    Considered Both Products
    Amazon AWS
    Chose Amazon CloudWatch
    I think Amazon has put more efforts to develop AWS CloudWatch features to monitor each kind of AWS service you can use instead of Dynatrace One Agent that just can monitor some variables of Computing services and FaaS, unless Dynatrace One Agent integration with AWS CloudWatch …

    Chose Dynatrace

    Chose Dynatrace
    Dynatrace provides the deep dive analysis on our pure paths like none other. The AI capabilities are very promising and helpful in our drive toward self-healing systems. We also like the bot, Davis, that can help solve some of the ops issues.

    Chose Dynatrace
    For the non-Amazon products, Dynatrace blows them away. I personally find Dynatrace easier to use than the Amazon products, but do still use those services as they capture additional details that we currently don't have Dynatrace setup to handle.

    Chose Dynatrace
    The amount of information that Dynatrace provides is far away from app dynamics, that is why we choose Dynatrace. We are developers and we want to have all the information.
