Networking Head at Birla Corporation Ltd
Good statistical reporting, provides alerts via email, helpful support
The reporting capabilities are good. We have to manually configure reports based on what data we require. For example, it can show the downtime for uptime for a device. Once we configure the profile for each report, we can download it. We use Infraon to automatically trigger processes to help resolve issues when they are detected. For example, it will automatically raise a ticket and send an email to our ISP when it detects that a link is down. When a process is triggered automatically, we run one of the pre-configured scripts. We have not created any of the scripts ourselves but rather, only use the ones that are provided. These scripts are important because we use them for generating reports and emailing alerts, which are also used for auditing purposes. For example, our IT department has been improved because Infraon automatically creates reports that show our site uptime and downtime. We can see which site has more bandwidth utilization, link utilization, and link problems. It will show us what other devices are in the environment, which ones we need to replace, and how many sessions are being created. This solution assists us with our billing because we have many critical locations, and these need to have one hundred percent uptime, every month of the year. We generate reports monthly, quarterly, and yearly, which we then submit to management to cite the total uptime. Based on this, the billing is done. With respect to the learning curve, this tool is easy to learn because there is a lot of training material included. I suggest that the entire team learn to use it, rather than just one person, because it will make the tool more effective for the organization.

Real-time alerts have reduced server outage impact and support fast incident response
In the dashboard, if they could show a little more metrics regarding the application and related things, that would be how New Relic could be improved. Currently, there are things showing from the server level and application level, but it can be improved. That is what I felt. Regarding user interface, I do not feel much concern, but for some kind of issues when we are trying to get support from the New Relic team, their SLA seems to be long. They are taking seven to ten working days for resolving some kind of scenario or issue. That is a bit difficult for us. If they could improve the customer support by reducing their SLA within three to five days, if they could remediate everything, that will be so much helpful. When it comes to the customer support part, I felt they need to be a little more improved on that part. The support overall is good, but they can improve. That is the reason I have given it eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have definitely seen ROI since we first implemented Infraon, three years ago, as it has given us clarity and helped us with compliance during audits."
"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product."
"Being an engineering product, the customization is easy for us compared to SolarWinds and ManageEngine."
"The role-based dashboards provide data points and charts and topology diagrams in a single window. It's like a spider web, where the application, connectivity, and everything is defined for each user of those applications."
"Their discovery is very quick and they have a CSV file upload mechanism that allows you to onboard five thousand devices a day."
"The most valuable feature is alerting. We get email alerts when a link is down that tell us which device is having a problem."
"It is a stable product; after the initial configuration, you don't have to tweak it much, and all systems of Everest IMS work perfectly."
"Overall, it's a wonderful one-stop ITSM solution for infrastructure."
"It’s been helpful to get a unified understanding of how our application is being used, usage patterns, etc. We get a shared organizational understanding."
"New Relic has been in the business for a while, it offers a wide selection to attach a monitoring mobile app, server, and cloud, and if you want to go with just one product, it fits all your needs."
"Saves so much time in debugging our code and environments."
"This is the best tool for gaining insight into SaaS or cloud-based applications that we’ve seen."
"If someone reports an issue we’ll always go to New Relic first; that’s where it becomes a good product in and of itself."
"New features are added often."
"There are many things, but in particular I like the real-time monitoring; we get to know when a specific service or specific URL is failing and not performing, and we can set certain delivery thresholds which, if broken, we hear about immediately."
"The deep insights, which will give you the metrics (not a high level), so we can build out at the database level where the bottleneck is. This has been pretty helpful."
 

Cons

"This solution is available in SaaS. The reason why we have not gone to SaaS is they do not have a country-specific separation of assets."
"I would like to see an integrated view of Infraon IMS and Infraon Desk. It would be very helpful if that were integrated into the solution."
"Technical support could use some improvement in terms of their response times and diagnostic accuracy."
"There might be some features in other products that are currently not there in Everest IMS and can be included. I have not yet compared it with any other product."
"The GUI is in need of improvement. It is not drag-and-drop or easy to use."
"The graphical view of the topology does not show us all of the connectivity in our network, which is something that could be improved."
"I would like to have the option to add a new device or meet with the next release. Right now, it needs to be done from the backend which results in a heavy reliance on R&D."
"We have enquired if there are any possibilities of monitoring non-IPBS devices."
"I find New Relic to be somewhat expensive."
"New Relic APM could improve error debugging and the correlation with the logs. We are receiving some alerts or alarms but we need to correlate with the error log, but it is difficult if it is more than seven months retention period, it is hard to trace. We need this especially for getting historical information."
"Alerts tend to show how an entire cluster is performing, and not only that a given node is having an issue."
"The solution only supports the cloud platform and not on-premises."
"It would help customers if there were an on-premises version available."
"Email alert customization is limited; it cannot be tailored much, which makes the system more rigid than optimal."
"The docs in API and dashboards seem to be a little behind and overly verbose, I don’t want to have to jump back and forth."
"Stack traces don’t go far enough. They get to a point, indicate a question mark, and then stop."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay for a number of devices on the accounts and since it is on-premises, we pay the maintenance charges for the year."
"The pricing is reasonable, given the features that they provide."
"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product. We evaluated five to six products and finally felt Infraon was better because of the pricing model, especially because it was more flexible."
"The cost model is within our budget. I have less than 180 critical assets, but the moment that I have 1,000 assets, then the license model is totally different. I don't know whether they are capable of handling that kind of a load. They could revisit the licensing model."
"I think that the pricing for this solution is reasonable and varies by number of devices."
"Licensing is calculated on a per-user basis."
"This solution required a license and it is better than some other competitors."
"We spend somewhere around $5,000 to $6,000 per month with an annual recommitment of maybe $60,000. These are just ballpark figures."
"We're paying for the New Relic APM license annually."
"The price of New Relic APM could be less expensive. We are using the New Relic APM pro account and it is more costly. When compared to competitors the solution's pricing should be much more realistic."
"I think it's overpriced for the technical support that we get. We spent over 1,00,000 USD a year."
"The monthly cost os $1000 per server per month, but it could be even more. We pay about $250 for the server, and then New Relic wants over $1000 to give us statistics on those servers."
"The price of the solution could be less expensive. You have to pay a lot for each user. There is an additional cost for extra features."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one means cheap, and ten means very expensive."
