"It is a software solution as a service, so I don't have to manage it on-premise."
"The VPN is one of the solution's most valuable features for us."
"New Relic has helped us in terms of the optimizing our print and loading times."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The versatility of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The tool's most valuable features were APM and core reliability. We get alerts whenever an anomaly is detected. The solution is very friendly."
"It does everything we wanted it to do."
"Splunk's strongest suit is its user interface. We can integrate multiple solutions and adjust settings in the Splunk interface."
"Three features stand out for me: the SDK for writing Python, the customizable and adaptable diagnostic dashboard, and the optimizer for collecting data."
"The UI of Splunk makes it easier for our analysts to move around and see what they need to see."
"It is very stable. We have not had any problems."
"Splunk has a wide range of features that customers use to find and analyze all kinds of logs."
"The ability to quickly search logs, performance data, and other inputs has helped tremendously with troubleshooting."
"Speeds up root cause analysis and can help identify issues that your organization never realized were occurring."
"What is nice about the solution is that it makes it easy to build the queries, search for the events and then do analysis."
"The solution must provide better support for Azure Web Apps service."
"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."
"Some AIOps are missing in New Relic APS, and I would like to see more features in this area."
"The solution does not provide input on how the page performs in a big group. It just says that the page performance is bad, but it does not say what can be done to improve it. If they could provide some insight or guidance on how to make improvements, that would be a big help."
"The price needs improvement."
"New Relic APM is a good tool, and it has a database of failures, but it could use a list of customer-specific failures. New Relic APM should be able to give my company advanced analytics through AI."
"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."
"It would be nice if there were pre-made dashboards."
"It currently has limited default rules and customizations. If they can concentrate more on the compliance part and the security information part, it would be helpful. The platform part is good, but it requires many features from the security aspect."
"The level of scalability depends on the license you have. You can expand or reduce it based on the environment. It does cost more money to scale, however."
"In terms of the interface, it could include some improvements for the look and feel."
"While Splunkbase (the app repository) has a lot of great content, some apps are terribly old and could stand to be updated or purged."
"The complexity could be worked on so that it's even easier and faster."
"When you get into large amounts of data, Splunk can get pretty slow. This is the same on-premise or AWS, it doesn't matter. The way that they handle large data sets could be improved."
"Sometimes, there is latency in the logs."
"Splunk needs to be able to hold more days of data. At the moment it only holds three months of data."
