Dynatrace Reviews – there are no alternatives

When evaluating enterprise software buyers will typically take two paths:

  • A free trial or demo: We’ve always encouraged our buyers to Start your free trial, and not just on a basic app but something that will truly test our unique features.
  • Reviews: We might not be silicon valley’s poster child, but we lead the pack on every major review site by a long way.

Dynatrace Reviews: Highly rated on all major review sites

It’s a lot to read through every single review so for convenience I have summarised:

  • Dynatrace is the leader on most major review sites
  • Most of the reviews focus on ‘easy‘, ‘data quality‘, ‘AI‘.
  • Dynatrace is recognised for rapid release cycles – 26 per year, where as our competition is lucky to have 4 major releases.
  • Dynatrace Services and Support teams are top notch.

Customer quotes that define the value of Dynatrace

As I read through all the quotes I hear a common thread:

  • It’s easy to install and fully automatic
  • The dashboarding is out of the box
  • The data is powerful and yet easy to understand
  • The software is simply invaluable
  • Our services and support team have a fantastic reputation

Negatives:

  • The negatives are pricing and the learning curve.
  • Our new platform was designed to make it easy for you to adopt, SAP had over 1400 users adopt our software in 3 months. Not bad at all.
  • On pricing I will take the feedback on board in order to help new prospects understand our pricing model. But of course you get what you pay for. We are #1 for a reason, and we try and be fair in our pricing model to ensure it’s economical for you and for us to continue to make it!
