactor have no major flaws it does what it's best at. But all those extra nitty gritty very useful features come at a higher subscription price. It isn't much if you're big organization, but it can restrict your capabilities if you're in a small organisation.

Other than that it's a wonderful tool for performance monitoring.

It's not just about monitoring but it's more about solving possible major blocks to your application or services. It simply makes life easy for developers to exactly know the source of a problem. Look no further for your application monitoring tool, this is more than that.

It simply just reduce our time in pinpointing the problems and their source, CPU and memory optimization has also improved. Dashboard for individual server helps us in managing multiple server. It recognizes sessions and how users are navigating through your application.

FusionReactor allows me to monitor and quickly troubleshoot my ColdFusion and Lucee servers. You simply should not run an enterprise-grade ColdFusion application without it. I has saved me so much time getting to root cause faster. More uptime for my customers, more free time for me. On rare occasions I have had to reach out to Intergral for service or support, hands down, best support in the business. It's also reasonably priced, with many flexible licensing options available. Worth every penny.

Sometimes things are not where I expect them to be in the GUI.

Production web applications are incomplete without FusionReactor. Go ahead and install a cheaper subscription if you need it, or even a trial. That way it will be installed when you need it.

FusionReactor helps me determine where the problem lies, whether it be web server, traffic, Java, or database. I've solved all sorts of problems with FusionReactor over the last 10 years. It's also the go-to for our 24x7 monitoring team, allowing us to remotely troubleshoot and diagnose issues quickly.

Andy McAuliffe answered my original query and persevered with a really positive outcome for the company. He regularly followed up with me to ask how things were going and to check if we had any issues.

I am not in the technical team so cannot answer this fully but from what i understand this was easy to set up

The ability to quickly troubleshoot problems with an instance's heap, cpu, web requests and so much more. The dashboard provides so much information in real-time.

I haven't found anything to dislike about this product.

I have been able to quickly diagnose slow performance with an instance, with specific scripts causing bottlenecks.

FusionReactor allows me to drill down and get unique insight and knowledge into what is happening with my web app and makes troubleshooting a breeze.

As with all software, it takes time to learn but it's worth it.

Take the time to test it out and walk through some of the instructional videos. You'll be amazed at how revealing it is.

I've been able to find bottlenecks in poorly written sql queries, find troublesome functions, and get insight into resource usage.

Notification capability for our servers for multiple and diverse events.

So far it is meeting our expectations, and as we grow more complex we will continue to ensure that the it is able to support our complexity.

Know what you want today and your vision tomorrow and understand if this product will allow you to grow

Monitoring, remediating and debugging issues faster and more efficiently and capability to capture problems at root.

Comprehensive list of features that help pinpoint the source of problems when you face server problems.

Somewhat expensive VS built in coldfusion monitor but worth every penny!

It would often take a lot of trial and error when a problem arose, but with the help of fusion reactor it take a lot of the guesswork out of the way to help fix problems fast.

It has been able to help me analyse,diagnose and keep my servers alive.

Nothing, I dislike nothing about it and it has been a great experience.

I recommend this to any company or organization that want to improve on their data base performance and monitoring.

It has been able to help me monitor Java application server. It has also boost my application performance.

Automated Root Cause Analysis. Provide deep level insight (source code, scope variables, stack traces) whenever a problem, such as an exception or thread latency occurs. Snapshots are triggered automatically.

I do not like the Enterprise Dashboard, for monitoring multiple servers in a single window

Great monitoring tool

The agent enables FusionReactor to instrument any information which is available within the Java container, including CPU, memory, thread information (stack traces) and JDBC calls. Resource Graphs to give a visual representation of a resource over time

The tools is extremely simple to install and configure. The user interface is easy to understand and navigate, and the product itself has a wide and robust feature set.

I have nothing to add as a comment, but I need to hit 40 characters. I dislike nothing.

It has greatly helped our development team by drastically decreasing the amount of time it takes to research and debug errors. It also helps understand our performance characteristics in an easy fashion.

Has the technology to monitor performance level at a high level working to debug issues working against software.

Software shows some grey areas in reference to processing time for performance to complete its initial check.
