Pros
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"The ability to troubleshoot customers' connectivity has been very beneficial.""It has cut our troubleshooting down by days. Once we have a product in place, we show people examples of how it can streamline their troubleshooting process.""It allows us to get quicker resolutions. We can see exactly what is using up the bandwidth, so we can assist end users.""We use it for monitoring whenever we update a new circuit or site.""The real-time troubleshooting and application segregation that you can do within it.""It helps us to assist our customers to isolate problems. If it is us who is having the problem, then we can use it to streamline the process.""When we have mobile operators who are signal partners, where one is the roaming host and another is the roamer, we are able to see their traffic. Their packets are able to detect if any faults to develop, and at what point they fail.""The tool has the ability to look back within a month's data. It is very easy to navigate within the tool and troubleshoot the problem, compared to other solutions that we've used in the past."

More NETSCOUT InfiniStreamNG Pros →

"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.""It is stable and scalable.""It has helped my organization to dive deeper into the application using the APM module is very helpful.""The service maps that it creates, the health maps that it creates, the insights that it provides, etc., are all quite useful.""The pricing is pretty good.""The feature I found most valuable is being able to design my queries. It's easy to design a query.""The stability of New Relic APM is very good.""End-user Synthetics and monitoring are very good."

More New Relic Pros →

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"We don't use the single pane of glass view, even though we own it.""I would like to see an improved level of stitching between IPs.""The stability depends on who is using the tool, because you only can get as much out of the tool as you put into it. There are a lot of patches for this particular environment, so you have to keep on them. If you lose track of them, then the product is not useful anymore.""I'd like them to make the product more user-friendly.""The single pane of glass feed still needs work.""The monitoring and reporting tool needs improvement. Users want more information, such as the level of detail when doing a packet analysis. They want more detail to be able to isolate down to a specific point.""Being able to manage the packet flow switches in nGeniusONE would be great.""Only problems that we have had are fiber issues going into the TAPs or vSTREAMs, which are usually local site issues."

More NETSCOUT InfiniStreamNG Cons →

"New Relic APM can improve the information when we dig deeper to check a problem. There should be more detailed information provided.""We would like to receive more AWS-specific details from the New Relic Dashboard, like EC2 health.""The deployment process could be improved.""The initial setup can be made easier. Like Mixpanel, New Relic can also have a step-by-step guide for the setup process.""I haven't come across any features that are lacking.""Data Dog captures the entire session and then provides it as a video player path, which gives more insight into what the user was doing. It's pretty impressive. New Relic does that, yet it only captures using a couple of screenshots, which is not very detailed since you are unable to see the entire user flow.""New Relic does enable frontend performance monitoring by default. However, when we are troubleshooting the issue, New Relic is not able to trace back to the service where the issue is. Other solutions, such as Dynatrace are better.""The price needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "To capture more with the solution that we bought, you have to buy another InfiniStreamNG, and there are only four ports in the back."
  • "The scalability is good, but it comes at a cost. E.g., if you need 100 InfiniStream because you are sending gigs or terabytes of data to one InfiniStream, then you will have to purchase another InfiniStream, which are not cheap."
  • "It can be scalable. It just costs too much. With a company as big as ours, it gets too expensive to accommodate every single site."
  • "This product could be cheaper."
  • "The price is a little high."
  • "I would like it to be more scalable with less spend."
  • More NETSCOUT InfiniStreamNG 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."
