Featured Reviews

Arka Sarkar - PeerSpot reviewer

Centralized monitoring has transformed telecom troubleshooting and now reduces downtime proactively
Coralogix works well for our needs, but there are a few areas where improvements can be made. One area is querying performance for large-scale data sets. When we are dealing with very high log volumes, some complex queries take time to return results. Improving query speed and optimization would enhance the troubleshooting experience. Another point is the learning curve for advanced features. While basic usage is straightforward, advanced querying and dashboard configurations can take time for new users we are onboarding. We have faced this situation in our organization's domain frequently. More simplified UI options or guided templates would help new team members onboard faster. Additionally, dashboard customization flexibility needs improvement. Although dashboards are useful, having more flexibility in customization would make them even more powerful. An important point is cost optimization. Since log volume is high in our environment, better visibility and control over cost optimization would be beneficial. These are minor improvements overall. Coralogix already provides strong capabilities for centralized logging and monitoring, but enhancing these areas would make it even more efficient for large-scale environments in our telecom servers. Improvements could include query performance, alert noise reduction, and ease of use for advanced features, especially for large-scale environments like ours.

Centralized log insights have reduced investigation time and improve security response
One improvement I want to see in Graylog Enterprise is artificial intelligence to help us automatically identify unusual patterns and suggest possible causes. I also want to see more ready-made dashboards and alert templates for common security use cases to help us gain value from the platform faster after deployment. Lastly, I want to see improvements in handling very large volumes of data, especially after searching, and a more user-friendly log management system, particularly in large environments. I give Graylog Enterprise a 9 out of 10 because it has a limitation of a steep learning curve for new users due to the many configuration options. It takes considerable time to become comfortable with creating searches, dashboards, and alerts. Additionally, in very large environments with large volumes of logs, it requires careful planning, and its data retention is quite limited.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"Coralogix has positively impacted my organization by handling the responsibility for the developers to track their services and see what is actually going on there in terms of logs of their services, whether it is info, debug, error, or warnings."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"With Coralogix, we have saved money and time."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"Coralogix has positively impacted our organization by providing us with a clearer data flow, which allows us to analyze data better and find errors easier using the smart logs it offers."
"Coralogix has positively impacted my organization by providing a centralized console to monitor the dashboard, giving me rich flexibility to see different sorts of data that is spread across the logs, metrics, or traces, which are the typical pillars of the observability tool."
"The product does all the things it must do very well."
"I am very proud of how very stable the solution is."
"We run a containerized microservices environment, and being able to set up streams and search for errors and anomalies across hundreds of containers is why a log aggregation platform like Graylog is valuable to us."
"While I cannot provide an exact number, Graylog Enterprise has reduced our investigation time by around 80%."
"Graylog is very handy."
"Message forwarding through the in-built module."
"We have scaled from a single machine installation (a VM with a Graylog + ES + MongoDB) to (2 Graylog + 2 ES + 3 MongoDB). This was done smoothly with a minimal impact on logging."
"Allowing us to set up alerts and integrate with platforms we already use, such as Slack and OpsGenie to alert users of these errors proactively, is also a very useful feature."
 

Cons

"We have asked the company to auto-revert the changes after a while so that the system works typically. We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"The only improvement I remember is that the cost aspect is a bit more tedious."
"Coralogix works well for our needs, but there are a few areas where improvements can be made."
"In terms of documentation, I think there can be more user-friendly documentation that stresses more on day-to-day issues."
"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"The main pain issue for me with Coralogix was that the syntax was a little tricky."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"The infrastructure cost is the main issue. I like the rest. If the infrastructure costs could be lower, it would be fantastic."
"We ran into problems with Elasticsearch throwing a circuit-breaking exception due to field data size being too large. It turned out that the heap size directly impacted this size in a high-throughput environment, causing unexplained instability in Graylog. We were able to troubleshoot on the Elasticsearch size, but we should have been able to reference some minimum requirements for Graylog to know that our settings weren't sufficient."
"Since container orchestration systems are popular and Graylog fits the niche well, perhaps they could officially support running in docker containers on Kubernetes as a StatefulSet as a use case. That way, the declarative nature of Kubernetes config files would document their best case deployment scenario-"
"There should be some user groups and an auto sign-in feature.​"
"The initial setup was really complex because I did it myself."
"Lacks sufficient documentation."
"I would like to see a date and time in the Graylog Grok patterns so that I can save time when searching for a log. I like how the streams and the search query work, but adding a date and time will allow me to pull out a log in a milli-second."
"Graylog could improve the process of creating rules. We have to create them manually by doing parses and applying them. Other SIEM solutions have basic rules and you can create and get more events of interest."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
"It's open source and free. They have a paid version, but we never looked into that because we never needed the features of the paid version."
"We are using the free version of the product. However, the paid version is expensive."
"I am using a community edition. I have not looked at the enterprise offering from Graylog."
"Consider Enterprise support if you have atypical needs or setup requirements.​"
"It's an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."
"I use the free version of Graylog."
"There is an open source version and an enterprise version. I wouldn't recommend the enterprise version, but as an open source solution, it is solid and works really well."
"Having paid official support is wise for projects."
