Arunpandiyan M - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly, simple to set up and easy to configure
The dashboard needs to improve. It's not so clear right now. We need it to be more usable. We want all of our reports in one easy-to-access place. Sometimes we get stuck and have to rest the gateway. After we do that, it'll start working again. We're still new to the product and we're not using every aspect of it.
Rahul -Jain - PeerSpot reviewer
Good for application Performance Monitoring but not stable
There are two types of teams we have in every organization. One is for DevOps, and the second one is for performance testing. Those who are using these tools, like AppDynamics, Dynatrace, or whatever tool we have on the APM side. These tools are used by two teams: one is the performance team, and another one is the DevOps team. So, the setup and the alert system belong to the DevOps team, not for performance. So, I don't use any alerts in AppDynamics, Dynatrace, or any of the tools.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Avantra is automation. The reduction of manual work and having them automated is one of the top reasons why I would use it."
"You can customize alerts based on need."
"It's very easy to manage and use."
"The integration and configuration of New Relic is straightforward and easy."
"New features are added often."
"The solution is good for sending alerts, drawing graphs about system usage, and creating plug-ins."
"New Relic is suitable for banking domains, investment brokerage products, or anything related to high-security data, and it works as a whole monitoring solution, including logging, monitoring, and application profiling tools."
"The alert mechanism is quite accurate when something goes wrong in your system. For example, if you have hundreds of APIs on your server, and any of the APIs is not performing well, you get an alert. When there is a drop or change in the threshold value, the beauty of New Relic is that within a fraction of seconds, all the stakeholders who are configured in the New Relic system will get an alert. That's one good thing."
"It is easier to create new dashboards in the New Relic interface, and it is also easier to query if when I want to monitor a different parameter or time duration on my dashboard."
"Server uptime is its most valuable feature."
"As New Relic is already integrated with Drupal, we can get our projects done with best practice and with the best value that we believe in."
 

Cons

"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."
"I would like to see the company implement the AI auto-baseline feature which Dynatrace has."
"New Relic APM is a good tool, and it has a database of failures, but it could use a list of customer-specific failures. New Relic APM should be able to give my company advanced analytics through AI."
"New Relic can be improved by incorporating an automated incident analysis solution."
"The solution does not provide input on how the page performs in a big group. It just says that the page performance is bad, but it does not say what can be done to improve it. If they could provide some insight or guidance on how to make improvements, that would be a big help."
"Documentation is one of the biggest things that I have a problem with since its documentation is not clear sometimes."
"One thing that we noticed was that historical information was only for a limited period, which was not helpful in certain scenarios. For example, if I want to size my system for an event for New Year or Christmas season based on the historical data, I won't be able to find the historical data. Currently, the data is limited to three months. It would be helpful if they can provide historical data for a longer duration so that we can plan our system accordingly."
"The browser isn't exactly reliable."
"The initial setup can be made easier. Like Mixpanel, New Relic can also have a step-by-step guide for the setup process."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Because of budget, we are not using the mobile app part of this tool."
"Comparatively, the pricing is expensive."
"The solution is less expensive than AppNeta."
"The price depends on how many agents you want."
"I think the pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing model is a little confusing for beginners. They find it a little expensive, and if you are using it already, then that is not good."
"The solution is cheap, but prices can go up when users grow."
"The price was one of the reasons we chose this solution."
