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.
BasilJiji - PeerSpot reviewer
System Engineer at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
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

"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"The product is simple to use."
"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"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."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"It has given us better insight into the performance of the system."
"New Relic has positively impacted my organization by making it easier to catch failures so I can resolve them quickly and take action."
"It allows the restriction of privileges and control of users."
"New Relic has positively impacted our organization by reducing errors, improving performance, and saving time."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It is easy to track and easy to follow."
"Using New Relic speeds up troubleshooting and resolution, giving us a clearer picture of where issues are, thus saving time and effort."
"It is a one stop shop and integrated with PagerDuty seamlessly. The solution is pretty self-contained."
"We detect issues using dashboards that we built on New Relic."
 

Cons

"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."
"The integration must be improved."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"We would like to receive more AWS-specific details from the New Relic Dashboard, like EC2 health."
"There has been some problem with the agent, and it is just not working well. It is not able to record information with the application server. They have been able to fix the issue, but it took quite a long time. This is the main issue in the APM products and also in New Relic. The mobile application monitoring has been pretty difficult to set up and also quite expensive. It should be a little bit easier and cheaper. Because it is pretty difficult and expensive, many customers don't take it."
"I would like to see the company implement the AI auto-baseline feature which Dynatrace has."
"New Relic can be improved, particularly by enhancing the UI, which is currently a bit off."
"New Relic does enable frontend performance monitoring by default. However, when we are troubleshooting the issue, New Relic is not able to trace back to the service where the issue is. Other solutions, such as Dynatrace are better."
"New Relic APM can improve the information when we dig deeper to check a problem. There should be more detailed information provided."
"However, there could be problems or hiccups with the integration with Java-based services and microservices."
"They could improve the education process and how people understand that these tools are very technical. Right now, if someone was to pick it up from day one, it is a very steep learning curve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"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."
"If using eG for virtual desktops, carefully calculate whether per named user, per concurrent user, or per server"
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"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."
"It is not expensive."
"The product is very cheap."
"They gave us a good price, when they were found out we were looking at other products because their price was very high. We were looking at another solution, then we came back to them was because they brought the price down. We selected them for three years."
"This solution required a license and it is better than some other competitors."
"This is an expensive tool."
"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."
"This is an expensive product."
"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."
"The price of the solution could be less expensive. You have to pay a lot for each user. There is an additional cost for extra features."
"The pricing is okay comparatively their competitors. The only concern was whether it should be purchased on demand or bring your own license, and which way passes some savings onto the end customers."
"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."
