ManageEngine Applications Manager vs. New Relic

It has strength in collecting information through SSH, WMI, Telnet, SNMP, http, https, MSSQL ports (several types of DB postgresql, db2, SAP MaxDB, HANA which we must monitor).The information it extracts is very useful to us since each type of monitor gives us visibility of what happens internally in them.The truth is that the needs that we have had during these years, ManageEngine Application Manager has been able to cover them especially with business core (ERP) with monitoring of SAP Server and SAP CCMS.

I have used New Relic in different scenarios like monitoring my production infrastructure and applications which helps us to reduce the downtime of my applications and websites and also I have used the synthetic monitoring feature which helps to proactively monitor our websites availability. Along with this I have also used New Relic for cloud resources cost monitoring which helps to reduce my cloud cost. Also I have used mobile application monitoring which helps me to trace the sessions easily and I can easily reduce my RCA through the help of that.

• Intuitive ease of the administration interface
• Improvements and security fixes that are quickly integrated with frequent updates
• Visibility into the status of our services and the end user experience (End to End)
• Reports associated with attributes of services, applications or containers that help us detect certain flaws in our services.

• New Relic APM allows us to follow up transactions across services and trace performance bottlenecks in real-time, crucial when monitoring the processing of energy loads or predictive maintenance algorithms.
• It gives us deep visibility into our cloud servers, containers and IOT gateways, so we can catch CPU spikes or memory leaks which can impact the data we ingest from the field devices.
• We develop custom dashboards for monitoring trends of power consumption, abnormality in sensors and API health. In conjunction with alerting, it makes sure we are fixing issues before customers even see them.

• Plugin Quirks where it times out
• Navigation through some of the screen seems a bit confusing
• Consistency such as where license info is location between op and app manager are in different places. Better if it were consistent
• Maintenance schedules in different locations in both Op and App manger product, needs consistency. They are all Zoho products!!

Incentivized

• Support for SQL like query with more functional features of analysis while viewing distributed tracing.
• support for very low level specific integration from APIs to classes to functions to piece of code
• More detailed documentation, as we faced issues while integrating for the first time.

For the the trust, security and support that ManageEngine Application Manager has given us, for 12 years as clients, has made us very satisfied and grateful for the response times to resolve doubts or needs that we have had.

The only issue that we have had with New Relic is that the price might be a little expensive for smaller companies. The amount of data you store in New Relic impacts the cost, and can get away from you if you don't work closely with the vendor. Overall though the application is top notch.

The intuitive ease of the administration interface, the new features, improvements and security fixes that are quickly integrated with frequent updates. Tuning or more detailed reports associated with attributes of services, applications or containers that help us detect certain flaws in our services. The capacity for improvements that are implemented and the ease of integrating new monitors into the product, which we need, gives us the speed and ease of preventing interruptions or events that helps us avoid.

New Relic helps in observability setup for the critical environments and getting known about the issues and troubleshoot the applications and services. Alerts helps in knowing the abnormal state of the system and services, Dashboards are used for visualizing the key metrics and muting the unwanted notifications and dropping the extra data from the source.

The support team has been really helpful and resolved most of the issues on time. However, for a couple of issues, several follow-ups were needed to elicit a reasonable response. The issue was deeply technical and could have been investigated only by their Architects, and bringing them into the ticket took longer than needed

It's better to start by implementing New Relic in one project and test everything. Try to follow best recommended practices and read all the official documentation. Everything seems well tested. Then, start by installing agents to the rest of your projects and keep a close look to all logs and metrics New Relic gives you.

Other solutions like Microsoft EM and SCCM can be interdependent and cause all sorts of issues and additional costs. I think software should be optionally integrated and work on its own as a standalone solution. I like that ManageEngine allows for specific use of its software and not forcing users into an unneeded license or contract.

New Relic has full stack visibility and gives us all options for observability like one stop shop. It gives you front end, backend as well synthetic monitoring capabilities. Every other feature built into one cost model (usually) which ties to data that you send, it helps you leverage all features without having to pay additional charge for feature

Agent deployment is easily integrated into our workflow. Adding the agent to new servers is quick and painless

• By providing valuable insights into application performance and resource utilization, it has contributed to better decision-making and resource allocation.
• It has helped us identify and resolve performance issues more quickly, minimizing the impact on business operations.
• ManageEngine Application Manager has improved our ability to monitor and manage critical applications, reducing downtime and improving overall productivity.

• We were able to quickly identify our most time consuming APIs. In some cases we were able to bring down times for some apis from 4s to 200ms.
• We were able to identify our slowest database queries and optimize them for quicker response times.
