New Relic is used for real-time monitoring + Synthetic Monitoring.
New Relic is primarily used for Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Synthetic Monitoring. Their APM offering gives key insights into the health and performance of the company's web infrastructure. It is used to identify code bottlenecks, timeouts, and any requests or issues that are placing a heavy burden on the server. Additionally, it can be used to identify endpoints or requests that are causing poor customer experiences due to being slow or erroring. Synthetic Monitoring is used to evaluate whether certain functional features are working.
Monitoring ecommerce applications and performance thereof.

An All in One Solution
New Relic helps with collecting data from any source, along with troubleshooting issues around front-end or back-end issues and CPU spikes. We can then find vulnerabilities using the New Relic Inventory and work along with alerts. New Relic also addresses uptime and SLAs and where we can focus on observability with synthetics.

New Relic - Worth the Price
We use it to monitor the server resources like CPU, RAM, Disk, network, etc. On top of that, we also use logging and APM features to monitor the application closely.

Strong service but UX requires improvement
We use New Relic within the R&D department, but our support group uses it as well. We use it mainly for logging purposes (of our servers), but we also use it for monitoring our services and [sending] automatic alerts to ourselves based on these logs (meaning - when crossing a certain threshold of high error rates for example).
We use New Relic to set up dashboards to track errors, throughput, and performance. We also set up synthetic monitors and alarms to make sure our site pages are up and running.

New Relic is an insurance policy for revenue
New Relic gives us the monitoring and instrumentation capabilities to support a high transaction eCommerce platform and back-office functions. It gives us performance analysis on every new deployment and quickly provides us metrics and diagnostic logs to facilitate our investigation into any issues that arise. Its alerting means we have eyes on the system even out of hours and can help us protect revenues.

Solid Product for Full Stack Observability
We use New Relic to monitor our microservices, within an internal platform to manage them. The business provides financial products like payment, credits, accounts, transfers, etc, a shopping platform to sell products that extends to multiple countries, shipping logistics of those sells with warehouse management, and last-mile control.

New Relic makes my team's life easier!
New Relic is our platform of choice for the observability of our microservice architecture. Constantly spinning up and down microservices and understanding how they are performing in production is a critical need for our Engineering team. New Relic makes it easy for us to monitor our services and quickly identify any triage issues.

Opinion of a regular user
I use New Relic in order to monitor and follow KPI about our application. Particularly, this allows us to detect performance issues.

New Relic experience
Our company uses the New Relic for the monitoring and alerting initially. But along the way, as the New Relic keeps increasing the number of features, we as engineering also explore and learn more about the features. There are a lot of useful features that increase the visibility of our system condition in any segment in our stack, including Mobile Apps & browsers, API, Cluster, Infrastructure, Database, and many other services. New Relic also helps to detect anomalies in our system easier, make troubleshooting more simple, and monitor as comprehensive as our needs. The capability of New Relic is not limited to a system but also helps our business by monitoring the SLA and other business metrics that we can define by ourselves.

New Relic For Performance Testing
We use New Relic on a daily basis to monitor software application performance and server utilization. We performance test a wide range of software and need to actively monitor and assess system capacity and address any issues found. New Relic provides the capacity for us to monitor the applications live or view historical data.

Easy to start, hard to continue
We use New Relic for monitoring of websites, to get insights especially in errors, but also performance and latencies. There was initially some experimentation for other services as well, but the internal tools fulfilled those needs without the added costs of New Relic. The product as it is works well for the web use-case, but there are other competing offers out there.

New Relic - All In One Monitoring Solutions
New Relic is our main monitoring and APM tool, which allows devs and support to monitor the reliability of our systems. Without New Relic, we'd have to resort to setting up the monitoring and alerting ourselves, and I believe New Relic has been a critical piece of infrastructure that allows us to react quickly when an incident is detected.

A Must Have Tool for Software Developers or DevOps!
New Relic is an awesome tool and a must-have for any engineering team who would like to understand what is going on with their software. We use this software [on] a daily basis. Both the DevOps and the Engineering team use this service. The best thing [about] this tool is it lets you analyze traffic rate, server issues, code issues, page load time, and many more in real-time. This is very useful when there is high traffic on the site or if you would like to understand one particular issue. New Relic helps you to dive deep into the code and pinpoint exactly where the error is happening. I can't imagine running our systems without New Relic!
January 17, 2022
Well done New Relic!
We mainly use Infrastructure Alerts, Synthetic Checks, and Logging in our department for our web services and websites. Other departments may use other tools, it is independent. I[New Relic] is used to catch infrastructure issues and production errors early. Also, [New Relic,] helps us understand how our services are used externally, and how they perform.

The benefits of using New Relic with front end apps
The most important use of New Relic for us is API monitoring. With NewRelic we have a real-time update about the APIS health, so we have configured alerts that trigger messages in google chat when some API is not running well. Also, it helps a lot in problems investigations, providing a lot of data to understand what is going on. We have minimal use in frontend applications too, to monitor the performance of our SPA.

New Relic: Pros and Cons from real experience
New Relic is used across engineering departments to monitor how systems operate in both non-prod and production environments. For the component that I own, I use it to monitor Tomcat health (like the number of thread pools) and monitor the latency/error rate of the requests that my service handles. This helps us to understand how our system behaves, how much our system can handle, and help in capacity planning. I also set up important alert signals based on New Relic data and route the signal to Pager Duty that we have engineers on a routine schedule to pick up those alerts when something unexpected happened in production. This helps to quickly mitigate production issues that can surface to end-users

Using New Relic as game changer
We are using New Relic ONE throughout our whole organization for monitoring our microservice health and performance. APM is one of the most important features in New Relic we rely on to analyze our application overall quality after every deployment including memory and CPU usage, networking transaction, and error ratio. We create different alerts based on the metrics and query results to notify the team through the paging system, so we can solve issues immediately. The metrics are very accurate in real-time and help us to identify the issues quickly. The configuration to apply New Relic APM and Browser features are somewhat difficult. We have both Java and NodeJS based applications and when applications can not connect to New Relic, the log message doesn't describe where/how it's failing.

New Relic is great
We use New Relic daily to help monitor our software services across many environments and regions. New Relic gives us a responsive and easy-to-manage view of our data in useful dashboards. This allows us to quickly understand what is going on with our software and to understand when a problem may arise. Alerting in New Relic is fantastic and extremely customizable as nearly any query can be used. New Relic offers many useful solutions for our business such as monitoring, alerting, distributed tracing, service maps, and the list goes on. I would highly recommend New Relic to anyone looking for visibility on their software stack.
