licensing cost is a little high. Prediction, trends, etc can be improved. A little easy UI will help a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are several modules composing NewRelic (Browser, Synthetics, Servers, Mobile, etc) but what I mainly use is server monitoring and the profiling tool, which gives valuable insights into the errors and bottlenecks of the code. We use it with Ruby on Rails app, and it works great.
Slack integration (especially for monitoring) and easy installation (we use Ubuntu servers) are a defined plus as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't quite like the pricing model, as it is per server. Running several apps on distributed, scaling servers this makes it way too expensive than it should reasonably be. For this reason we can't use NewRelic on those specific projects.
The learning scale is a tad steep, but that's to be expected for such a powerful product, so no complaints there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to setup and use
Extensive analysis tools, from server performance, transaction performance down to SQL queries. The browser support can be revealing as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The fancy javascript UI doesn't support sharing a screen by pasting a URL - it loses the timeframe you were looking at. There is a workaround - a button on the bottom of the screen - but it took a support call to find it. Often, our team resorts sharing screenshots instead.
The UI, while beautiful and powerful, is also confusing to the point where they recommend training courses.
It's outrageously expensive - I once calculated that it would cost about 25% of my EC2 costs if I deployed it on every server.

Tight Rails integration makes for solid insight and easy setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Per-server pricing for similar servers makes cost scale disproportionately to value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
New Relic is not only an application performance monitoring tool, but also allows you to monitor your website from multiple different geographical locations. This latest feature is extremely handy, when you offer SaaS solutions to your clients, where the client can be at any part of the world - in such a case this feature - monitoring your site from different continents, from different countries - really can help you to once to act pro-actively and know before anyone else if there is a connectivity issue from region X towards your solution and secondly, the ability to check historical data also helps identifying, if the problem is region dependent or related your own platform.
So main features for us:
- Monitoring from multiple different geographical locations
- Alerting (when you get alerts not only from outages but also from state recoveries)
- Historical data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to mention here - the application does what it supposed to do, if you would like to have a full environment monitoring and alerting coverage then this tool alone will not do the trick, but they also do not position themselves there: but in combination with other monitoring tools you can get a really excellent stack.

New Relic application monitoring provides various statistical data and the way it show on dashboard the performance metrics of the applications running. It is also integrated with Pivotal Cloud Foundry so you can also look at one of the cloud solutions where in you would be able to monitor application performance easily.

So far its good enough so no dislikes. But as I go far I may get some glitches and potential points for improvement which I can suggest Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NewRelic has a lot of parts to the service (Application monitoring, Mobile, Browser stats, Insights, etc), but Insights is the one that I use every day--and it doesn't seem to have a competitor. The near-realtime (less than a minute) charts, graphs, comparison tables and custom queries on software activity is not only visually stunning but also easy to use. Using Insights queries, I've been able to find and fix issues with production web software before customers even notice the problem exists. By watching trends and error reports, I can keep ahead of issues (both bugs, service issues and scaling needs) before they become problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are a few things I would love to see in the Insights panel. I make heavy use of saved custom Dashboards and often find myself building a complex dashboard that I need to duplicate for another environment (having the environment for PROD, now I need a copy of the same thing where the only difference in all the queries is the appName). This doesn't seem to be available so I spend a fair amount of time copy/pasting queries and editing the appName query to create additional dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I 've been using newrelic for more than 8 years, it was always very reliable and giving me detailed analytics data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its produce line is growing more and more, i personally think maybe it is time for them to split their products and re-build their UX Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
