Case Study: Miniclip achieves $500K in cloud savings and faster issue resolution with New Relic

Miniclip Keeps the Fun Going with New Relic

Miniclip, a global digital games company with more than 100 mobile titles and about 70 million monthly active users, needed better visibility into application performance. Developers were limited to server-level monitoring, operations were repeatedly firefighting, and the company wanted a DevOps approach to predict capacity needs and ensure stable releases.

By adopting New Relic APM, Server, and Plugins across development, QA, and production, Miniclip gained app-level insight that cut issue identification time by roughly 90%, enabled a smooth AWS migration and right‑sizing of resources, and saved about $500,000 in cloud costs in one year. The result was far less downtime, a leaner DevOps footprint, and more engineering time focused on building new games.
