Amazing tool for infrastructure monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
The easy with which alerts can be configured is outstanding. The fact that the alerts can be channelized to multiple delivery channels is very useful . It is a innovative way to easily monitor the infrastructure at reasonable cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
the limits to the number of configurable points should be increased.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Trying to monitor our production systems and preemptively manage reduce down time. By creating appropriate alerts (CPU, disk etc) we are to predict and prevent outrage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Product releases should be pre-announced and should be restricted to 2-3 per year

It's a perfect Tool. One should go for it, in case there's a need for such tools in the project! Also, this can add up to the productivity of the team.
One can have multiple graphs and reports built on different objects to see the real-time stats of any entity.
For example:-
If one has to check how many orders are getting placed daily!
Those can be tracked easily, and it gives a clear perspective on the actual status.
So it's a life savior in many terms !!

Instana review from UI Developer
What do you like best about the product?
It is able to automate the discovery of infrastructure – servers (added or removed), containers, microservices, etc. UI logs are useful and helps to improve the performance. Instana has solved size of environment, rate of change, rate of deployment,etc.. This was no easy task and it required the creation of brand new technologies that are the intellectual property of Instana. Nobody will solve all of these challenges just by cobbling together a bunch of open source big data tools. This gives Instana a major architectural competitive advantage.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think instana provides the required features for my project. So far nothing which I disliked about it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Network logs helps us to analyze back end issues. Performance improvement and it's easier to fix errors.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would like to recommend to my friends and colleagues as instana is really useful.
Good
What do you like best about the product?
I like the visual view of the entire system
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to drill down into errors. Not always clear where to find a specific error and information on it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Overall health of system
revolutionary tool for developers
What do you like best about the product?
I'm a developer working in microservices architecture .Instana has been handy in analyzing traces and finding root cause in less than 60 seconds in production environment,looking forward to use all features of instana.
Overall it is innovative in microserivices era.

What do you dislike about the product?
nothing to dislike so far in instana tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Highlevel view of instana with infrastructure

An Outstandingly Efficient tool to monitor your infrastructure !!
What do you like best about the product?
The GUI mode is highly user friendly with emphasis on various sectors, servers, services, endpoints, process etc almost everything & anything you can think of. You can hover over things or you can manually search & query things you need & the server pulls you out the data at a snap of your fingers. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
What do you dislike about the product?
The API server gave us some tough time to configure few of our alerts forwarding to slack but thanks to the awesome support from the Instana support guys..they fixed it in their immediate next release. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We almost monitor all of our prod & dev servers, jvm services running inside it and anything we want to configure. The alert & SNS service is just simply awesome while it comes to work with almost negligent latency. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

If you want you infrastructure to run without worrying to look back, this is it... Instana !!
not yet enterprise ready
What do you like best about the product?
Integrations (opsgenie, aws, grafana)
The dashboard has a very fresh look
SDK for most programming language to implement instrumentation.
out-of-the-box instrumentation for popular frameworks.

What do you dislike about the product?
filtering by kubernetes resources is not fully implemented.
filtering by most used aws resources, not yet available.
filtering in the infrastructure view is somewhat annoying and inconsistent between resources
aggregating (any) resources in the infra view is not straight forward.
the infrastructure view seems to play second base in the new release against the application view.
alerting stops working sometimes (dashboard and hooks).
alerting didn't respect the hooks we've set up and were showing false alarms. or alarms from other applications that had nothing to do with our alerting rules.
i've completely gave up on alerting at some point and turned it off, since all it was doing was sending false slack messages.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
monitoring of core infrastructure on prem, cloud and applications deployed in kubernetes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
it looks and feels like a work in progress.
I think that the product would be better in about a year or two, a lot more maturity is needed for the enterprise.
at first it looks amazing, but in practice it lacks. mostly it's not features that it lacks, but actual stability of the platform. updates usually break the product. worst off they break alarm rules, so if you count on that to ensure operation stability and have a fast response to issues you'll have surprises.

Instana is instant
What do you like best about the product?
The User interface and the easiness to quickly use the tool make this tool a great product. The view of the dashboard gives an overall state of the servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Will be much better if detailed logs are captured within the tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick resolutions of the infrastructure related issues
Overall amazing experience, very powerful UI with almost all details captured and displayed properly
What do you like best about the product?
As UI developer, knowing console error for various client browser is the most helpful feature. Also it shows requests from various geographical location which is very helpful during analysis and sometimes serves as a pointer to a bug you are looking into.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's been just couple of months since I started using, so for me getting request parameters for each client request is something also very useful, which I found missing (or may be I did not dig in that much)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The need to ask client for console error are completely eliminated with instana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very easy to use and offers very powerful and useful features. Integration with various modules are also very easy and documentation is also very helpful and up to point.
Best APM tool for developers
What do you like best about the product?
- Ease of installation, you just have to spin up the daemon set, no code changes needed
- User interface is modern and intuitive
- No call sampling is done. So all calls (REST, gRPC etc,) can be viewed
- Distributed call tracing is awesome.
- Alerting and error reporting

What do you dislike about the product?
None, I don't see any obvious shortcomings with Instana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Developers use Instana to detect and fix issues with complex application call graphs. if there are any performance issues, they are very easy to detect. Unlike other APM;s that show only overall latency, memory and CPU utilization, this goes into great detail into every layer of application, starting from host, to container, to application.
