Our process efficiency has improved by having all the information in one place, which has reduced manpower
The product is great. We integrated the ticketing tool with the monitoring tool. The agent ID creation is very easy when using this tool. It is so user-friendly. The user interface is good and also the pricing is great. The user interface is good, even a business user or layman can raise a ticket. They provide an all-in-one monitoring tool. If an issue happens, it gets integrated with the email, then proactively that ticket is being raised, which is good. The reporting is good. It is very clear. It is a customized report; however you want it, you can customize it. We use the solution’s role-based dashboards. The head of IT wants to use it so he can see holistically what is happening, e.g., what are the tickets being raised, what is a major issue, and what escalations are happening. There are different dashboards that are customized. For our head of IT, we made a separate dashboard. Then, for the executives, we made a separate dashboard based on time, like hourly or daily. All these reports were customized. While they didn't provide a BI dashboard, they provide a kind of graphical dashboard for whatever the issue is. Once you click on a particular ticket, it drills down to the issue, what it is and when the issue was raised. The drill down is good. It is more like a business intelligence (BI) tool. You can just scroll and zoom in. It goes deep into the issue. Once you click a particular dashboard, it will take you to the next page, then it takes you to the issue. Infraon IMS provides workflow automation for real-world use cases. This makes our work easier. It is just drag and drop (no coding) to build the workflows. For example, a particular ticket is being raised. It gets routed to three important IT executives within our team. From our team, it gets routed to the next level. The learning curve is good. Initially, there were no issues. As soon as the users saw the product, they understood what the product was. There wasn't any kind of training required for this product because it is very straightforward.

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

"It is a stable product; after the initial configuration, you don't have to tweak it much, and all systems of Everest IMS work perfectly."
"With Infraon, everything is already built-in so you are able to plug-and-play with the system."
"The feature that I like the most and the best part is the customization."
"Our response time is within 30 minutes for any support. This solution provides alerts immediately, so we are within our SLA, giving efficiency to our support."
"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product."
"The role-based dashboards provide data points and charts and topology diagrams in a single window. It's like a spider web, where the application, connectivity, and everything is defined for each user of those applications."
"The most valuable feature is alerting. We get email alerts when a link is down that tell us which device is having a problem."
"We have definitely seen ROI since we first implemented Infraon, three years ago, as it has given us clarity and helped us with compliance during audits."
"The best features New Relic offers are end-to-end tracing of any calls and custom dashboards."
"It has prevented failures from occurring in our production environment."
"It is a software solution as a service, so I don't have to manage it on-premise."
"It supports our Black Friday week, when our requests increase about 500 percent."
"The most valuable feature is New Relic Insights, and our customers are happy with the dashboard and the data that it displays and the correlation between the components."
"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."
"There are many things, but in particular I like the real-time monitoring; we get to know when a specific service or specific URL is failing and not performing, and we can set certain delivery thresholds which, if broken, we hear about immediately."
"It was able to really effectively find the problem and solve it – it sped up the pages considerably."
 

Cons

"Technical support could use some improvement in terms of their response times and diagnostic accuracy."
"The GUI is in need of improvement. It is not drag-and-drop or easy to use."
"Email support is a bit slow. Once you drop an email, it takes time."
"I would like to have the option to add a new device or meet with the next release. Right now, it needs to be done from the backend which results in a heavy reliance on R&D."
"The graphical view of the topology does not show us all of the connectivity in our network, which is something that could be improved."
"Email support is a bit slow. Once you drop an email, it takes time."
"We have enquired if there are any possibilities of monitoring non-IPBS devices."
"The graphical view of the topology does not show us all of the connectivity in our network, which is something that could be improved."
"Email alert customization is limited."
"I chose a rating of 8 out of 10 because the UI requires me to dig in and find the needed traces, and it can be more user-friendly."
"The scalability can be improved."
"The thing missing from these platforms is connectivity."
"The pricing could be improved as it is quite high relative to what is offered."
"I would like to be able to invest less time in IT and ad hocs. We should be concentrating on other issues."
"They need to improve the alerting and dashboarding as these are the key features in DevOps."
"New Relic can be improved by incorporating an automated incident analysis solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable, given the features that they provide."
"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product. We evaluated five to six products and finally felt Infraon was better because of the pricing model, especially because it was more flexible."
"The cost model is within our budget. I have less than 180 critical assets, but the moment that I have 1,000 assets, then the license model is totally different. I don't know whether they are capable of handling that kind of a load. They could revisit the licensing model."
"We pay for a number of devices on the accounts and since it is on-premises, we pay the maintenance charges for the year."
"I think that the pricing for this solution is reasonable and varies by number of devices."
"Licensing is calculated on a per-user basis."
"Because of budget, we are not using the mobile app part of this tool."
"New Relic is either free with low retention and minimal functionalities, or expensive with full options and retention."
"We deploy everything on AWS. Purchasing the product on AWS Marketplace made it easier for us."
"The new licensing model is great, as we pay for what we use (in computational units). However, the pricing is expensive compared to other tools."
"This solution required a license and it is better than some other competitors."
"This is an expensive product."
"We spend somewhere around $5,000 to $6,000 per month with an annual recommitment of maybe $60,000. These are just ballpark figures."
"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."
