APM is a powerful, intuitive analytics tool
What do you like best about the product?
APM has been an invaluable tool for monitoring and managing multiple applications running on the same server. Detailed stack traces allow you to quickly identify and fix the offending resources before customers are impacted.
This suite enables real-time performance monitoring at a glance.

What do you dislike about the product?
On the essentials tier, insights events and metric data retention is only for 72 hours. This isn't usually much of an issue, as any catastrophic service interruption is going to get noticed before 3 days are up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My use case was using this on a beefy VPS running a fair number of separate Wordpress instances.
Real, actionable insights into our applications' and server's status allowed us to identify bottlenecks and optimize our server configuration to eliminate slow response times and increase server throughput.

DO IT!
This product is an incredible value for the amount of actionable insights you get for a relatively small cost. If you or your organization are looking for a low cost way to improve quality of service, you could do far worse then choosing New Relic.

NewRelic is essential for APM
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to see traces of an extremely slow transaction and examine the database queries that ran for that instance. Comparing the CPU, memory, and throughout of all servers for an application.
What do you dislike about the product?
Older data loses precision, but it does show the general data that you are looking for. The general interface can be a bit slow or clunky and take some time to switch time frame or transaction. I would have liked to see historical performance easier to manage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
NewRelic APM allows us to monitor customer experience based on the performance of our servers. Performance changes correlated with our releases allows us to a have clear idea of what improved/worsened the system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The price justifies the benefits you receive in monitoring your application as it grows.
Always on, consistently easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
As our infrastructure has grown, the level of complexity has grown as well. NewRelic has been a constant for monitoring across all of our services. It is just as simple to get an at-a-glance view of infrastructure health as it was in the beginning.

There is nothing that I dislike about the platform.

Their built in Ruby on Rails gem. It just works as soon as you add the gem.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their pricing schema. It doesnt make sense charging by hosts if your setup is elastic on cloud
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Application monitoring, server monitoring, database monitoring and performance monitoring/comparison.
Its a must, for now the healt of your project
What do you like best about the product?
What I like the best it's that it really helps tracking events on the apps, the integration with other services like heroku
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface it's not the best its very chunky, we also use other options like airbrake and its lighter than new relic
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I really like the integration with heroku it has been very handy, it has helped a lot on finding problems and I really like the information that it's given we use it all the time with heroku but the new implemention of heroku has been great and we are analazing if we should continue using new relic
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great for tracking events in your apps, it's one of the best tools in the market
New Relic has been crucial for our infrastructure
What do you like best about the product?
New Relic has been a great monitoring tool for our infrastructure allowing us to send out automated alerts for CPU usage, Disk capacity and downtime. It's really simple to get going by installing an agent on each host with your API key and literally only takes minutes to get up and running. The alerting is very robust and customizable, and integrates well with all modern forms of alerts, whether that be SMS, email, and web hook integrations with collaboration clients like Slack.
What do you dislike about the product?
The paid services can quickly get expensive if you have a lot of infrastructure to monitor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
New Relic has helped us solve the problem of monitoring our infrastructure and alerting us when there are problems. Instead of hearing from other employees or end-users we are able to find out the status of infrastructure before that happens.
