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

"We’re able to see real-time sessions come through, talk directly to customers as they’re having issues with the site, and pull up their email addresses to see what issues they have, which makes it crucial for customer support and engineering."
"This is a really awesome tool, giving you in and out of your entire backend framework in a cohesive manner."
"It is one of the things that helps DevOps work in our organization and has helped stop finger pointing."
"The service maps that it creates, the health maps that it creates, the insights that it provides, etc., are all quite useful."
"New Relic gave us a quick, easy way to monitor our web application for all of our systems."
"Before New Relic, dev and ops were separate, and now they’ve come together more and there’s less finger-pointing."
"Real-time error monitoring means I can drill down and see what’s happening."
"As a dev-ops tool, it has been priceless, as we are now able to pinpoint issues much quicker and can significantly reduce our downtime."
"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

"We would like a dashboard feature to be created for this product. This would allow us to monitor both the front and back-end of our UI's performance, and then report on it."
"We had a problem where our application crashed because of New Relic."
"Last year, there were several New Relic outages where alerts were either fired in error or not fired at all."
"I chose a rating of 8 out of 10 because the UI requires me to dig in and find the needed traces, and it can be more user-friendly."
"I think the APM mode can be improved. 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."
"Some of the 3rd party plugins could be improved - especially the requirement for java to monitor simple network services is not ideal."
"While the New Relic dashboards and UI are customizable, they can sometimes lead to a clumsy behavior."
"The UX/UI design of New Relic APM could be improved. The solution currently has some slow pages in terms of loading and viewing the pages, for example, the reports. The reports and other pages take a long time to load."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If I remember it correctly, the pricing was based on the core, and the monthly subscription used to cost us $1,500 or $2,000. We had pre-prod and production services. Costing was different for pre-prod and production. For pre-prod, it was 40% less than the production service cost. It was a combined package."
"Pricing is better with New Relic APM than Dynatrace."
"Comparatively, the pricing is expensive."
"The price was one of the reasons we chose this solution."
"The pricing model is a little confusing for beginners. They find it a little expensive, and if you are using it already, then that is not good."
"Purchasing through the AWS Marketplace was easy. The product is easy to deploy and manage, which is why our company purchased through the AWS Marketplace."
"The solution is cheap, but prices can go up when users grow."
"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."
"For monitoring specifically, it's not that expensive. The licensing is yearly basis."
