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

"It has the ability to monitor random URLs not tied to the one pinger per application (though it costs extra)."
"Customer Service: Excellent. Technical Support: Excellent."
"New Relic shows how much time each SQL transaction (SQL query) is taking to execute, so the client can pinpoint the query and modify it so that it takes less time to execute."
"Reduced the worry in supporting live websites."
"The most valuable feature is the New Relic APM module to deep-dive into the application, to get bottlenecks to the surface, and to improve application performance. Also, the New Relic Insights module creates a real-time dashboard on application performance to create awareness for the DevOps team."
"New Relic has positively impacted my organization by helping with our observability goals."
"The most valuable feature is New Relic Insights, and our customers are happy with the dashboard and the data that it displays and the correlation between the components."
"It doesn't require much investment or technical expertise to implement, and I would recommend it for SME."
"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

"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."
"In terms of usability, I think the UI is acceptable, but it does not really guide you along with what you actually need."
"A lot of the features for application monitoring and uptime, and alerts for alerting the appropriate people when something goes wrong are not quite there yet."
"The thing missing from these platforms is connectivity."
"The pricing could be improved as it is quite high relative to what is offered."
"Error handling and reporting is a little lackluster, but they're announcing a whole new analytics approach."
"From a point of view of showing you what to do fine but in terms of showing you what to do with the data infuriatingly unhelpful."
"The mobile application monitoring has been pretty difficult to set up and also quite expensive."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution required a license and it is better than some other competitors."
"Because of budget, we are not using the mobile app part of this tool."
"Comparatively, the pricing is expensive."
"The price depends on how many agents you want."
"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."
"If it’s the right tool, it doesn’t matter what it costs because you’re going to get it back many-fold from your productivity."
"The solution is quite expensive. It costs around $5,000 a month. There aren't any additional costs above that."
"We deploy everything on AWS. Purchasing the product on AWS Marketplace made it easier for us."
"For monitoring specifically, it's not that expensive. The licensing is yearly basis."
