We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"AppPulse Active allows us to very quickly produce synthetic monitoring for our applications.""The thing that I like about AppPulse is that it's easy application to install and an easy application to use to provide information for our customers.""The application is easy to use, as it is friendly and graphic.""It provides a lot of customer insight, understanding the customer's needs, understanding the customer's issues, and it gives me a more proactive approach to solving a customer problem before it happens.""It identifies transactions and flows of the operations that our customers use with our mobile application.""We can collect data about the user experience and see how the user is behaving with the app, or check the behavior of the app itself.""Customer are able to develop more quickly versions in which users can see the application to correct and monetize it.""With Google Analytics, you choose what performance metrics you want to have reported, but with AppPulse Mobile, you have a global vision of what is really happening inside your app."

More AppPulse Suite [EOL] Pros →

"It has the ability to monitor random URLs not tied to the one pinger per application (though it costs extra).""We are able to drill down and see what is going on in the system.""There are many valuable features in New Relic APM. We developed some software applications and we are able to monitor the errors very easily. Their log security retention is very good.""As soon as it monitors all our systems and is integrated with PagerDuty, the operations team just needs to wait for alerts on their cellphones to fix things.""You don't have to go through a list of 500 servers.""The most valuable feature is application monitoring.""The most valuable feature is the ability to manage the application flow.""Support for plug-ins (RMQ, Redis etc.) is a valuable feature."

Cons
"I think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization.""Currently, the information for management teams and technical teams are in the same view, but it would be useful if we could separate these views.""The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime.""It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile.""It could be better if you had any of the reports that the customers asked from us, for example, punctually. Unfortunately, the reporter is not that practical.""I would love if AppPulse delivered more details about my users, for example, age and sex. It could split up the users into categories based on how frequently they use my product.""The ability to get CI information from AppPulse into OMi.""The regulations should be better customized for the kind of data that we cannot send to the SALs environment."

"There are times when you restart the engines and the servers have a unique ID for the host and you need to remove the server. It is difficult because some are on-premise and others are production hosts. Having downtime is not very good when updating. However, it is not a constant issue.""It gives you amazing statistics, but doesn’t give you enough information about what to do with the statistics.""The solution needs to have staging.""We would like a dashboard feature to be created for this product. This would allow us to monitor both the front and back-end of our UIs performance, and then report on it.""One thing I'd like to see in any APM, especially New Relic, is the ability to use distributed transactions. When one microservice calls another, it calls another database and microservice. The entire data visualization layer will not be able to correlate from one microservice from end to end and return on that path. Distributed transactions would be a great addition that would make life simpler. Unfortunately, no APM has that end-to-end capability.""The solution should include more detailed reports for SQL database requests.""It is a serious tool and requires a lot of time invested in order to understand how it works.""The older view is much better than the new view that they have. We'd like to go back to that previous version. The user interface just isn't as nice as it used to be."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It was a no-brainer from a cost perspective compared to the other tools that we buy as an IT organization."
  • More AppPulse Suite [EOL] Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "New Relic is either free with low retention and minimal functionalities, or expensive with full options and retention."
  • "The monthly cost os $1000 per server per month, but it could be even more. We pay about $250 for the server, and then New Relic wants over $1000 to give us statistics on those servers."
  • "Cost is significant with a lot of extras."
  • "It would be nice if we could buy it annually instead of monthly."
  • "If it’s the right tool, it doesn’t matter what it costs because you’re going to get it back many-fold from your productivity."
  • "I recommend using the free version of New Relic. If you like the free version and understand its importance for your company, you can move to the trial. Then, you can migrate to the paid version."
  • "There is a picture which goes to your browser and it monitors requests from other users. However, it's impossible to use now because the price is very high. The feature is very nice, but I tried it during the trial period, and the current price makes it impossible to use."
  • "They gave us aggressive discounts when they were brought in for the first time, but they have also kept them for the year-on-year renewals, which has been absolutely fine."
