Jose Ramon Crespo - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Enterprise Director at Towers IT
Utilize artificial intelligence for faster issue response and seamless ITSM integration
The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features. These capabilities help us gather more information and analyze it faster, leading to better responses to issues. The tool is also excellent at integrating with ITSM services, providing a seamless alerting system for our customers.

Real-time alerts have reduced server outage impact and support fast incident response
In the dashboard, if they could show a little more metrics regarding the application and related things, that would be how New Relic could be improved. Currently, there are things showing from the server level and application level, but it can be improved. That is what I felt. Regarding user interface, I do not feel much concern, but for some kind of issues when we are trying to get support from the New Relic team, their SLA seems to be long. They are taking seven to ten working days for resolving some kind of scenario or issue. That is a bit difficult for us. If they could improve the customer support by reducing their SLA within three to five days, if they could remediate everything, that will be so much helpful. When it comes to the customer support part, I felt they need to be a little more improved on that part. The support overall is good, but they can improve. That is the reason I have given it eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"The support we get from eG Innovations is truly outstanding."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"It delivers a huge amount of value and most people don't understand that."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"New Relic shows how much time each SQL transaction (SQL query) is taking to execute, so the client can pinpoint the query and modify it so that it takes less time to execute."
"New Relic has positively impacted our organization by reducing errors, improving performance, and saving time."
"The most valuable features are the dashboards and tracing."
"With our micro-services, we have basic analytics, and it is super simple to set up."
"The technical support is quite good."
"It is one of the things that helps DevOps work in our organization and has helped stop finger pointing."
"New Relic is easy to use even for someone with no knowledge; by seeing the dashboard, they can easily find out the application's health and notice what is happening."
"One valuable feature is that the synthetic alert stays open until the issue is resolved."
 

Cons

"I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"One thing that I don't like about eG is like the interface. It's not really that user-friendly to make a change, or to navigate through."
"I'd like a way to pull charts and data into third-party services. If we can pull that data and recreate charts, that would be great."
"More instruments with .NET and asynchronous calls, and New Relic says it’s on the way."
"The connectivity between legacy and newer cloud applications is not great."
"Joining datasets. Currently, it’s only possible to pull data from a single event type."
"I haven't come across any features that are lacking."
"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."
"Overall, New Relic is not as good as Dynatrace."
"I wish it had more insight into what might be causing a particular slowness issue. It finds the function, but it would be great to have insight into what’s slow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"There are two licensing options: Perpetual and SaaS-based. The main offering, in terms of what eG prefers to offer, is the subscription-based rather than the Perpetual License. The price could be cheaper."
"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
"You may get some monitoring products with certain licensing you may own. Some of these can take ages to configure and setup, along with needing a license to drive the software."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"It is not expensive."
"The product is very cheap."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"Cost is significant with a lot of extras."
"This is an expensive tool."
"Pricing is better with New Relic APM than Dynatrace."
"The price of New Relic APM could be less expensive. We are using the New Relic APM pro account and it is more costly. When compared to competitors the solution's pricing should be much more realistic."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive, and I believe that it is a competitively-priced tool."
"There is a picture which goes to your browser and it monitors requests from other users. However, it's impossible to use now because the price is very high. The feature is very nice, but I tried it during the trial period, and the current price makes it impossible to use."
"The price depends on how many agents you want."
"I loved this product, but we can no longer afford it, so we dropped it."
