New Relic for Web Apps

Overall Satisfaction with New Relic

We use NewRelic primarily for application performance management (APM), though have enabled a few of the optional extras (infrastructure, as an example). The software makes it easy for us to find performance bottlenecks in code while making system up-time monitoring simplistic and efficient.

Insights allow us to create useful dashboards to keep a close eye on web server errors, CPU usage, transaction deviation and more.
  • Simplifies bottleneck diagnostics
  • Create alerts easily for system events (errors, traffic, 404-ing etc) and integrate easily with third parties
  • Monitor web page performance & site usage
  • Steep learning curve
  • No Apple Watch app, though the NewRelic iOS app can flag alerts on your watch, if you have them configured
  • Improved application performance
  • Significantly reduced run-time on mission critical tasks
  • Reduced downtime periods
New Relic is very well suited to identify performance bottlenecks and identify areas where there's room for improvement in your application. It narrows down the time and resource consumption to a method-level which makes it much simpler for developers to implement performance enhancements and apply fixes more practically than out in the wild.
