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

"The feature that I like the most and the best part is the customization."
"Once we installed this central system, our site engineers who provide the data started believing in the data's accuracy."
"It is a stable product. After the initial configuration, you don't have to tweak it much. All systems of Everest IMS work perfectly."
"Overall, it's a wonderful one-stop ITSM solution for infrastructure."
"Being an engineering product, the customization is easy for us compared to SolarWinds and ManageEngine."
"With Infraon, everything is already built-in so you are able to plug-and-play with the system."
"Their discovery is very quick and they have a CSV file upload mechanism that allows you to onboard five thousand devices a day."
"The most valuable feature is alerting. We get email alerts when a link is down that tell us which device is having a problem."
"In several days, we got a great ROI due to an issue in a customer application."
"The solution is quite stable."
"It has given us better insight into the performance of the system."
"They instrument up from the bottom to the top – every piece of code - they have a very perfect read of what’s being done, and how long it’s taking."
"With the help of New Relic APM, we managed to deliver an online B2B application with average response times below two seconds, where with v6, the average response times was about 30 seconds."
"It's given us the ability for anyone to know how our customers experience our application."
"The most valuable feature is the New Relic APM module to deep-dive into the application, to get bottlenecks to the surface, and to improve application performance. Also, the New Relic Insights module creates a real-time dashboard on application performance to create awareness for the DevOps team."
"It has helped us maintain a much higher uptime than we had previously."
 

Cons

"Email support is a bit slow. Once you drop an email, it takes time."
"Email support is a bit slow. Once you drop an email, it takes time."
"This solution is available in SaaS. The reason why we have not gone to SaaS is they do not have a country-specific separation of assets. There are GDPR and other requirements that might require country-specific sensitive information to be filtered as well as other things that need to be taken care of. Normally, if we need to do any compliance, like ISO27000 compliance, they don't have such a report within their system. This kind of report is missing from their SaaS. That is one of the reasons that we have gone to the on-prem version, where I am assured that my data is secure."
"The graphical view of the topology does not show us all of the connectivity in our network, which is something that could be improved."
"In terms of improvements, I would like to see an integrated view of Infraon IMS and Infraon Desk."
"There might be some features in other products that are currently not there in Everest IMS and can be included."
"The graphical view of the topology does not show us all of the connectivity in our network, which is something that could be improved."
"The GUI is in need of improvement. It is not drag-and-drop or easy to use."
"The logs in New Relic are not showing the full logs. When I go and check the logs, they are not complete."
"We have some performance issues with the servers. Sometimes the server is consuming a lot of CPU or memory, and New Relic Insights fails."
"The product's initial setup phase is not straightforward to manage if you have no experience with installations, making it an area that can be improved."
"One issue is cost."
"One major issue for me with New Relic is data privacy."
"Documentation could be improved in New Relic APM, so users would have more clarity on configuring the dashboard. If New Relic gave better guidelines, users would find it easier to understand the metrics and features of New Relic APM. Another area for improvement is integration with Kubernetes. Currently, the process isn't user-friendly. It's challenging and lacks documentation for users to understand how to integrate New Relic APM with Kubernetes quickly. With multiple levels of Kubernetes dockers and other DBs on different clouds, it's tricky to gather all into New Relic APM on a single dashboard. What I'd like to see in the next version of New Relic APM is a single dashboard where you can easily view which applications fall under specific APMs. If there's a search feature where you can type in a keyword to find out if an APM is related to a particular application, that would be great."
"I think the APM mode can be improved. In addition, its difficult to have a predictive tool to see how the application would behave in the future when it basically only shows the historical data."
"I would like to have storage monitoring. E.g., being able to monitor SANS, specifically protocols, like NFS and CIFS metrics."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is calculated on a per-user basis."
"The pricing is reasonable, given the features that they provide."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"The pricing is fine."
"I recommend using the free version of New Relic. If you like the free version and understand its importance for your company, you can move to the trial. Then, you can migrate to the paid version."
"The solution is cheap, but prices can go up when users grow."
"The pricing and licensing are good if you have an account manager and a partner manager who are looking to help out."
"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."
"The price of the solution could be less expensive. You have to pay a lot for each user. There is an additional cost for extra features."
"The price depends on how many agents you want."
