Application monitoring made easy
What do you like best about the product?
Something that attracted me was application monitoring that is so simple and easy to configure. You get to download thread/heap dumps with a simple button click.
Then there is this Analyze call feature, that takes you deep inside what is happening with the particular API, in fact, to be more informative, it tells us about the sub calls, that API is making within the application. Everything about Instana is so easy and simple to follow and understand.
