Logging has reduced costs and now provides fast queries and dashboards for lambda troubleshooting
Axiom Team excels at querying, with a query language that makes it very easy to assemble queries. The platform also makes it simple to create dashboards from logs. Axiom Team dashboards are used to monitor execution time, pricing, and errors. Axiom Team has positively impacted the organization by greatly reducing logging costs.

Comprehensive monitoring has improved performance, capacity planning, and multi-source log analysis
VMware Aria Operations for Logs would be used to completely monitor the health of your environment. Second is to understand your existing capacity and forecast your capacity for the next year or so. Third would be on performance management, understanding how the environment is performing, and what has to be done to optimize it. We use VMware Aria Operations for Logs for these purposes. We also use VMware Aria Operations for Logs to monitor non-VMware components as well. VMware Aria Operations for Logs is now part of a bigger suite with several modules added. You have an option to collect logs from various sources and then you can do some sorts of analytics from it as well. All of this can be done with VMware Aria Operations for Logs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Axiom Team has positively impacted the organization by greatly reducing logging costs."
"Axiom Team has positively impacted my organization mainly in terms of cost, as we have reduced our logging cost by approximately half."
"It allows us to gain a comprehensive overview of our infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature is server virtualization. It's been very useful."
"It is a highly stable solution...It is a highly scalable solution."
"The most valuable features are log centralization and long-term retention for logs."
"Log Insight seems to be better than other solutions in terms of very good integrations and working out items to be able to log."
"The virtualization solution supports data center virtualization, network and security."
"It is a scalable solution; I can say that I agree with the claims that it can be scaled, it is an awesome product, and organizationally it is able to cover our needs completely."
"Another advantage of the solution is that it can also integrate with your network and other hardware and software devices, so you would be able to manage your entire IT estate using just one single tool which is vRealize Log Insight, so I would strongly recommend it to anyone thinking of purchasing the solution."
 

Cons

"Axiom Team can be improved by ingesting logs faster, if possible."
"Log retention should have more options for user control."
"The solution is a very good tool, but it has a lot of limitations. One of the main issues is around how you define your retention policy, for instance, in Log Insight. It doesn't have it. You can't define a log retention policy. You also can't define the destination or location for your logs. All of the logs are in one index or one bucket."
"Technical support should be improved."
"From an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made more user-friendly."
"The solution is a very good tool, but it has a lot of limitations."
"The solution should be more user-friendly. The user interface and dashboard could be simplified."
"It's great for VMware, but it would be good if they had third-party logins."
"vRealize Log Insight has very limited integration and is primarily designed for VMware environments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The license cost for any other monitoring tool is too high compared to this product."
"Pricing is good because it is part of the suite package. It comes in a bundle for us."
"The product's price is reasonable, but when it comes to SQL licensing, it's a bit expensive."
"The pricing has been updated recently."
"I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"I am not sure what the exact cost is. However, I believe the vRealize suite costs $2,500.00 per year."
"The licensing cost for vRealize Log Insight is a little higher, so in terms of cost, it all depends upon what kind of environment you have. If you have a complete virtualized environment, or at least you're using a ninety-five percent virtualized environment, then vRealize Log Insight will play a very good role because it is a VMware component, so it has very tight integration with other VMware components and systems. This means you don't have to procure any other monitoring and management tool, and you don't need a separate automation tool. vRealize Log Insight will have an upper hand if your environment is purely virtualized on VMware. If you're using a mix of physical and virtual components, for example, a 50:50 ratio, then you need to have a third-party component to manage overall monitoring."
"It is not cheap. But it is worth it."
