I use New Relic for monitoring and observing the entire environment. It offers end-to-end monitoring and observability to predict potential impacts in the coming weeks. For instance, it can detect if two endpoints start consuming more bandwidth than usual, thereby providing more insights about potential impacts on the environment.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. Too costly. Compared with other platforms which provide almost similar features, New Relic price is very high.
2. The SDK for the android platform is not fully optimized. If we implement new relic SDK in our app, the progaurd needs to be disabled, which is not good for the code obfuscation of our app.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
New relic provides visibility into our application and server, which helps to detect performance issues or bottlenecks and respond to incidents quicker. New relic's ability to co-relate application errors with server or database spikes or slowdowns helps to identify and mitigate the issues faster, thus significantly improving our downtimes and optimizations. The proactive alerting also helps to optimize performance before the users can notice an impact, therefore making it a critical tool in our fine tuning and reliability monitoring.
End-to-End Application Monitoring

Powerful observability with learning curve for beginners
What do you like best about the product?
I liked robust and intuitive platform for monitoring, comprehensive dashboards for insights and real time alerts. Easy to use after getting the hold of it. Integration was easier than expected.
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning curve felt like bit steep for new comers, pricing structure was complicated and a little more on expensive side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped us solve critical problems related to infra health by real time issue detection and application performance monitoring. Insights were helpful in detecting bottlenecks.
Simple to use, effective to apply.
What do you like best about the product?
a grate feature was the ease of use. I used in my Node Application, it was very easy to integrate and implement in the overall application. All it took was installing the npm package and a few lines of code to add in my code base.
Another feature I loved was the user experience, it was very smooth. Every feature was easily available, while the customer support is amazing, user rarely needs it because they can explore easily on their own.

What do you dislike about the product?
The free tier allows very limited user to access. Makes it a bit difficult to collaborate. Also a minor flaw was logs, I tried to monitor logs but the logs were not as detailed and robust as I expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly the product(s) used to have problems, a bad API or the server specs being not enough. This would often result in a slow app or sometimes a crash, what we needed was monitoring and observability of our entire infrastructure and application. While some cloud providers have their own tools, they are not as feature rich or there are multiple that are scattered, this eventually becomes cluttered and a mess to maintain.
New Relic helped us solve these problems by having all of the features such as logging, APM, Server Monitoring, Server health and more, all in a single platform. Since we started using New Relic, it has become much easier to debug problems, and be proactive regarding Application health and scaling.

Real-Time Alerts And User-Friendly Interface: A Product Analysis
What do you like best about the product?
Real time alerts, user friendly interface
What do you dislike about the product?
Supports many integrations so difficult to identify and configure the suitable one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improve compliance & risk management
Easy to use and highly customizable observability platform
What do you like best about the product?
New Relic makes it really easy to transition to their solution since its comes with many pre-built queries and ready to use monitors through its premium interfaces. The solution is cloud-agnostic and highly compatible with various telemetry sources, which made it an ideal all-in-on ecosystem for our observability needs. We were able to utilize it to get more granular on what we spend our money on and further optimize our logs and traces. One of the stronger feature they offer is their application and performance monitoring interface (APM), which comes mostly ready-to-use with set monitors and tools to drill into discrepancies.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think one of the downside of New Relic is its pricing structure, which comprised of two components : the amount of data ingested and the number of user seats provisionned at each tier level. Altough the basic access tier come free of charge and the core tiers is pretty affordable, they do fall short when it come to usability of the more important features New Relic has to offer. The full platform access tier does provide all the functionnalities most users need, but the price increase is very substantial with this one. I would love for New Relic to come up with an alternative tier that provides a bit more than core, yet less that full platform, at an intermediate price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
New relic is solving the problem of keeping track of various monitor that comes in diverse format and from various telemetry source, and it does so all in one place and in a consistent matter. The benefit I get from the platform are end-to-end obersability, which translates to automation of alerting workflow, quicker incident response and better SLA for our services.

Having this end-to-end tracing of transactions is key for identifying performance improvements and bottlenecks.
What do you dislike about the product?
New Relic is loaded with features but what we dislike is the potentially complicated and pricey pricing structure for smaller businesses or those who do not require extensive monitoring.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
New Relic has been critical in keeping my applications healthy and performant. It has helped me to identify problems before they arise and with adequate solution, facilitated judicious use of resources, and provide a smooth user experience.
Efficient network monitoring with robust APM and alerting capabilities
What is our primary use case?
