It consolidates all logs into one place and provides required features and functionalities

Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to do RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue.

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

"We haven't had anything yet that we couldn't do through LogDNA."

"The solution aggregates all event streams, so that if there are any issues, it's all in the same interface."

"With LogDNA, which brings all the logs together in an interleaved stream, it allows us to take a transaction and relate it to other contextual events making the gathering of evidence for auditors and our internal RCA much more productive."

"LogDNA consolidates all logs into one place, which is super valuable."

"New Relic is great for DevOps and for a company that expects developers to do their own operations."

"New Relic is a great SaaS which I will definitely continue using and will use in future products."

"I can have my developers find bugs and fix them in one-tenth of time they used to take."

"With the help of New Relic tools, our organization was able to detect, track, and fix errors in our website, so we focused our efforts in these areas."

"The most valuable feature is application monitoring."

"Monitoring is a crucial thing for every work, and New Relic is doing a very good job in this part."

"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."

"From the perspective of effort and time taken while identifying issues and resolution, we have gained a lot."

Cons

"Scalability could be improved; we are using it through the IBM cloud deployment and on some of the data centers that are very heavily used, there is a significant lag in the event stream, sometimes 10, 15 minutes behind, which makes the RCA impossible."

"No ability to encapsulate a query or a filter, and communicate or share that among the team."

"Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue."

"Sometimes we've noticed agents fail to report/respond."

"Probably make the query language a little bit easier."

"There are times when you restart the engines and the servers have a unique ID for the host and you need to remove the server. It is difficult because some are on-premise and others are production hosts. Having downtime is not very good when updating. However, it is not a constant issue."

"Error handling and reporting is a little lackluster, but they're announcing a whole new analytics approach."

"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."

"At times some of the data can be opaque."

"New Relic can be improved by incorporating an automated incident analysis solution."

"I prefer AppDynamics and Dynatrace. These two tools over New Relic."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"I think the pricing is reasonable."

"The price depends on how many agents you want."

"The pricing could be better. We did not purchase the full version. Maybe if we applied all the other features of the full version of New Relic, we could get all the features that we feel are missing."

"We feel it's a little bit pricey."

"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 new licensing model is great, as we pay for what we use (in computational units). However, the pricing is expensive compared to other tools."

"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."

"This solution required a license and it is better than some other competitors."
