NetApp OnCommand Insight vs. New Relic vs. Splunk On-Call

I have used New Relic in different scenarios like monitoring my production infrastructure and applications which helps us to reduce the downtime of my applications and websites and also I have used the synthetic monitoring feature which helps to proactively monitor our websites availability. Along with this I have also used New Relic for cloud resources cost monitoring which helps to reduce my cloud cost. Also I have used mobile application monitoring which helps me to trace the sessions easily and I can easily reduce my RCA through the help of that.

Splunk On-Call has proved to be a great help in incident response within my organization. With the scheduling and assignment feature it is never in question which engineer is tasked with each assignment/incident. Being able to quickly and easily access all relevant logs greatly expedites incident resolution time. I would argue that the larger the environment and incident volume, the more important a tool such as this will prove to be.

• New Relic APM allows us to follow up transactions across services and trace performance bottlenecks in real-time, crucial when monitoring the processing of energy loads or predictive maintenance algorithms.
• It gives us deep visibility into our cloud servers, containers and IOT gateways, so we can catch CPU spikes or memory leaks which can impact the data we ingest from the field devices.
• We develop custom dashboards for monitoring trends of power consumption, abnormality in sensors and API health. In conjunction with alerting, it makes sure we are fixing issues before customers even see them.

• Easily assign work/tickets between multiple users
• Supports a wide variety of software integrations
• Easy to manage scheduling tool
• As part of the Splunk toolset, provides detailed levels of data analysis at our engineers fingertips

Incentivized

• Support for SQL like query with more functional features of analysis while viewing distributed tracing.
• support for very low level specific integration from APIs to classes to functions to piece of code
• More detailed documentation, as we faced issues while integrating for the first time.

• The user interface can be furthe improved
• Licensing needs to be simplified and packaged as a bundle with other Splunk product like Enterprise Security

I have not yet found any similar product that offers me this range of features to help us keep our online service fast and reliable. Besides this, New Relic is constantly evolving by adding new plugins to emerging technologies and platforms. Server performance measuring features are a key point as our user database grows.

It was a good solution with a good comprimise prize/features for our use cases

I have given this much rating as I am used New Relic in different sectors and for different use cases like its K8s monitoring, infra monitoring, full stack monitoring as compare to other tools New Relic gives data in a formatted and connected way, and also it is giving us value for money. It also launches new features day by day which helps users to track the issue very quickly. It also supports OTel integrations which is the latest trend of observability tools. thats why I had given this much rating to New Relic.

The support team has been really helpful and resolved most of the issues on time. However, for a couple of issues, several follow-ups were needed to elicit a reasonable response. The issue was deeply technical and could have been investigated only by their Architects, and bringing them into the ticket took longer than needed

VictorOps support has proven excellent for us. Because it is such a widely used tool, there is a lot of documentation on usage, and a large community of users to lean on. Also, many engineers have had experience working with VictorOps already, and the tool is so easy to setup / manage that much support isn't really necessary.

The documentation was clear and concise; the only issue we ran into was custom application naming. Due to HTTPD mod_fcgid and the need for the application name to be set in php.ini (not in .htaccess or the virtual host directive) ... we had issues setting this up.

Before start using New Relic, we had a custom Grafana monitoring tool configured for our clients. Altough functional, it took too much time to add new alerts and monitoring features. New Relic is way easier and simpler to to configure and saves us a lot of time spent not only on configuration, but also keeping the service working.

Splunk is more intelligent, easy, and faster compared to other tools in the market. Easy to configure, and customization can be done easily. It's more user-friendly, and it adds more value when I mention about the navigation panel. Multi-level escalations and root cause analysis is done in an intelligent way. Troubleshooting is faster.

Agent deployment is easily integrated into our workflow. Adding the agent to new servers is quick and painless

• We spend six figures on this solution to avoid costs of a broken website.
• We could save more on cloud services (GCP, Azure, AWS) if New Relic allowed its licenses to be purchased through other marketplaces.
• New Relic handles some of the same operations that higher priced competitors do.

• Saved hundreds of IT worker hours utilizing a single platform
• More cohesive support SLA from IT support teams
• Reduced time updating on-call modifications
• Synchronized update cycle
