### "New Relic can do anything but is hard to get going with" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *21 August 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: New Relic is a very expansive product that can do so so much. It really can cover the capabilities of multiple other products.
> 
> **Cons**: I found it very hard and complicated to get started without training. I found I got lost in the UI often and the terminology was confusing. It took a lot of training to figure out how to use it properly.
> 
> I have used New Relic since 2016 but only in the last few years I set up the product and used it more extensively.

### "Great tool for quickly monitoring performance across your infrastructure" — 4.0/5

> **Mark** | *23 October 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: New Relic is great for quickly seeing trends and changes across databases and applications. It is easy to identify problems with performance or load and quickly get to the root cause or at least a step in the right direction to help solve your problem with your infrastructure. It can also be customised to pull in the relevant information.
> 
> **Cons**: We did not find many drawbacks with New Relic aside from the cost which is a little high, it does exactly what it says in and a straightforward way while allowing for customisation.
> 
> Overall,New Relic is easy to use straight off the bat, it can be easily integrated with other solutions and has easy to setup thresholds to provide alerting to the relevant people and teams.

### "New Relic Review - Experience from Morningstar" — 5.0/5

> **Ruchika** | *25 July 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Tech support, easy to use, user friendly. I like how New Relic provides deep visibility into applications and infrastructure through one unified platform. The real-time performance monitoring, powerful alerting, and customizable dashboards make it easy to detect issues quickly and maintain reliability. I also appreciate the ease of integration with cloud providers.
> 
> **Cons**: The incidents do not auto resolve instantly specially for process monitoring. &#10;&#10;When there are same alerts from different conditions it is not smart enough to not open a separate incident.&#10;&#10;Occasional Lag: Rare delays in metrics during high load.
> 
> Overall, my experience with New Relic has been very positive. It offers comprehensive observability across applications, infrastructure, and synthetics, enabling quick detection and resolution of performance issues. However- need some fixes in UI bugs/glitches.
