Scout APM is application performance monitoring that streamlines troubleshooting by helping developers find and fix performance issues before customers ever see them. With real-time alerting, a developer-centric UI, and tracing logic that ties bottlenecks directly to source code, Scout APM helps you spend less time debugging and more time building a great product.
Quickly identify, prioritize, and resolve performance problems – memory bloat, N+1 queries, slow database queries, and more – with an agent that instruments the dependencies you need at a fraction of the overhead.
Scout APM is built for developers, by developers, and monitors Ruby, PHP, Python, Node.js, and Elixir applications.

How I benefit from ScoutAPM on legacy code
What do you like best?
Break down on tracing and resource usage. Especially when working on legacy architecture. Fixing and pointing to leakage is a different beast on itself. Implementing scout APM help me with that. Ease of implementing and wide support mean it is easy to setup and modify.
What do you dislike?
No clear legend on graph color when comparing improvement. Once I spent quite a time figure out if the fix improve things or make things worse. Separate graph for different concern will also help a lot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need quick to setup monitoring system on old architecture. scout APM provide it quickly to try and custom as you want. It help give quick view if the service is the correct one for your need.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
n+1 query problem on old stacks that it is hard to determine the query builder. Slow API detection and checking if the fix made any progress. Detecting at which endpoint wasting the most resource, and if it really need that much resources
