WINNER: OVERALL 

Cisco Systems’ application performance monitoring software, AppDynamics, offers real-time monitoring, performance and analytics tools via its cloud-based observability platform. The software gives solution providers the resources they need to address application issues and scalability and help their customers make more informed operational decisions as IT environments become more complex. AppDynamics is part of Cisco’s full-stack observability offering, which the company has called a big opportunity for solution providers, and it is pushing to have 100 percent of AppDynamics sales go through the channel. In the solution provider survey, AppDynamics outscored the competition across the technology, revenue and profit, and customer need subcategories.
