Native integration simplifies monitoring but documentation and cost improvements are needed
The ease of access in Azure is significant since it's native to the platform and easy to integrate. It has no maintenance overhead, and users don't have to navigate to another portal to get their desired result. It's the handiness that it has, rather than the features. The interpretation from the logs and injection requires custom runbooks. While it's complex, many services provide native insights and workbooks. It does the basic job quite efficiently. They added new kinds of metrics with more integrations to send out metrics. They have even added support for third-party tools that can be integrated. Azure Monitor is working on improvements and becoming more mature. Azure Monitor is stable and scalable. Azure Monitor is evolving with new workbooks and dashboards.

It consolidates all logs into one place and provides required features and functionalities
Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to do RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution works well overall. It's easy to implement and simple to use."
"I can conclude reports for the monthly, weekly, and peak time of the resources."
"We like this searchability and availability of the data."
"It's a service from Microsoft, so it will scale."
"The overall product rating is nine out of ten."
"Data exporting is easy, and this tool works seamlessly with other solutions. It's a stable and low-priced solution."
"Good load and metrics gathering and very good analysis."
"The most valuable features of Azure Monitor are the login analytics workspace and we can write any kind of custom queries in order to receive the data that is inserted into the login analytics workspace, diagnostic settings, et cetera."
"LogDNA consolidates all logs into one place, which is super valuable."
"The solution aggregates all event streams, so that if there are any issues, it's all in the same interface."
 

Cons

"I need connectivity with cost management."
"The solution needs better monitoring. It requires better log controls."
"The default interface should be improved."
"The product should integrate well with other tools or clouds in the future, as it is one of the areas where the product currently has certain shortcomings."
"This solution could be improved with more out-of-the-box functionalities and artificial intelligence to complete event correlation."
"It might not have all of the capabilities we will need."
"Azure Monitor's integration with applications could be improved."
"I believe Azure Monitor is already a top-notch solution with excellent functionality and there is not much I would suggest for improvement. However, there is one limitation that certain features require payment, even for testing purposes, which can be a challenge."
"No ability to encapsulate a query or a filter, and communicate or share that among the team."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a pay-as-you-go model. I find it very cost-effective."
"The tool's pricing is very good. I could say that Microsoft offers different cost models, which are listed on the product's website."
"The solution is a pay-as-you-go consumption service and is the least expensive in the market."
"Its cost depends on the ingestion of the logs. It could go anywhere. For an out-of-the-box platform such as FrameFlow, you pay pretty much a fixed price and you get what you get, whereas, with something like Azure Monitor, you pay by the ingestion charge, so you can have one client who pays hardly anything for the same alerts, and another client pays loads and loads."
"The Azure Insight is a little bit expensive."
"The solution is very costly because you have to pay for various things such as adding to logs and internet alerts."
"Azure Monitor's price is minimal to the point of being almost negligible."
"The product offers a pay-as-you-go model to users. The charges are to be paid according to the usage of the product."
