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.

Comprehensive visibility satisfies needs but instant recovery is essential
I would recommend that they implement instant mass recovery because in Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics, it takes a very long time. 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. Management gained more confidence that in the future, we will go with Cohesity instead of Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics. I would still recommend Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics to others. They should implement new features which other competitors are offering to customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I really love it."
"Server uptime is its most valuable feature."
"Both developers and operations people can look at the same data, and that’s a great benefit."
"The most valuable feature of New Relic APM is the dashboard, New Relic Insights. I configured my own dashboard to monitor certain parameters."
"Monitoring is a crucial thing for every work, and New Relic is doing a very good job in this part."
"I’ve gotten our teams to use New Relic to help them craft code that properly performs right out of the gate."
"New Relic is now the leader in efficiency improvement."
"Its most valuable feature is application performance monitoring, as it gives me a complete x-ray of the application to understand where the bottlenecks are, then improve and fix issues."
"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."
"Veritas NetBackup IT Analytics is technically much simpler than many backups, which provides a competitive advantage."
"It's helpful because I can have full visibility of my IT environment."
"The deduplication engine compared to Azure backups is a cost-efficient feature regarding storage."
"My experience with the technical support by Veritas is pretty good."
"The valuable features include getting an overview of the backup status and gaining an understanding of my backup environment."
"The scalability is great. It is one of the best advantages that I find important."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the insight it provides on the console."
 

Cons

"There are certain features that are not supported in New Relic, such as CATSEARCH, which allows you to do a full-text search."
"Sometimes it’s too difficult to get more details about a problem. Sometimes it requires too much drilling down to find out about a problem for which we shouldn't need to do so much searching."
"Data Dog captures the entire session and then provides it as a video player path, which gives more insight into what the user was doing. It's pretty impressive. New Relic does that, yet it only captures using a couple of screenshots, which is not very detailed since you are unable to see the entire user flow."
"The pricing and licensing are too high."
"I would like a feature where I can turn off alerting at a policy level. Thus, when a policy is inactive, I can shut down all of my alerts within the policy."
"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."
"One issue is cost."
"I would like better alerting."
"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."
"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 process should be made easier. It is very complicated, and there is more with NetBackup; it is very difficult for me to oversee."
"The process should be made easier."
"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 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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We're paying for the New Relic APM license annually."
"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."
"They gave us aggressive discounts when they were brought in for the first time, but they have also kept them for the year-on-year renewals, which has been absolutely fine."
"This is an expensive tool."
"The pricing is fine."
"We feel it's a little bit pricey."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive, and I believe that it is a competitively-priced tool."
"New Relic is either free with low retention and minimal functionalities, or expensive with full options and retention."
"The product has a fair price."
