Overall Satisfaction with New Relic
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.
Pros
- JVM statistics
- URL response times
- DB SQL execution times
- Server CPU & memory
Cons
- Additional DB metrics
- Log tracking with text search functionality
- More tracing samples on requests
- ROI is good as we have 20+ applications using New Relic
- Single sign on is easy to implement and makes it very easy to login
- It accelerates our testing processes
It has helped us to achieve our monitoring targets for various performance testing activities, the easy-to-use interface makes it easy to navigate different pages and dashboards. Overall, it has accelerated our testing processes and made it easier to see results.

- Splunk Application Performance Monitoring (APM), AppDynamics and Dynatrace
New Relic is easier to login and use as it's user friendly, its full-stack capacity lets us to monitor the whole system across all the tiers. However compared to Dynatrace its deep-dive analysis capacity needs to be improved, compared to Splunk its log analysis and reporting capacity needs to be improved.
