You’re missing out. Just saying… https://betterstack.com/community/comparisons/datadog-vs-newrelic/
DataDog is so far ahead of new relic it’s not even a joke. DataDog is just too fucking expensive.
Very expensive. Was a leader at another company, and whatever DD presented in beginning sounds cheap, but it became very expensive when we scaled
New relic's JVM binaries do not work very well at scale. They consume a crazy amount of memory and lead to latency spikes and errors at scale. None of the library upgrades and tuning suggested by the New Relic customer support fixed the issue. At Doordash nearly every backend team ended up ripping out the libraries to reduce SLO burn tied to the performance issues with the libraries
OP got roasted so hard in this thread
Tldr?
Dynatrace kills New Relic, but not sure what’s the verdict against Datadog.
Nice try 👌😂
New relic is bloated garbage. I’ve used both. I’d take Datadog > Cloudwatch/Amazon internal metric garbage > honeycomb > uncle Billy’s rehab project monitoring service > anything open source > hiring an intern to manually look through logs > no monitoring/yolo > new relic
much love, definitely appreciate being ranked ahead of ol' billy's passion project
