What differentiates New Relic from other similar products?
New Relic monitors the underlying infrastructure that supports my apps, including servers, containers, and cloud services. It enables proactive management and troubleshooting by providing real-time visibility into resource consumption, network performance, and capacity planning. New Relic interfaces with a diverse set of technologies and platforms, including a variety of programming languages, cloud services, databases, and others. This enables organizations to gain complete insights across their whole technological stack.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
One of my favorite aspects of New Relic is its broad and user-friendly observability platform. Because of its scalability, New Relic is appropriate for both small businesses and large enterprises. The platform is user-friendly, with straightforward dashboards and visualizations that help teams evaluate and understand complicated performance data.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There’s nothing I don’t like about it at this point. It delivers too much_ information for what I require, and I wish I could customize the reports to be more brief.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
New Relic is a must-have infrastructure monitoring platform that provides enterprises with an unprecedented amount of insight. Users can dive deep into their infrastructure and apps using New Relic, obtaining useful insights and fine-grained management. The platform’s free tier is astonishingly generous, granting access to important features without sacrificing functionality. The graphical user interface (GUI) is clear and intuitive, yet the amount of information given can be overwhelming (it took me a while to grasp it). However, once users become acquainted with the interface, they may effectively use its potential to optimize performance.

- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing

What differentiates New Relic from other similar products?
New Relic stands out with its user friendly interface and all in one platform for monitoring everything from applications to infrastructure. Unlike other tools, it offers real time insights with minimal setup and integrates easily with a wide range of technologies. It also has a strong focus on customizable dashboards, making it easy for teams to track the metrics that matter most to them.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite part of New Relic is its customizable dashboards. You can set them up to focus on the metrics that matter most to your team, which makes monitoring and troubleshooting much easier. It is super flexible and saves time by showing you exactly what you need in one place.
What do you dislike most about this product?
What I dislike most about New Relic is that some of its more advanced features can feel a bit overwhelming, especially if you are new to monitoring tools. It can take some time to fully grasp how everything works and to set things up the way you want. The learning curve can be steep, but it gets easier once you get the hang of it.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I would recommend taking the time to explore the basics first and slowly work your way up to the more advanced features. Do not rush the setup, get familiar with how it works and customize the dashboards to match your needs. And definitely take advantage of their tutorials and support if you need help along the way. It is a powerful tool, but the more you put into learning it the more you better you can manage it

- Helps Innovate
- Performance Enhancing
- Unique Features
