Offers a great reporting experience, with much customization and flexibility in extracting reports but it can be more user-friendly
My experience indicates that it needs enhancements in the UI. We are in 2024, and the GUI doesn't meet current expectations for user interfaces or Excel integration. Mainly, CA Service Desk has such a bad user interface. All features and systems, like servers, should have a modern graphical user interface, but CA Service Desk remains classic and still uses a desktop-based interface. It doesn't add features easily; if you need additional functionality, you have to go through many steps. Competitors like ServiceNow, Micro Focus SMAX, and ManageEngine all have better user interfaces. This is the main solution that needs improvement. I am very satisfied with the modeling systems, the grid, and the existing features, except for the graphical user interface.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The documentation and the technical support are both quite good."
"All solutions from Broadcom are very easy to install."
"New Relic has changed the way we are dealing with application problems."
"The solution's most valuable aspects are that it tracks java better and operates very efficiently."
"We like the performance of the product; it's very good, very reliable, and all features are capable of responding to our requirements."
"The thing that's nice about New Relic is it doesn't try and do everything, it does what it does."
"We have never faced any issues with this solution, and we are not worried about the technical capability."
"The New Relic toolset has become part of our SDLC -- reviewing the changes we made for impact to the production environment."
"It's industry-leading, the most responsive full suite of tools that I’ve used."
"The solution is good for sending alerts, drawing graphs about system usage, and creating plug-ins."
 

Cons

"They lack support and presence in Egypt."
"The UI could be better. When I look at the dashboard, for example, the information looks cluttered and unorganized."
"There is still a lot of improvement that is needed in terms of stability. We figured out that it was not able to monitor or offer some forms of self-service capabilities."
"I would like better alerting."
"We would like to receive more AWS-specific details from the New Relic Dashboard, like EC2 health."
"I haven't come across any features that are lacking."
"There are certain features that are not supported in New Relic, such as CATSEARCH, which allows you to do a full-text search."
"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."
"Better error reporting Better ability to drill-down into errors"
"However, there could be problems or hiccups with the integration with Java-based services and microservices."
"I think New Relic can be more simple to use because for beginners it can be more difficult to use, so I think New Relic can improve in that aspect."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, with ten being expensive. So, it is rather cheap."
"This solution required a license and it is better than some other competitors."
"The price of New Relic could improve. It is expensive."
"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."
"It would be nice if we could buy it annually instead of monthly."
"This is an expensive tool."
"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."
"We deploy everything on AWS. Purchasing the product on AWS Marketplace made it easier for us."
"I think the pricing is reasonable."
