Likelihood to Recommend New - relic is well suited if you want to analyse the performance of your services and you want to improve it. Integration with multiple services with same account gives a clear picture of flow of your APIs if you have micro-service architecture. New-relic is less appropriate when you want to do logging of your system. As it does not emits every single calls
Read full review SiteScope is definitely well suited in an HP server environment. It is also well suited for virtual server environments. It is also well suited for those who are happy with email and text based message alerting. It may not be appropriate in other environments where monitoring physical components is critical. Because HP SiteScope does not monitor certain physical components, it does fall short of being able to be a "one stop shop solution" in regard to monitoring. It is not well suited for those looking for logic in how alerts are sent and cascade to other people or groups.
Read full review Pros gives us an monitoring of all our underlying servers and also we can configure some alerts upon them like CPU and memory alerts. Kubernetes cluster monitoring with new relic for EKS gives us and minute details of our cluster utilisation like node usage, pods memory request and limits Network traceability for each and every request with response time analysis is great we can trace which component is responsible for generating response delay log managements of the logs the infrastructure is generating we can view logs through there only Read full review Alerts can be configured as per business requirement. It can take remedial action, when defined for a particular situation. Severity, priority of tickets which are created upon a trigger can be well defined. The teams which need to be alerted can be configured in the tool itself, in case of any event. Read full review Cons I would like to see sort of simulator inside the user interface, that way we can send requests directly from it to test some configuration instead of setting up a test environment in our end. It would be nice if the data ingestion can be filtered by APM's. That way we can know which application is ingested most data. It would be nice if we could ingest logs (apache, system logs, and other logs) and correlate them with the APM. Read full review Sitescope is particularly used for infrastructure monitoring. Other kinds of monitors cannot be set using HP sitescope. Sitescope cannot have graphs like splunk which is why we have splunk as well which is an additional cost for the company. We can't have a direct regex operations on data inside HP sitescope. We need to have the logs placed as a single log and then do that. Read full review Likelihood to Renew The only issue that we have had with New Relic is that the price might be a little expensive for smaller companies. The amount of data you store in New Relic impacts the cost, and can get away from you if you don't work closely with the vendor. Overall though the application is top notch.
Read full review Usability As an engineer, New Relic has been very quick and easy for me to pick up/install/use. It has been less easy for some of the less technical-minded folks in our organization and their UI still is inconsistent multiple years after refactoring their platform to be New Relic One.

Read full review Support Rating There are times I feel that the initial support is lacking. And in some cases the automated responses of not hearing anything are annoying if the reason why there has been no movement is because we are still waiting to hear back from NR support. So, i think they should loose the automation as it can seem disingenuous
Read full review Can't really answer this. Setup was easy and no support has really been used at this point.
Read full review Implementation Rating It's better to start by implementing New Relic in one project and test everything. Try to follow best recommended practices and read all the official documentation. Everything seems well tested. Then, start by installing agents to the rest of your projects and keep a close look to all logs and metrics New Relic gives you.
Read full review Alternatives Considered New Relic is the most full-featured offering that we've found, and is incredibly easy to start using with a PHP app. The New Relic agent is installed as a PHP extension so it is able to monitor and track the performance of any PHP app being run by the web server. Other tools required the installation and setup of a PHP dependency at the application level.
Read full review SiteScope unified console is a powerful tool for operators to easily detect warnings and alerts grouped by its hierarchical organization with real-time status displaying continuously the whole health map.
Read full review Scalability Agent deployment is easily integrated into our workflow. Adding the agent to new servers is quick and painless
Read full review Return on Investment Less time debugging issues or letting issues go unknown We know of issues before our customers One common tool for logs, apm, infrastructure, and most alerting. Makes for easier developer experience. Cost is expensive and is one of highest engineering spends Read full review Sitescope does exactly what it was purchased for. It may take some time to set it up but once its set up it is a rock solid product. Read full review ScreenShots
