New Relic Reviews

Some users have seen a good ROI from using New Relic, while others have not experienced any return on investment or are unsure if they have seen one. 

New Relic's pricing and licensing model is a mixed bag according to user experiences. Some find it overpriced, with a poor licensing scheme and high costs for full-stack observability. Others find the pricing reasonable, with a great payment structure and only paying for data ingested. Some users feel that New Relic is more affordable than competitors and has reasonable prices and packages. However, there are concerns about additional costs for extra features and charging per user ID.

• "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 cheap, but prices can go up when users grow."
• "I think it's overpriced for the technical support that we get. We spent over 1,00,000 USD a year."
