We performed a comparison between New Relic and Oracle Enterprise Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."To me, the most valuable feature of New Relic APM is the traceability, mainly based on the time travel method, so you get the overall response time, which is pretty helpful for developers and ADR techs looking into issues on a deeper level. New Relic APM is a very good, tailor-made solution."
"The stability of New Relic APM is very good."
"We use it for monitoring, identifying when services go down, or when they are outside of what we would consider normal operations."
"New features are added often."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to manage the application flow."
"It is easier to create new dashboards in the New Relic interface, and it is also easier to query if when I want to monitor a different parameter or time duration on my dashboard."
"It is a software solution as a service, so I don't have to manage it on-premise."
"One valuable feature is that the synthetic alert stays open until the issue is resolved. You can actually monitor whether your system is back up."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring because it's very useful for checking and troubleshooting compared with other products, like Nagios for example, that have some interaction with Oracle."
"There are a number of different user interfaces you can choose from."
"The 13cR2 updates to the OEM family, strongly integrate Cloud (off-site, hybrid and on-premise) services providing a seamless way to see all of your resources regardless of where they are deployed."
"The dashboards are great for gathering analytic information and seeing where the problems are."
"I think the look and feel and the accessibility to the databases, the scale of environment support."
"We use it extensively for performance tuning testing, monitoring, and configuration."
"The job subsystem, monitoring subsystem, alerting, grouping of targets, and reporting features are valuable to us."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Oracle Enterprise Manager was straightforward."
"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 the ability to set up certain dummy accounts and do the actual things that the customer is doing, without impacting the production environment."
"It gives you amazing statistics, but doesn’t give you enough information about what to do with the statistics."
"There are certain features that are not supported in New Relic, such as CATSEARCH, which allows you to do a full-text search."
"It would help customers if there were an on-premises version available."
"One thing I'd like to see in any APM, especially New Relic, is the ability to use distributed transactions. When one microservice calls another, it calls another database and microservice. The entire data visualization layer will not be able to correlate from one microservice from end to end and return on that path. Distributed transactions would be a great addition that would make life simpler. Unfortunately, no APM has that end-to-end capability."
"I think that there have been some questionable product enhancements. Over a year ago, New Relic rolled out a new navigation that really disrupted our workflow."
"There were some settings we had issues with."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"In my opinion, rather than a younger DBA, think the user interface could be improved."
"In my experience, the monitoring could be improved."
"There's a lot of documentation to go through as a new user."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
"It needs to support the Database versions lower than 10.2."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager six out of 10 for affordability. It's expensive."
"My opinion is that this solution needs to improve consolidation. That is what our business needs the most right now."
