We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The application is easy to use, as it is friendly and graphic.""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.""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.""It identifies transactions and flows of the operations that our customers use with our mobile application.""The speed that you can get AppPulse out there was the brightest spot of this whole process.""AppPulse Active allows us to very quickly produce synthetic monitoring for our applications.""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.""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."

"We like the performance of the product.""The solution offers good documentation.""You don't have to go through a list of 500 servers.""One valuable feature is that the synthetic alert stays open until the issue is resolved. You can actually monitor whether your system is back up.""Server uptime is its most valuable feature.""The simplicity of the dashboard is very good.""Every time there is a crisis, high traffic, or if we see a problem with a server, we go to New Relic and monitor it to determine the cause.""The feature I found most valuable is being able to design my queries. It's easy to design a query."

Cons
"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 regulations should be better customized for the kind of data that we cannot send to the SALs environment.""The one that sticks out in my mind is some flexibility to do recurring downtime.""The ability to get CI information from AppPulse into OMi.""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 think they can improve the feature that identifies the operating systems, the brand of the devices, the response time, geolocalization.""It needs compatibility for Windows Mobile, because I think AppPulse doesn't have Windows Mobile.""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."

More AppPulse Suite [EOL] Cons →

"The price needs improvement.""We have had issues with our agents going offline.""There were some settings we had issues with.""Compared to their competitors, they are missing some features at the moment.""Documentation could be improved in New Relic APM, so users would have more clarity on configuring the dashboard. If New Relic gave better guidelines, users would find it easier to understand the metrics and features of New Relic APM. Another area for improvement is integration with Kubernetes. Currently, the process isn't user-friendly. It's challenging and lacks documentation for users to understand how to integrate New Relic APM with Kubernetes quickly. With multiple levels of Kubernetes dockers and other DBs on different clouds, it's tricky to gather all into New Relic APM on a single dashboard. What I'd like to see in the next version of New Relic APM is a single dashboard where you can easily view which applications fall under specific APMs. If there's a search feature where you can type in a keyword to find out if an APM is related to a particular application, that would be great.""The APIs could be better. I would also like more APIs and features to integrate with streaming solutions, like Kinesis or Kafka.""It is complicated, especially in how you interpret the data that it provides. If it had a bit more canned, out-of-the-box features, especially some of the reporting features, that would be more useful.""It gives you amazing statistics, but doesn’t give you enough information about what to do with the statistics."

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."
