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

"The ease of use, the information you can get out of it from the very little things you do – you get so much out of it."
"We like the performance of the product."
"The overview itself provides us clear visibility of how applications are doing, and provides us our response times, data rates, and Apdex score."
"We were able to save $1,000 per month."
"The most valuable features are the dashboards and tracing."
"Breadth of features, user experience, and constant development of the platform, as well as the value it’s adding to our business."
"However, as a dev-ops tool, it has been priceless."
"We looked for a product that gives the data in a way that is easy to visualize, is reliable, and is simple."
"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

"I would like if it could have predictive analysis. Today, we only have the option to configure thresholds."
"The product's initial setup phase is not straightforward to manage if you have no experience with installations, making it an area that can be improved."
"The pricing and licensing are too high."
"It helps prevent issues but does not cause losses. The error messages and deep insights may help us find the root cause and resolve the issue, but it could be a bit better."
"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."
"Sometimes it works really slow, but I think it depends on the organization-to-organization usage."
"I would say that the user interface is maybe a little bit overly complicated."
"The initial setup can be made easier. Like Mixpanel, New Relic can also have a step-by-step guide for the setup process."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It would be nice if we could buy it annually instead of monthly."
"This solution required a license and it is better than some other competitors."
"The price of New Relic could improve. It is expensive."
"I think it's overpriced for the technical support that we get. We spent over 1,00,000 USD a year."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one means cheap, and ten means very expensive."
"The price of New Relic APM could be less expensive. We are using the New Relic APM pro account and it is more costly. When compared to competitors the solution's pricing should be much more realistic."
"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."
"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."
"For monitoring specifically, it's not that expensive. The licensing is yearly basis."
