Application Manager Software

The descriptions of some errors are a bit exaggerated, and performance on some sessions tends to lag. One common issue I see is that we have an endpoint that returns a 400 by design, but it's picked up as a top-priority error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Technical management has had poor insight into errors on a large scale, as well as trends of these over time. The dashboards they can create in LogRocket have improved visibility and confidence in our product.Also, we are able to see pain points from a user's perspective in terms of clicks, abandoned flows, and etc. Before adding LogRocket to our stack, we had no idea what users were actually doing in our portal.

The biggest challenge is balancing observability with cost. As applications scale and generate more logs, metrics, and traces, it's important to optimize what is collected to keep costs under control. Creating advanced dashboards and custom queries may require additional expertise. Managing data retention and ingestion costs requires careful planning. Some alerts need fine-tuning to avoid unnecessary notifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

New Relic solves the problem of limited visibility into application performance and system health. Instead of relying on separate tools for logs, metrics, and performance monitoring, it provides a unified platform to monitor applications, infrastructure, and user experience. Detects performance bottlenecks and application issues in real time. Centralizes metrics, traces, logs, and error data in one platform. Helps identify the root cause of production incidents faster. Provides proactive alerts to minimize downtime. Monitors APIs, databases, infrastructure, and application performance from a single dashboard. In my day-to-day work as an SDET, I use New Relic to monitor application performance after deployments, investigate API latency, analyze errors, and validate system stability. Having end-to-end visibility into application behavior helps me collaborate more effectively with developers and operations teams. The biggest benefit is faster incident resolution. By correlating performance metrics, traces, and errors in one place, New Relic reduces troubleshooting time, improves application reliability, and helps deliver a better experience for end users.

Sometimes crashes get grouped wrong and we miss critical issues. The Android SDK adds almost 2MB to our APK size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our Android app serves thousands of sellers across India on various devices. Sentry shows me crashes happening on random phones running Android 8 that never show up in our test labs. Last month, it caught a memory leak only occurring after product searches, impossible to catch in regular testing. I've started writing targeted test cases based on Sentry data, reducing our crash rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are only a few things that I was not satisfied with Datadog, those are.

Cost is somewhat high; we have to pay even we utilize the resources or not.

And the main con is the customer support; they only deal via email, and we have to dump the log data into their storage. They first analyse the logs and come back to us; it will typically take 24-36 hours, which has an impact on the clients. Also, they only come on a call on production issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wide range, like we need to sit in front of the servers or app all the time. If there is any error, it will send an email or notifications regarding the error. So no need to worry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CubeAPM doesn’t have an app monitoring module as of yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CubeAPM helps us detect and resolve performance issues across our e-commerce platform before they affect customers.

Earlier, we struggled with identifying slow APIs, checkout delays, and backend errors during traffic peaks. With CubeAPM’s unified visibility across metrics, logs, and traces, our teams can now pinpoint the root cause instantly.

The biggest benefit has been a noticeable drop in incident resolution time (MTTR) and smoother customer journeys during sale events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like how I can't really customize status.xocat.online, so that could be improved. I mostly don't like the customization because I have to pay to access that, but it would be great if we could build our own website instead of just being stuck with Better Stack's template, even if it was paid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Better Stack to monitor my website's downtimes, saving me from having to build my own monitoring site, which I couldn't do. It's invaluable as it informs both me and my users about site issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the website will just not load, and I have to wait quite a few times. Also, Metric Explorer sometimes crashes if it has a tad bit more data to share. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Coralogix for monitoring logs, alerting, and tracing, enhancing developer work and on-call team efficiency. It also optimizes costs with the TCO optimizer and integrates seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the licensing and pricing model complex, and it's sometimes difficult to predict as our environment scales. There's a learning curve for new users due to the large number of features and configuration options. Creating highly customized dashboards and reports can sometimes be less intuitive than expected. Improving ease of use, reporting flexibility, and cost transparency would definitely make the overall experience better. The main areas of improvement are pricing and transparency, ease of onboarding for new users, and more intuitive dashboard customization. While the platform is very powerful, simplifying access would enhance my user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Dynatrace for application performance monitoring and infrastructure monitoring. It analyzes logs, detects issues proactively, performs root cause analysis, and offers end-to-end visibility. This helps reduce downtime, improve system reliability, and ensures application health, user experience, and resource utilization are well managed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main area that could be improved is the initial learning curve. Instana provides a large amount of data, but the interface can feel quite dense when you first start using it, especially when navigating between services, traces, infrastructure metrics, and incidents. It was not always immediately clear which view was best for a particular task, such as investigating a slow transaction, checking infrastructure health, or understanding the dependencies between services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use IBM Instana for real-time application performance monitoring, reducing investigation time, identifying bottlenecks faster, and understanding issue impacts across our environment. It solves problems with limited visibility in complex applications by connecting traces, metrics, and dependencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main downside of OpManager Nexus is the upfront effort required to tune alert thresholds so you don’t end up with notification overload. Some of the deeper configuration areas—such as custom SNMP rules and report templates—also feel cluttered and harder to navigate than the primary NOC views. In addition, on-premise installations can demand substantial hardware resources, since telemetry data accumulates in the database over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

