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

"New Relic positively impacts my organization by simplifying issue detection, allowing us to focus on what is important and avoid unnecessary searches."
"Previously, without a monitoring solution, a developer could potentially spend a day working on a feature or a bug to try and resolve an issue, but now, with monitoring in place, we can understand if a customer is actually hitting this bug, how often they are hitting it, and how much frustration they are dealing with on a day-by-day basis, then reprioritize our tasks."
"The stability of New Relic APM is very good."
"The tool's most valuable features were APM and core reliability. We get alerts whenever an anomaly is detected. The solution is very friendly."
"New Relic gives us one view over all our assets."
"We have never faced any issues with this solution, and we are not worried about the technical capability."
"Since using New Relic, time saved has improved by almost 50% due to the integration of Copilots and AI, and the ticket count reduction has surpassed 75%, allowing us to efficiently address similar issues."
"What the product has done for us was expedite our ability to discover actionable data that led directly to improvements in our app which would have taken considerable longer if we'd had to build similar functionality ourselves."
"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 have had issues with our agents going offline."
"The product has good documentation for Linux, however, their documentation for Windows is lacking substantially. It's something they need to develop."
"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."
"They don't have an opportunity to share the dashboard with the public. If you want to share it with stakeholders or people outside the organization who just want to have a look at a couple of metrics, you can't do that without onboarding them to the product itself."
"Data retention should be increased, advanced RCA and all possible and best recommendations should be provided. Pricing should be revised"
"New Relic can get pricey for larger organizations."
"The agents are updated quite frequently, but New Relic doesn't offer tools for doing the upgrade in large environments."
"Customer Service: Used rarely, was average. Technical Support: Used rarely, was average."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"New Relic is either free with low retention and minimal functionalities, or expensive with full options and retention."
"The pricing and licensing are too high."
"The detection piece of it brings us a big return on investment."
"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."
"I loved this product, but we can no longer afford it, so we dropped it."
"I think it's overpriced for the technical support that we get. We spent over 1,00,000 USD a year."
"The solution is less expensive than AppNeta."
"We feel it's a little bit pricey."
"For monitoring specifically, it's not that expensive. The licensing is yearly basis."
