New Relic Named Most Prevalent Web Performance Solution in Internet Retailer's 2015 Leading Vendors

Internet Retailer Magazine’s 2015 Edition of Leading Vendors for the Top 1,000 has listed New Relic as the No. 1 most prevalent web performance monitoring solution among the Top 1,000 E-Retailer merchants.

New Relic’s growth among the Top 1000 Merchants in 2014 granted the company inclusion in the top 25 service providers listing, which crossed 30 technology categories.

New Relic was listed as:

- No. 1 in number of Top 1,000 clients in web performance monitoring

- No. 2 in number of Top 500 clients in web performance monitoring

- No. 3 in collective web sales of the Top 1,000 who named New Relic

- No. 19 of a Top 25 Service Provider List for the Top 1,000 that crosses 30 technology categories

Internet Retailer provides e-commerce business intelligence through print and digital channels. The research publication publishes the largest monthly magazine in e-retailing as well as the most visited informational web site in e-commerce. The methodology for the Leading Vendors to the Top 1,000 results from surveys conducted by Internet Retailer in an extended research and fact-checking process that includes gathering data from the Top 1,000 e-retailers, determined by their full financial operations, including web sales figures, web traffic figures, monthly site visitors. The vendor ranking is based upon the number of E-Retailers who named the vendor as their solution provider.

“In an industry where your brand's reputation is heavily reliant on the customer's experience in the mobile and web environment, the way you manage and monitor your e-commerce site can potentially make or break you. We provide our e-commerce customers with real-time metrics and insights through our suite of software analytics products. This information is crucial in a dynamic and fast-paced industry where understanding consumer behavior experience is imperative,” says Chris Cook, President and COO, New Relic.

Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...
