Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"ITSM is a valuable feature, it complies with the requirements in Pakistan.""The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes.""ManageEngine Applications Manager's installation is pretty easy.""The feature that I have found most valuable in ManageEngine Applications Manager is its dashboard.""Its price and the flexibility to deploy are the most valuable. Flexibility is very important, and you can scale from very basic to more complex. This solution is a part of a complete suite of management tools. So, it can be integrated with other solutions for monitoring networks, which is very important. You can expand it or interconnect it with many other tools, which is a powerful feature. We have a very good and long relationship with ManageEngine support guys. They provide very good support for us.""What I like most about ManageEngine Applications Manager is its price point, apart from its technicalities. The solution is cheaper than its competitors. ManageEngine Applications Manager has helpful documentation that makes setting it up straightforward.""The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use.""I am impressed with the tool's reporting feature which is simple."

"Every time there is a crisis, high traffic, or if we see a problem with a server, we go to New Relic and monitor it to determine the cause.""The feature I found most valuable is being able to design my queries. It's easy to design a query.""We have done the New Relic integration with Serverless AWS, which has helped us with monitoring, and keeping our monitoring from our on-premise part with the cloud part.""There are many valuable features in New Relic APM. We developed some software applications and we are able to monitor the errors very easily. Their log security retention is very good.""The monitoring so far has been good and we are happy with it.""The most valuable feature is the ability to receive in-depth information about applications. It can detect a lot of important information.""You don't have to go through a list of 500 servers.""The most important thing is that it tells us where the latency in throughput and response time are."

Cons
"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things.""One area of improvement is the dashboard should be more readable and available.""Even with the top-notch dashboard, it could be made stronger in order to have an additional plug-in for analytics.""The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work.""I would like the solution to improve the ability to track services.""The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide.""They can improve the post-processing of the data. AppDynamics has more powerful tools for post-processing or analytics. It has some limitations in more complex environments, but because we are free to use different solutions, we try to find what is best for the customers or the problem we are trying to solve.""The agent often crashes when there is too much load on the application side. If a sudden storm of data comes in, the agent crashes down most of the time."

More ManageEngine Applications Manager Cons →

"New Relic APM could improve error debugging and the correlation with the logs. We are receiving some alerts or alarms but we need to correlate with the error log, but it is difficult if it is more than seven months retention period, it is hard to trace. We need this especially for getting historical information.""I would like the ability to set up certain dummy accounts and do the actual things that the customer is doing, without impacting the production environment.""It is complicated, especially in how you interpret the data that it provides. If it had a bit more canned, out-of-the-box features, especially some of the reporting features, that would be more useful.""There has been some problem with the agent, and it is just not working well. It is not able to record information with the application server. They have been able to fix the issue, but it took quite a long time. This is the main issue in the APM products and also in New Relic. The mobile application monitoring has been pretty difficult to set up and also quite expensive. It should be a little bit easier and cheaper. Because it is pretty difficult and expensive, many customers don't take it.""The solution needs to have staging.""The customization of the start and end time is kind of cool.""It would be nice if there were pre-made dashboards.""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."

  • "The cost of this solution is not too bad, although it could be cheaper considering what you're getting for the price."
  • "The licensing costs for ManageEngine Applications Manager are around $1,200 per year. For additional monitors, you have to pay extra."
  • "Its price is good."
  • "The annual licensing depends on the number of monitors you have connected. Once you get to two hundred monitors you can see the price reflect."
  • "ManageEngine Applications Manager has reasonable pricing. It's more affordable than other solutions in the market. My company has an instance-based license for ManageEngine Applications Manager. You can purchase a yearly subscription or a perpetual license. The standard license covers most features, but you can still have some paid add-ons."
  • "The solution's licensing costs are yearly."
  • "Price-wise, it is a cheap tool...The solution's licensing model is subscription-based, in which yearly payments are to be made."
  • More ManageEngine Applications Manager Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "New Relic is either free with low retention and minimal functionalities, or expensive with full options and retention."
  • "The monthly cost os $1000 per server per month, but it could be even more. We pay about $250 for the server, and then New Relic wants over $1000 to give us statistics on those servers."
  • "Cost is significant with a lot of extras."
  • "It would be nice if we could buy it annually instead of monthly."
  • "If it’s the right tool, it doesn’t matter what it costs because you’re going to get it back many-fold from your productivity."
  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "They gave us aggressive discounts when they were brought in for the first time, but they have also kept them for the year-on-year renewals, which has been absolutely fine."