OpManager helped us address three major business challenges:

Pricing / ROI: It replaced our expensive legacy monitoring tools with a more cost-effective, device-based licensing model, which significantly improved our return on investment.

Support / Onboarding: Its automated discovery features made onboarding quick and painless, and we were backed up by responsive vendor customer service.

AI / Intelligence: The machine-learning adaptive thresholds reduced our alert fatigue by automatically distinguishing genuine anomalies from routine traffic spikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing model based on sensor count can become expensive as your environment grows. Every new device, interface, or metric you want to track adds up quickly, so scaling monitoring across multiple sites requires careful planning around sensor usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, before PRTG we usually only realized something was wrong after it had already impacted users. A lot of it came down to manual checks and guesswork. Now, with the alerts we’ve set up, we get an early warning before things go south—whether it’s a server running low on disk space, a slow link, or a device that stops responding. That has already saved us more than once from a real incident. It takes a lot of stress off the team because we’re not constantly firefighting anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is how complex it can be to configure and troubleshoot certain monitoring parameters and custom metrics. Some of the more advanced features may require extra setup steps or a higher level of technical understanding than expected. Clearer user guidance and stronger documentation, along with a more streamlined configuration process, would make the platform even more user-friendly and efficient.

Site24x7 helps us address the challenge of continuously monitoring and managing a large IT infrastructure by giving real-time visibility into servers, networks, databases, applications, and other critical components. It enables us to spot issues early with proactive alerts, pinpoint potential performance bottlenecks, and cut down the time spent on troubleshooting. As a result, our incident response improves, downtime is minimized, and our team can maintain stronger overall infrastructure availability and performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing major to report so far—the platform works as expected. One minor suggestion: more detailed documentation around custom metrics would be helpful, especially for setting them up and understanding how they’re meant to be used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Dash0 as an independent platform to verify DS24 Gateway. It helps us confirm that the system is working correctly by letting us view metrics, traces, and overall system state in real time. With Dash0, we can validate our setup without having to build and maintain our own observability infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t have any major complaints, but one aspect that could use improvement is the internal documentation and the number of manual steps involved in workflows. If there were more structure and clearer guidance in these areas, I believe productivity could be enhanced even more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Last9 is solving the problem of unreliable, difficult-to-understand systems in modern distributed architectures. As applications grow more complex, it becomes harder to maintain uptime, identify the root cause of failures, and ensure that services meet reliability goals. Last9 addresses this by providing structured SLO (Service Level Objective) management, real-time observability, and automated insights into system performance.

For me, this has been extremely beneficial because it helps me:

Detect issues early before they become customer-impacting incidents.

Reduce time spent on debugging, since Last9 surfaces the exact services or dependencies causing reliability risks.

Track reliability in a measurable way through SLOs instead of relying on subjective judgments.

Focus my efforts on what truly matters, thanks to clear error budgets and actionable alerts.

Deliver more stable releases, ensuring better user experience and fewer production escalations.

Overall, Last9 helps turn reliability from a reactive activity into a proactive, data-driven process — which boosts my efficiency and confidence in managing high-scale systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
