We performed a comparison between ExtraHop Reveal(x) for IT Operations and New Relic based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The most valuable features are security detections, perimeter detection, dashboards, and alerts."
"Wire data analytics."
"The most valuable feature is the way it handles data, from Layer 2 up to Layer 7. We can see everything that happens in the network."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."
"This solution is more applications reference architecture focused. Its benefit is that it specializes in that space."
"We use it for monitoring, identifying when services go down, or when they are outside of what we would consider normal operations."
"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."
"Their technical support is pretty good and responsive. We have a real good relationship with them."
"The solution is scalable, and it is easy because all the documentation is available."
"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."
"It is a software solution as a service, so I don't have to manage it on-premise."
"We appreciate the way that this solution allows us to monitor the ongoing status of the UI at any given time."
"The most valuable feature is the New Relic APM module to deep-dive into the application, to get bottlenecks to the surface, and to improve application performance. Also, the New Relic Insights module creates a real-time dashboard on application performance to create awareness for the DevOps team."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"We'd like to see a local presence within the region in order to have seamless service whether it's the support, the implementation, or professional services."
"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"This solution would be improved if it had the ability to retain data longer."
"They either have to go broad or decide what their bread and butter is and get really good at that."
"I would like an infrastructure network that provides real-time views, showing the issues."
"New Relic is very slow, and the app is a bit frustrating to use, which is something that has been happening a lot in the past year. During the last six months, I have noticed that it has become extremely laggy."
"They don't have an opportunity to share the dashboard with the public. If you want to share it with stakeholders or people outside the organization who just want to have a look at a couple of metrics, you can't do that without onboarding them to the product itself."
"The customization of the start and end time is kind of cool."
"I would like to see the company implement the AI auto-baseline feature which Dynatrace has."
"It would be nice if there were pre-made dashboards."
"New Relic does enable frontend performance monitoring by default. However, when we are troubleshooting the issue, New Relic is not able to trace back to the service where the issue is. Other solutions, such as Dynatrace are better."
"Data Dog captures the entire session and then provides it as a video player path, which gives more insight into what the user was doing. It's pretty impressive. New Relic does that, yet it only captures using a couple of screenshots, which is not very detailed since you are unable to see the entire user flow."
