"Clear, Fast Application Performance Visibility with New Relic"
4/5
What do you like best about New Relic?

What I like most about New Relic is how quickly it gives clear visibility into application performance. I’ve used it to monitor Node.js and Python services, and integrating the APM agent was pretty straightforward both in regular deployments and containerized environments. The transaction traces and error insights make it easy to spot slow endpoints or bottlenecks. I also like the dashboards and alerts, which help keep track of application health without much effort. Overall, it makes debugging and performance monitoring much easier for engineering teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about New Relic?

One area that could be improved is the pricing model, especially as telemetry and log ingestion grow. In larger environments it can become difficult to predict costs. The UI is also very feature-rich, which is great, but it can take some time for new users to navigate and find the right views or queries. Some simpler onboarding guides or curated dashboards for common use cases would make it easier for teams getting started with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Observability Tool That Boosts Reliability and Speeds Troubleshooting"
4.5/5
What do you like best about New Relic?

What I like most about New Relic is how it brings everything I need into one place. Instead of jumping between separate tools for logs, metrics, traces, and performance data, New Relic gives me a single dashboard that shows the full picture.It’s clean, intuitive, and the visualisations are easy to understand Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about New Relic?

While I really like New Relic, there are a few things that can be frustrating at times. First, it can get expensive, especially as you scale up and start monitoring more hosts, containers, or services. The pricing model isn’t always predictable, and sometimes small changes in usage can lead to higher bills than expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive Observability and Real-Time Insights Made Easy"
4.5/5
What do you like best about New Relic?

New Relic stands out for its comprehensive observability capabilities and intuitive user interface. The platform provides deep insights into application performance, infrastructure health, and user experience, all in one place. I particularly appreciate its real-time monitoring and alerting, which helps teams detect and resolve issues before they impact end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about New Relic?

While New Relic offers powerful observability features, there are a few areas that could be improved. The pricing model can become expensive for organizations with high data volumes or multiple users, as costs scale quickly with ingestion and retention. Additionally, data retention beyond the default period often incurs extra charges, which can be limiting for teams that need long-term historical analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Monitoring and Insights for Modern Applications"
4.5/5
What do you like best about New Relic?

New Relic stands out for its ease of use and intuitive dashboards, which make monitoring and troubleshooting straightforward even for complex applications. The ease of implementation is impressive—integrating it into our tech stack was smooth, with clear documentation and quick setup. I also appreciate the wide range of features, from real-time performance monitoring to log management and distributed tracing, all in one platform.

The ease of integration with popular frameworks and cloud services saves a lot of time, and the customer support is responsive and knowledgeable whenever we need assistance. We use New Relic daily for application health checks, performance optimization, and alerting, and it has become an essential part of our workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about New Relic?

The pricing model can be a bit complex, especially when scaling across multiple environments. Also, the UI, while feature-rich, can feel overwhelming for new users because of the sheer number of options and data points available. Some advanced features require additional configuration, which can take time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"New Relic: Unmatched Observability for Faster Fixes, but Prepare for a Feature Heavy Interface"
4.5/5
What do you like best about New Relic?

As a user, what I value most is having a comprehensive, unified view of our entire technology stack on a single platform. The NRQL query language stands out as exceptional, enabling us to pose detailed questions about all our application, log, and infrastructure data in one place. This capability has significantly reduced the time it takes to troubleshoot issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about New Relic?

The main challenge I face is the steep learning curve caused by the overwhelming number of features. For new team members, the interface often appears cluttered and can be difficult to navigate, which makes it hard to quickly locate the specific metrics or logs needed for troubleshooting. This complexity tends to slow down the onboarding process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Performance Insights and Debugging"
5/5
What do you like best about New Relic?

What I like best about New Relic is how quickly it helps me understand what’s going wrong in our application. The dashboards are clean, and I can get to the important metrics—like response time, error rates, and slow transactions—without digging around too much. The real-time insights are extremely helpful, especially when we’re troubleshooting production issues. It saves a lot of time and gives a clear picture of system health almost instantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about New Relic?

One thing I dislike about New Relic is that some of the advanced features feel a bit overwhelming at first. The platform is powerful, but certain sections are not very intuitive, and it takes time to figure out where everything is. The UI can feel cluttered when you're trying to drill down into detailed traces or custom dashboards. Also, some features require extra configuration, which isn’t always obvious from the start.

"Instant Performance Insights and Proactive Issue Detection"
5/5
What do you like best about New Relic?

This tool provides immediate visibility into application performance, allowing issues to be detected before users even notice them. It helps reduce mean time to resolution and makes it simple to incorporate business-specific KPIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about New Relic?

The cost can increase rapidly as your data volume grows, and it's easy to accidentally generate a large amount of data without being aware of the financial impact. With so many features and options available in one place, new users might find it confusing at first. Additionally, the mobile app does not offer all the features found on the web version.
