New Relic Likes & Dislikes

Like

I really like the UI and what is provided out of the box. The one thing I would like more of is automated alerts for key AWS resources.

Like

Very in depth metrics. Clean user interface. Fast to query data at most times.

Like

Breadth of services all tied to relatively easy pricing models. The AI features are quite nice and its great to be able to just ask whats on fire to see services that are red or having issues quickly. Its also been helpful in troubleshooting production issues.

Dislike

I wish there were automated alerts for key AWS services that could just be tweaked to fit our use cases. Alerting is very complicated and easy to get wrong so this would really help with getting off the ground.

Dislike

Overall very expensive, could be more UI friendly, some downtime in the past.

Dislike

Better Finops FOCUS support and transparency into individual service consumption that leverage new relic for bill back purposes are limited.

    Jul 7, 2025
    The customer support provided by Customer Support especially the team have been above and beyond. They catch up with us weekly especially during the early stages of the transition from our previous monitoring system to New Relic. New Relic has been fantastic. The New Relic monitoring system itself is very efficient with a lot to offer.
