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.

Offers real-time alerting and dashboards are great for performance hubs of the database
It's primarily for CPU utilization and resource monitoring. Vulnerability scanning falls under OCI Cloud Guard, so it's related to security concerns. Some people might prefer using a third-party tool for more enhanced features. However, I think Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service could be improved to reduce the need for third-party connectivity. So overall, third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service. OCI needs more research and development to understand why clients choose third-party tools like Splunk or QRadar over internal monitoring solutions. There must be some areas where third-party tools are better. OCI could analyze this and improve its service.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"With the help of New Relic APM, we managed to deliver an online B2B application with average response times below two seconds, where with v6, the average response times was about 30 seconds."
"New features are added often."
"This is a really awesome tool, giving you in and out of your entire backend framework in a cohesive manner."
"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."
"Go with it. It is a good product. It gives us the visibility that we need in monitoring."
"The deep insights, which will give you the metrics (not a high level), so we can build out at the database level where the bottleneck is. This has been pretty helpful."
"The most valuable feature is application monitoring."
"As New Relic is already integrated with Drupal, we can get our projects done with best practice and with the best value that we believe in."
"Real-time alerting is a very important feature. We need alerts for everything. We have alarms setup and get alerts through email or third-party integrations depending on what's happening – critical VMs, high CPU usage, security concerns."
 

Cons

"Email alert customization is limited."
"Mobile APP's Performance Monitoring."
"It could be faster, but they’re already working on making this."
"The customization of the start and end time is kind of cool."
"It is very difficult to award the service level cycles at an endpoint level."
"Sometimes it works really slow, but I think it depends on the organization-to-organization usage."
"There were some settings we had issues with."
"The agents are updated quite frequently, but New Relic doesn't offer tools for doing the upgrade in large environments."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Because of budget, we are not using the mobile app part of this tool."
"We deploy everything on AWS. Purchasing the product on AWS Marketplace made it easier for us."
"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."
"New Relic is either free with low retention and minimal functionalities, or expensive with full options and retention."
"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."
"It would be nice if we could buy it annually instead of monthly."
"The price of New Relic could improve. It is expensive."
"For monitoring specifically, it's not that expensive. The licensing is yearly basis."
