We performed a comparison between New Relic and Quest Foglight for APM [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dynatrace, New Relic, AppDynamics and others in Mobile APM."It is easier to create new dashboards in the New Relic interface, and it is also easier to query if when I want to monitor a different parameter or time duration on my dashboard."
"It has helped us maintain a much higher uptime than we had previously."
"The most valuable features of New Relic are the reports and ease of use."
"The alert mechanism is quite accurate when something goes wrong in your system. For example, if you have hundreds of APIs on your server, and any of the APIs is not performing well, you get an alert. When there is a drop or change in the threshold value, the beauty of New Relic is that within a fraction of seconds, all the stakeholders who are configured in the New Relic system will get an alert. That's one good thing."
"The versatility of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The solution is good for sending alerts, drawing graphs about system usage, and creating plug-ins."
"We use it for monitoring, identifying when services go down, or when they are outside of what we would consider normal operations."
"Support for plug-ins (RMQ, Redis etc.) is a valuable feature."
"Intuitive, Single-pane-of-glass dashboards for real-time statistics and long-term statistics for capacity management and in-depth analytics"
"At a glance I can easily see what is going on with all of my VMware environments, including top consumers of resources."
"Dell Foglight does analyze and optimize your virtual infrastructure. It definitely reduces operational cost."
"The most valuable feature is drill-down monitoring, which shows us from one interface the transaction chain from the front end to back end."
"Capacity on database and file servers. I found the algorithms to forecast growth and concerns particularly intuitive."
"It provides a history of the activities on our SQL servers."
"Having standard monitoring features and a central repository saves us a lot of time and reduces risk of incidents."
"With the APM you can replay the end user session and see issues quickly by viewing the session."
"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."
"We would like to receive more AWS-specific details from the New Relic Dashboard, like EC2 health."
"The solution does not provide input on how the page performs in a big group. It just says that the page performance is bad, but it does not say what can be done to improve it. If they could provide some insight or guidance on how to make improvements, that would be a big help."
"The solution should include more detailed reports for SQL database requests."
"The solution only supports the cloud platform and not on-premises."
"The solution must provide better support for Azure Web Apps service."
"In the next release, I'd like to see a better pricing structure."
"New Relic needs to improve is the user data schema."
"They need to improve the stability of FxM and FxV."
"I want to see a new interface that contains HTML5 features. The current version of Foglight (on-premise edition) is so fusty in comparison with leaders of Gartner APM Quadrant - i.e. Appdynamics, NewRelic, Dynatrace."
"We are running a Webmethods stack (Software AG) and Foglight is unable to instrument. We are in a POC with Dynatrace and it was able to instrument with little effort."
"I think installation and setup needs little more improvement especially when you are installing with external database."
"I would perhaps like to see more SSMS connections."
"Being able to incorporate other bespoke monitoring into Foglight would have made the tool even more useful."
"There are some metrics I'd like to track that are difficult to find or implement into a tracking solution without a lot of manual work."
"I want to see mobile access application in the next release."
