01Competitive Landscape

Narrative competitive analysis (SAP-specific)

Differentiators for New Relic for SAP: - The solution uses an SAP-certified ABAP add-on installed centrally for ABAP-based systems, which avoids installing agents on each production SAP server and centralizes collection for ABAP telemetry. - The platform supports correlating SAP telemetry with non-SAP telemetry in a unified interface, which can be useful for landscapes with extensive integration points. Areas where competitors may have advantages: - Dynatrace is often selected for automated topology discovery and AI-assisted root-cause analysis; public materials emphasize agent-based auto-discovery and automation. - AppDynamics has a long-standing enterprise APM profile and Cisco relationships that can influence selection in some large enterprises. - Elastic or Splunk can be compelling where organizations already standardize on those ecosystems for logging and search, though APM depth and integration approach vary. - OpenTelemetry with a self-hosted backend appeals to buyers prioritizing data ownership and cost control but requires greater engineering and operational investment. As with any competitor material, statements from vendor comparison pages are inherently biased and should be validated in a proof-of-concept.

	New Relic SAP Monitoring	Dynatrace (platform)	Datadog (platform)
Starting Price	Free tier for platform exists; SAP monitoring is a paid add-on (published per-instance add-on pricing)	Public list rates exist for some metrics; enterprise commitments common	Public list rates; module/add-on model varies by capability
Pricing Metric	Published per-data-volume ingest pricing + published user/compute pricing + published per-instance SAP SID add-on	Memory/host/GiB-hour metrics + logs/traces add-ons (published pricing models)	Host/container/session/log/trace metrics vary by product (published pricing models)
Primary fit	Organizations seeking unified SAP + non-SAP observability and expressive query/dashboard capabilities	Organizations requiring automated topology mapping and AI-assisted troubleshooting; agent-based auto-discovery	Cloud-native and DevOps-focused organizations that standardize on Datadog modules
Key Strength	Central ABAP add-on approach for SAP telemetry and correlation into a MELT platform	Automated topology and AI-root-cause capabilities; agent auto-discovery approach	Broad integration catalog and strong SaaS monitoring UX
Key Weakness	Pricing complexity (ingest + user access + per-instance add-on) and mixed user experience feedback	Enterprise minimums and pricing complexity in practice for some buyers	Costs can increase with logs and custom metrics; multiple add-ons can complicate TCO
