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.

Integrating third-party tools for effective data management and reporting
There are challenges with the data collector options in Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics. When I upgrade, the data collector tends to stop working, requiring me to open a case with Veritas. It takes them a long time, usually over a month, to resolve the issue, which is a pain point. I believe improving this aspect would enhance the user experience.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customer Service: Excellent. Technical Support: Excellent."
"Real-time error monitoring means I can drill down and see what’s happening."
"It integrates everything, which is awesome."
"The alerting is by far the most valuable feature, closely followed by the way the platform correlates incidents across applications and components."
"New Relic always gets new things done."
"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."
"New Relic has positively impacted my organization by helping with our observability goals."
"Given we have only one infrastructure guy and he can manage all of this, and a small team, everyone can use it all for different purposes."
"My experience with the technical support by Veritas is pretty good."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the insight it provides on the console."
"It's helpful because I can have full visibility of my IT environment."
"The scalability is great. It is one of the best advantages that I find important."
"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."
"The valuable features include getting an overview of the backup status and gaining an understanding of my backup environment."
"Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics is technically much simpler than many backups, which provides a competitive advantage."
 

Cons

"New Relic APM could improve error debugging and the correlation with the logs. We are receiving some alerts or alarms but we need to correlate with the error log, but it is difficult if it is more than seven months retention period, it is hard to trace. We need this especially for getting historical information."
"The cost of the solution is high on a per-node licensing scheme and that’s the prohibitive factor, but in terms of the actual scalability there are no issues."
"I would like to see the company implement the AI auto-baseline feature which Dynatrace has."
"The initial setup can be made easier. Like Mixpanel, New Relic can also have a step-by-step guide for the setup process."
"There were some settings we had issues with."
"Documentation could be improved in New Relic APM, so users would have more clarity on configuring the dashboard. If New Relic gave better guidelines, users would find it easier to understand the metrics and features of New Relic APM. Another area for improvement is integration with Kubernetes. Currently, the process isn't user-friendly. It's challenging and lacks documentation for users to understand how to integrate New Relic APM with Kubernetes quickly. With multiple levels of Kubernetes dockers and other DBs on different clouds, it's tricky to gather all into New Relic APM on a single dashboard. What I'd like to see in the next version of New Relic APM is a single dashboard where you can easily view which applications fall under specific APMs. If there's a search feature where you can type in a keyword to find out if an APM is related to a particular application, that would be great."
"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."
"There are a number of plugins that New Relic makes. It would be nice to be able to instantly integrate that with APM."
"The documentation could be better; this should be improved."
"The technical support from Veritas is disappointing as they take a long time, often over a month or two, to resolve issues."
"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."
"The solution should allow users to export data to Tableau."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is less expensive than AppNeta."
"Pricing is better with New Relic APM than Dynatrace."
"We spend somewhere around $5,000 to $6,000 per month with an annual recommitment of maybe $60,000. These are just ballpark figures."
"This is an expensive tool."
"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 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 price of New Relic could improve. It is expensive."
"It would be nice if we could buy it annually instead of monthly."
"The product has a fair price."
