System Engineer at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
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.

Provides you with powerful analysis of your network and business infrastructure
There are instances of imitation, like with processors. As customers, we aim to develop this area, particularly focusing on the networking facility and connectivity. The challenge lies in the connection between the DC and MDR, which is quite distant. The link between them needs to be reliable. When direct fiber isn't available, they resort to using dark fiber, which can lead to some limitations. This situation presents another layer of complexity, requiring approximately 11 feet of additional infrastructure. This is essential for ensuring that applications have minimal latency. In the event of any issues, an account is set up for cache memory to ensure that the system remains operational and can recover data from the cache as needed. Additionally, I have a secondary aspect to consider.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"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 suitable for banking domains, investment brokerage products, or anything related to high-security data, and it works as a whole monitoring solution, including logging, monitoring, and application profiling tools."
"Go with it. It is a good product. It gives us the visibility that we need in monitoring."
"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
"It supports our Black Friday week, when our requests increase about 500 percent."
"The scalability of New Relic APM is good; we have not had any issue with scalability when we use different types of loads, and it worked very well."
"There are many valuable features in New Relic APM. We developed some software applications and we are able to monitor the errors very easily. Their log security retention is very good."
"The UI interface and navigation make it easy for a novice user to quickly use the provided relevant performance application data to determine how well their application is performing and to see other areas which may require some further tuning."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to Drill down to webpage actions."
"Before RUEI came in, the users from production took hours to resolve issues, or couldn't end up finding a root cause."
"Customer satisfaction higher than before."
"Even if you don't have a QA tool, you can automate a lot of the quality assurance functions through ORUEI."
"The availability of the solution is its most valuable aspect. I can also Google anything I want and upload it on the cloud. I can do that using the mobile app. It is very helpful."
"ORUEI lets you create a dashboard that shows you insight into the user experience."
"The customers requires redundancy work to achieve a 99.999% uptime. To accomplish this, we installed this solution into storage. This setup ensures that if one node goes down, the system remains operational through another node. So that's the core aspect of the setup. Additionally, the schedule and the rental database run on servers, and behind these servers, we have storage. This storage operates as a single storage cluster, although there might be another storage option that costs around $30."
"The availability of the solution is its most valuable aspect, and I can also Google anything I want and upload it on the cloud using the very helpful mobile app."
 

Cons

"Installation of plugins seem to be really difficult due to the documentation available."
"I’m into very dense charts, and I think the charts used throughout APM are a little low resolution in terms of time points across the X axis."
"If they added the monitoring to the ops-server side, it would be better."
"At times some of the data can be opaque."
"Perhaps the retention on some of the old problem traces would be an improvement."
"Currently, it is not the only solution we have for monitoring so there are things that it’s missing – for example what Datadog does for us."
"One thing I'd like to see in any APM, especially New Relic, is the ability to use distributed transactions. When one microservice calls another, it calls another database and microservice. The entire data visualization layer will not be able to correlate from one microservice from end to end and return on that path. Distributed transactions would be a great addition that would make life simpler. Unfortunately, no APM has that end-to-end capability."
"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."
"Currently, it monitors web applications well, but ORUEI doesn't monitor mobile applications yet."
"Licensing is very expensive for this solution."
"The application resource usage has increased due to using RUEI."
"Currently, it monitors web applications well, but ORUEI doesn't monitor mobile applications yet. It would be nice if they also added the ability to monitor mobile apps."
"It would be nice if the solution could be integrated with Outlook. If I'm signing any quotation, any proposal, or any of my communications, I should be able to update that Oracle application as well."
"There are instances of imitation, like with processors. As customers, we aim to develop this area, particularly focusing on the networking facility and connectivity. The challenge lies in the connection between the DC and MDR, which is quite distant. The link between them needs to be reliable. When direct fiber isn't available, they resort to using dark fiber, which can lead to some limitations.

Additionally, I have a secondary aspect to consider."
"The application resource usage has increased due to using RUEI."
"It is a bit complex for newbie."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The monthly cost os $1000 per server per month, but it could be even more. We pay about $250 for the server, and then New Relic wants over $1000 to give us statistics on those servers."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one means cheap, and ten means very expensive."
"The solution is quite expensive. It costs around $5,000 a month. There aren't any additional costs above that."
"The solution is less expensive than AppNeta."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive, and I believe that it is a competitively-priced tool."
"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."
"It would be nice if we could buy it annually instead of monthly."
"The detection piece of it brings us a big return on investment."
