Application Performance Monitoring (APM) refers to the monitoring and management of the performance of software applications. It provides the defined services to the customer and identifies the problems related to the application performance. With APM solutions, businesses can monitor whether the IT industry meets the performance standards, identify bugs and other issues, and provide flawless user experiences. In this evolving technology, the applications are getting more complex and distributed. If an application fails, it ruins the business. Hence, it is crucial to monitor application performance to provide user satisfaction. We need the right APM tools to keep the service running smoothly and enhance the user experience. Here, we will provide the ten best Application Monitoring Tools for users.
