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 use it for monitoring, identifying when services go down, or when they are outside of what we would consider normal operations."
"You don't have to go through a list of 500 servers."
"We have a standard visibility process for any application that rolls out, and it gives us the ability to train our people and provide a more responsive application."
"I can have my developers find bugs and fix them in one-tenth of time they used to take."
"If you want to keep monitoring your site and find the performance of it, this is a good option to do so."
"The API functionality allows us to get hit counts from external sources, such as APIs or databases, and everything is mapped very clearly."
"New Relic has been in the business for a while, it offers a wide selection to attach a monitoring mobile app, server, and cloud, and if you want to go with just one product, it fits all your needs."
"New Relic is easy to use even for someone with no knowledge; by seeing the dashboard, they can easily find out the application's health and notice what is happening."
"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

"New Relic can be improved, particularly by enhancing the UI, which is currently a bit off."
"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."
"Mobile APP's Performance Monitoring."
"Email alert customization is limited."
"It’s really powerful with a lot of features, but some training and documentation from New Relic would be useful."
"Raw transaction didn’t give us data that we needed."
"The scalability can be improved."
"I would like if it could have predictive analysis. Today, we only have the option to configure thresholds."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I recommend using the free version of New Relic. If you like the free version and understand its importance for your company, you can move to the trial. Then, you can migrate to the paid version."
"The solution is cheap, but prices can go up when users grow."
"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."
"We spend somewhere around $5,000 to $6,000 per month with an annual recommitment of maybe $60,000. These are just ballpark figures."
"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 was one of the reasons we chose this solution."
"We deploy everything on AWS. Purchasing the product on AWS Marketplace made it easier for us."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive, and I believe that it is a competitively-priced tool."
"For monitoring specifically, it's not that expensive. The licensing is yearly basis."
