Overall Satisfaction with IBM Instana

I enjoy using the automation tool in the IBM Instana app. No doubt, it has made my CI/CD process much more efficient and I can now infer better insights about any activity of the app and user experience. It is just an intuitive way of automating performance management, integration and observation of services. Also whenever you have a question or a concern, customer service is responsive and reliable. Owing to Jenkins and Git compatibility, it becomes straightforward to build continuous integration and delivery pipelines and monitor containers with IBM Instana, examining how our containers are fairing against our resource constraints. Also one only has to install a node agent to get the setup process rolling, which is pretty easy to do.

Pros

  • Fast customer service and they are available 24/7.
  • Simple setup process requiring node agent installation.
  • Basic yet functional user interface.

Cons

  • No customization option for the dashboard.
  • Would like to export data into other formats apart from excel.
  • Should decrease the price further and extend the trial period from 14 days to a month.
  • Simple real time monitoring feature saves time.
  • Provides useful app behavior and UX information.
  • Smart alerts are very much appreciated.
