By defaul AppDynamics will come with all the counters you need for SQL Server so nothing required to add to it.
I use both AppD and SQL Monitor and I have to say that using Red Gate SQL Monitor is a lot easier to analize and compare loads from different points in time as well as comparing different counters for the same time perio so if you are still evaluating you should consider both.
AppD is used for a lot more than databases and the application monitoring is really great.
Need your help to configure custom sql alerts and threshold values for appd monitoring tool.
Can you please help me on this.
I look forward to your positive response
Thanks in advance!!

DBA
