Cisco AppDynamics announced today it has been named a Leader in
2021 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Application Performance Monitoring
for the ninth time. Gartner evaluates vendors for their ability to
execute and completeness of vision. As per Gartner, “the continued
growth in mobile, cloud-native applications and workload migrations
from traditional data center to cloud architectures continues to
fuel the APM market. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic forced many
organizations to enable and monitor remote workers by adapting
their approach to supporting internal users and their experience
with corporate applications.”
In a year that brought unprecedented pressure and focus to the
role of the technologist, we believe our innovation in business
analytics, regional Software-as-a-Service expansion and strong
portfolio to drive full-stack innovation contributed to our
position as a Leader in the report.
AppDynamics believes this recognition further reinforces the
company’s position as a leading Application Performance Monitoring
(APM) vendor trusted by the world’s largest and most-recognized
enterprise brands for their mission-critical applications.
“The complexities of the last year have required enterprises to
digitally transform their business strategies overnight in order to
remain relevant and competitive,” said Linda Tong, Vice President
and General Manager, Cisco AppDynamics. “To do this effectively,
companies need full-stack observability with deep insights across
the technology stack and business context in order to scale and
prioritize what matters most to their business. The world’s most
innovative enterprises trust that the Cisco AppDynamics Business
Observability platform will enable them to better prioritize and
deliver the biggest impact for their business, no matter what
levels of demand and complexity may arise.”
AppDynamics is helping align teams across organizations on
shared priorities so they can act with confidence on what matters
most to the business by aligning technology metrics to business
outcomes. With enhancements to Internet and SaaS monitoring,
applied machine learning algorithms to technology and business
metrics and expanded cloud coverage, AppDynamics continues to be
the proven vendor of choice for businesses who want to build
flawless digital experiences for users by prioritizing and
delivering the biggest impact for their business.
Significant enhancements include:
- Updates to Business iQ for business analysis and Experience
Journey Map for Digital Experience Monitoring.
- Internet and SaaS monitoring through ThousandEyes
integration.
- Updated workload analysis and optimization through updated
integration with Cisco Intersight Workload Optimizer (IWO).
- Correlated business metrics with
mission critical SAP business scenarios through SAP Peak
offering.
- Continued agent modernization through consolidation and
automated lifecycle management.
- Added value for governments and other regulated entities
through FedRAMP certification.
- Continued global SaaS location expansion across Europe, South
America, Africa and Asia Pacific.
“With AppDynamics, the big win for us is observability,” said
Tomas Huszagh, Software Engineering Manager and DevOps and
Operations Lead at Solar Turbines, a Caterpillar company. “We see
the entire flow and know about application or infrastructure issues
within minutes. Now, we have everything under one umbrella and the
efficiency is insane.”
“AppDynamics is vital for helping us make the connection between
backend services and the front end experience that isn’t always
intuitive or obvious,” said Jimmy van den Bergh, Software Engineer,
Cyclomedia. “We can find caches that create hard-to-see errors
directly and instantly reboot it on the backend service to get
everything back up and running in a matter of minutes.”
