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.

A solution for data pipelines but has connector limitations
We have used Kafka for seven years. IBM streams gives you many OOTB features that can boost the time-to-market, especially when it comes to reporting and monitoring for example. Confluent is recognized as one of the leaders in this space and the main reason for this is related to the complete vision of the platform also the large number of connectors. This gives the edge and competitive advatnage.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best features that Coralogix offers include the ability to see in one place all the logs related to the application from end-to-end."
"It's been absolutely brilliant, I would say."
"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."
"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."
"I have worked on multiple logging systems, and I would say Coralogix was the best among those."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"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."
"As a result, the TELCO company was able to cut down the time it took to respond to customer needs and there were fewer complaints."
"The OEM Solution (Excel-medical.com) running on top of IBM Streams provides real-time clinical algorithms that can give better insight into the patient's acuity, thus cutting off time to discharge patients and inversely making sure that sick patients don't get discharged until ready."
"The product has enabled us to create solutions to client problems that would have either been impossible or very expensive/difficult using other technologies."
"Easy development and deployment, Java implementation features, and the real time analyser and alarm function are the most valuable features for us."
 

Cons

"The main pain issue for me with Coralogix was that the syntax was a little tricky."
"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."
"In terms of documentation, I think there can be more user-friendly documentation that stresses more on day-to-day issues."
"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."
"As a relatively new product, there are some rough edges yet and your mileage may vary."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"The only improvement I remember is that the cost aspect is a bit more tedious."
"I’d like to see a tool kit specifically targeted at incremental machine learning. It’s already great for scoring previously trained models, but dynamically updating models is currently more of a 'grow your own' kind of thing."
"The development IDE sometimes crashes and freezes."
"We had some stability issues where we used embedded Zookeeper in production."
"The price and versatility of this product need to improve - it is not inexpensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"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."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
