Trevor Watkins - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides firmware compliance and the ability to connect to iPO
I've been involved in various upgrades. It's pretty easy to set up with vCenter. We just push out an appliance template in vCenter. We run ours on virtual servers. Deployment can be done by just one person. The number of people needed for maintenance will depend on your server inventory. If you have more than 100 servers, you will need three to five people. If you have 500 to 1,000 servers, you will need a team of 10 to 20 people.
Iqbal Khowaja - PeerSpot reviewer
Has a simple user interface and end-to-end monitoring and self-healing features
My organization uses many application performance management solutions, such as AppDynamics, New Relic APM, Splunk, and Datadog. I'm the CTO for the state of Hawaii, and across the board, different departments use different APM tools. I'm using the latest version of New Relic APM, but I cannot recall the exact version. My company has a dozen engineers using and monitoring New Relic APM. I'd tell anyone planning to use New Relic APM that it has to fit what you have. For example, most of my company's payload is in AWS, and the tool has adopters and features that CloudWatch cannot provide. Still, New Relic APM can, so you should do a demo or trial run first and see if it's a tool that'll help you with end-to-end monitoring. New Relic APM is working well for my company, so an excellent way to start is to do a trial run to see how the tool works out for your current applications. My rating for the tool is nine out of ten because my experience with it has been great. New Relic also worked closely with my company and has always been upfront on what's available and what's not. My company is a New Relic APM customer.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We can add VLAN and update it."
"We also have the 3PAR and the GUI is almost the same. So the recognition is very good."
"It gives us a view of all our servers, which we did not have before in real-time."
"Administration-wise it's going to be easier. More smooth and more flexible."
"The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware."
"We get templates, so it's speed to delivery for us. It's a big difference with the template features."
"It's rather simple to use, and that's very important for us."
"The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."
"They instrument up from the bottom to the top – every piece of code - they have a very perfect read of what’s being done, and how long it’s taking."
"The most valuable features of New Relic are the reports and ease of use."
"The product allows the developer to see the actual problems in the applications."
"What I like best about New Relic APM is its user interface because it's simple. The most valuable feature of New Relic APM is end-to-end monitoring."
"The most important thing is that it tells us where the latency in throughput and response time are."
"The monitoring so far has been good and we are happy with it."
"One of the most outstanding features of any APM tool is the anomaly detection part."
"Working with the solution is very easy. It's user-friendly."
 

Cons

"The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement."
"The logs are not proper."
"The interface is a bit bland. It does its job, but it could have a better interface."
"Does not allow for switch configuration other than through OneView."
"​We have a version 3 and a version 1.2, but the upgrade process from the 1.2 to the 3 is kind of an issue."
"We've had a few issues. We just upgraded to the 3.9.0 version. We think that now that we are on that version, hopefully a lot of those things are going to go away for us."
"One thing which is missing is that you can't actually log a support call yourself."
"I had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine."
"Real-user monitoring would be helpful as it would help me to really understand the client-side performance of the application."
"The solution must provide better support for Azure Web Apps service."
"The price needs improvement."
"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."
"The scalability can be improved."
"The solution should include more detailed reports for SQL database requests."
"There are certain features that are not supported in New Relic, such as CATSEARCH, which allows you to do a full-text search."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."
"​I am happy with the price."
"This license cost for OneView was $3,000 USD."
"I would rate the cost as six out of ten."
"The solution is free to use, but if you want the management aspect you require a virtual machine such as C7000 or Synergy which require licenses."
"When it comes to the government, money is never an issue, so it was excellent in terms of the HPE OneView licensing cost. Hitachi was cheaper, but I'd rate HPE OneView cost-wise as eight out of ten."
"HPE had some other solutions, but they were actually quite expensive to buy. So, when OneView came along, it was kind of reasonable in terms of price for licenses, etc."
"Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
"I think the pricing is reasonable."
"This is an expensive product."
"The pricing and licensing are too high."
"The solution is quite expensive. It costs around $5,000 a month. There aren't any additional costs above that."
"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."
"The pricing model is a little confusing for beginners. They find it a little expensive, and if you are using it already, then that is not good."
"This is an expensive tool."
"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."
