Jose Ramon Crespo - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Enterprise Director at Towers IT
Utilize artificial intelligence for faster issue response and seamless ITSM integration
The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features. These capabilities help us gather more information and analyze it faster, leading to better responses to issues. The tool is also excellent at integrating with ITSM services, providing a seamless alerting system for our customers.

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

"User session details"
"Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities."
"The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"The product is simple to use."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"The most important thing is that it tells us where the latency in throughput and response time are."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to receive in-depth information about applications. It can detect a lot of important information."
"The VPN is one of the solution's most valuable features for us."
"Working with the solution is very easy. It's user-friendly."
"What I like best about New Relic APM is its user interface because it's simple. The most valuable feature of New Relic APM is end-to-end monitoring."
"It is a software solution as a service, so I don't have to manage it on-premise."
"Monitoring is a crucial thing for every work, and New Relic is doing a very good job in this part."
"The most valuable features of New Relic are the reports and ease of use."
 

Cons

"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"The integration must be improved."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"eG Enterprise's licensing could be cheaper. Even compared to Dynatrace, I think the price is quite expensive considering the APM functionalities, even though they have other benefits such as info monitoring."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky."
"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."
"New Relic is priced on the higher side."
"How granular I could go down at looking at certain data, especially related to the operations, is limited."
"I think that there have been some questionable product enhancements. Over a year ago, New Relic rolled out a new navigation that really disrupted our workflow."
"The scalability can be improved."
"The price could improve."
"I would like an infrastructure network that provides real-time views, showing the issues."
"New Relic APM is a good tool, and it has a database of failures, but it could use a list of customer-specific failures. New Relic APM should be able to give my company advanced analytics through AI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not expensive."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"You may get some monitoring products with certain licensing you may own. Some of these can take ages to configure and setup, along with needing a license to drive the software."
"There are two licensing options: Perpetual and SaaS-based. The main offering, in terms of what eG prefers to offer, is the subscription-based rather than the Perpetual License. The price could be cheaper."
"The product is very cheap."
"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"Comparatively, the pricing is expensive."
"Because of budget, we are not using the mobile app part of this tool."
"The pricing is fine."
"The pricing model is a little confusing for beginners. They find it a little expensive, and if you are using it already, then that is not good."
"I think the pricing is reasonable."
"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."
"The new licensing model is great, as we pay for what we use (in computational units). However, the pricing is expensive compared to other tools."
"New Relic is either free with low retention and minimal functionalities, or expensive with full options and retention."
