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.

Comprehensive visibility satisfies needs but instant recovery is essential
I would recommend that they implement instant mass recovery because in Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics, it takes a very long time. During the last issue that occurred due to the counter-strike, we needed recovery instantly for a large number of machines, more than a thousand machines, and Cohesity was the best solution for us. Management gained more confidence that in the future, we will go with Cohesity instead of Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics. I would still recommend Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics to others. They should implement new features which other competitors are offering to customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is the best tool for gaining insight into SaaS or cloud-based applications that we’ve seen."
"The alert mechanism is quite accurate when something goes wrong in your system. For example, if you have hundreds of APIs on your server, and any of the APIs is not performing well, you get an alert. When there is a drop or change in the threshold value, the beauty of New Relic is that within a fraction of seconds, all the stakeholders who are configured in the New Relic system will get an alert. That's one good thing."
"There are many valuable features in New Relic APM; we developed some software applications and we are able to monitor the errors very easily, and their log security retention is very good."
"Its most valuable feature is application performance monitoring, as it gives me a complete x-ray of the application to understand where the bottlenecks are, then improve and fix issues."
"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."
"Saves so much time in debugging our code and environments."
"We were able to save $1,000 per month."
"Its greatest benefit comes from its ability to provide trending/marketing data."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
"My experience with the technical support by Veritas is pretty good."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the insight it provides on the console."
"The most valuable aspects of Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics are its reporting capabilities and the ability to integrate with third-party tools, such as an ITSM system, for automated checks on live backup statuses."
"It's helpful because I can have full visibility of my IT environment."
"The valuable features include getting an overview of the backup status and gaining an understanding of my backup environment."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
"The scalability is great. It is one of the best advantages that I find important."
 

Cons

"In the first stage, the area of development, infrastructure and communication portal."
"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."
"There may be issues with scalability with individual users sending events up to the cloud."
"New Relic APM can improve the information when we dig deeper to check a problem. There should be more detailed information provided."
"It’s generally stable, but last year it was a little flaky."
"It is complicated, especially in how you interpret the data that it provides. If it had a bit more canned, out-of-the-box features, especially some of the reporting features, that would be more useful."
"However, there could be problems or hiccups with the integration with Java-based services and microservices."
"It’s really powerful with a lot of features, but some training and documentation from New Relic would be useful."
"The quality of technical support has decreased over time with slower response times compared to before."
"During the last issue that occurred due to the counter-strike, we needed recovery instantly for a large number of machines, more than a thousand machines, and Cohesity was the best solution for us."
"The process should be made easier."
"The process should be made easier. It is very complicated, and there is more with NetBackup; it is very difficult for me to oversee."
"NetBackup is not great in disaster recovery (DR) and data center to DR setup, especially in the Cloud environment. Veritas Resiliency Platform is not very handy for cloud-to-cloud, cross-platform replication."
"NetBackup is not great in disaster recovery (DR) and data center to DR setup, especially in the Cloud environment."
"The technical support from Veritas is disappointing as they take a long time, often over a month or two, to resolve issues."
"The solution should allow users to export data to Tableau."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one means cheap, and ten means very expensive."
"We feel it's a little bit pricey."
"The pricing and licensing are good if you have an account manager and a partner manager who are looking to help out."
"The pricing is fine."
"This is an expensive tool."
"I think it's overpriced for the technical support that we get. We spent over 1,00,000 USD a year."
"The solution is priced reasonably. New Relic APM is one of the best products for me because it's economical, so anyone can easily pick it over other solutions and use it."
"Comparatively, the pricing is expensive."
"The product has a fair price."
