The new Magic Quadrant from Gartner is out, and no surprise, it’s the 13th consecutive year Dynatrace is named a Leader and Positioned Furthest for Vision and Highest in Execution :dynaspin: I took some minutes to read the report, and it is spot on! We can also learn some quick facts from others, so I would highly recommend downloading your complimentary report at [2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Observability Platforms](https://www.dynatrace.com/gartner-magic-quadrant-for-application-performance-monitoring-observability/) ---

Funny to see the “Caution”: Hey, they have added a lots of new and cool features to their product, enhancing even more the Observability capabilities to your needs… but you will need to learn a bit more. 🤣 ---

It was worse in the AppMon → Dynatrace transition 🤣 But the details they give are really spot on, and when we see that what they say about us is pretty correct, just read some of the others… ---

I don’t know why people see a problem in learning new things. For me it’s a big plus if something changes and you can do something in a completely different, more efficient way 🙂 I always wait for an update on my iPhone and check what has changed etc. xD 🤣 ---

From the analysis I have read I can confirm the points they are making about Cisco-AppDynamics. As a bonus the fact that they are mentioning SAP and as a malus the very old way of managing the agent lifecycle (very painful ad limiting if you are coming from a Dynatrace experience) I didn’t quite get if Gartner is also considering the availability of real information useful for implementation (official documentation, help center, community Q&A) but I have to say that in my experience this is also an important factor to consider when you adopt a platform in an enterprise ecosystem: Dynatrace excels also in this, while I have seen other vendors with scarce to no documentation at all. (Example: important fact about SAP monitoring with AppDynamics are distributed between a couple of community threads and official doc, a real nightmare when you need to investigate and understands the how to)
