AppDynamics announced the availability of AppDynamics Mobile Application Monitoring now with support for native iOS and Android mobile apps.

With this expansion, AppDynamics is the first complete application performance management solution for optimizing the end-to-end performance of mobile apps and websites across devices, mobile operating systems, application versions, carrier networks, databases and servers.

The new AppDynamics Mobile Application Monitoring solution enables organizations to deliver a reliable, consistent mobile experience and protect increasingly important mobile device revenue streams and customer interactions, even under the most demanding situations.

Jonah Kowall, Research VP at Gartner, in a recent report states, “IT leaders must prepare for the challenges created by mobile adoption in application performance measurement, as well as user experience and behavior.” The report goes on to state, “the importance of integrating database performance monitoring with other aspects of APM will be universally recognized.”

Mobile applications now account for 15 percent of all Internet traffic, with 1.5 billion users worldwide. Done right, a simple iPhone application can reach 50 million users in days. While good performance gets a high rating and strong sales in the app store, poor performance will impact the application’s rating—and can cost a business tens of thousands of dollars for every second of delayed response or app failure. Most APM products look only at application code, leaving businesses in the dark about device, network, database or server issues.

The release of AppDynamics Mobile Application Monitoring fills this urgent need for end-to-end visibility into production mobile apps. It delivers device analytics, crash reporting and network request instrumentation, helping businesses pinpoint and trace problems to their source — whether it’s the application code, device, network or server.

Jyoti Bansal, founder and CEO, AppDynamics said: “At AppDynamics, our primary goal is to empower today’s software-defined businesses with smart, adaptive tools to analyze and optimize digital business performance—in real time, and in production. We see that everything from customer experience to revenue depends on business-critical applications performing at their highest level. With AppDynamics Mobile Application Monitoring, our Application Intelligence Platform more completely provides the ability to proactively manage the most complex software environments through real-time monitoring and insights, and the ability to automate the resolution of problems.”

Mobile applications will overtake web browsing in 2014, but APM tools haven’t kept up with the importance of mobile performance to businesses. AppDynamics Mobile Application Monitoring closes that gap and helps companies succeed with the following features:

- Real-time monitoring of application performance and end-user experience

- Complete visibility into the customer experience across mobile and web

- Mobile analytics that show what apps are active within your customer base

- Audience insights, with analytics on device, carriers, OS and application versions

- World-class business metrics that provide a level of application intelligence never before available for mobile apps
