See all performance metrics in real-time

Application performance management (APM) is critical to business success today. Dynatrace automatically sees and analyzes every single user transaction, all the time. All relevant metrics, environment changes, and application deployments are shown in real-time.

Dynatrace captures every transaction, across every tier, without gaps or blind spots.
Pre-configured dashboards provide all relevant metrics down to the SQL statement and code level.
In under five minutes OneAgent automatically discovers your entire application stack.

Customizable dashboards shows all important facts related to your web application in a single location.

Dynatrace shows you .NET system performance metrics like CPU, responsiveness, memory, and worker processes.

Dynatrace provides you with all relevant metrics.

See the top contributors to response time, failure rate, and CPU consumption.

Dynatrace shows you the root causes of problems!

Dynatrace detects and diagnoses problems in real time—pinpointing root causes all the way down to the offending lines of code—before your customers are affected by them.

Proactively detect availability and performance problems across your stack.
By applying big data analytics to billions of dependencies within your application stack, Dynatrace directly pinpoints the components that are causing problems.
Visual replay of problem evolution helps you understand how problems evolved over time.

Dynatrace pinpoints the root causes of performance issues automatically. Leverage instant replay to understand how problems evolve over time.

Dynatrace smart baselining learns the normal performance of your application. Eliminate false positives and noisy alerts related to response times, failure rates and throughput.

Dynatrace diagnoses problems that are often difficult to pinpoint, including database, memory, threading, and CPU issues.

“With Dynatrace, finding a problem only takes us minutes to identify, saving us precious time and resources.”
