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."
"With the metrics from New Relic, we can improve the performance and reduce the downtime because we can identify problems and solve them more quickly."
"The most valuable features are infrastructure monitoring and application performance monitoring (APM)."
"They instrument up from the bottom to the top – every piece of code - they have a very perfect read of what’s being done, and how long it’s taking."
"New Relic is now the leader in efficiency improvement."
"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."
"Helped us pin point the exact piece causing the performance bottleneck by using the transaction trace view."
"It is easier to create new dashboards in the New Relic interface, and it is also easier to query if when I want to monitor a different parameter or time duration on my dashboard."
"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

"Last year, there were several New Relic outages where alerts were either fired in error or not fired at all."
"I hope the next release has the ability to retain historical data. A current limitation is comparing a present call with that of the same time the previous day, or previous week."
"There may be issues with scalability with individual users sending events up to the cloud."
"I have logged a bug in their Ping Monitor within Synthetics and I need more improvement in this area."
"At times some of the data can be opaque."
"New Relic can be improved, particularly by enhancing the UI, which is currently a bit off."
"There has been some problem with the agent, and it is just not working well. It is not able to record information with the application server. They have been able to fix the issue, but it took quite a long time. This is the main issue in the APM products and also in New Relic. The mobile application monitoring has been pretty difficult to set up and also quite expensive. It should be a little bit easier and cheaper. Because it is pretty difficult and expensive, many customers don't take it."
"Raw transaction didn’t give us data that we needed."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is okay comparatively their competitors. The only concern was whether it should be purchased on demand or bring your own license, and which way passes some savings onto the end customers."
"Pricing is better with New Relic APM than Dynatrace."
"We're paying for the New Relic APM license annually."
"This is an expensive product."
"We deploy everything on AWS. Purchasing the product on AWS Marketplace made it easier for us."
"The pricing is fine."
"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 price of New Relic could improve. It is expensive."
"For monitoring specifically, it's not that expensive. The licensing is yearly basis."
