"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."

"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"Kong Enterprise comes with some ready plug-ins, which is very good for the customers."
"The tool's feature that I find most beneficial is rate limiting. In our usage, especially in the financial sector, we prioritize limiting API usage. This is crucial because we provide APIs to other companies and must ensure they adhere to their allocated usage limits. Without rate limiting, there's a risk of excessive usage, which could result in significant costs."
"Kong enterprise has significantly enhanced our ability to manage and secure our Microservices. Its most valuable feature is monitoring."
"The most valuable feature of Kong Enterprise is its capability to integrate with various security tools."
"There are a few features that I like about Kong when it comes to authentication and authorization. Specifically, being able to use Kong for role-based access control (RBAC), and then further being able to integrate the RBAC mechanism with our enterprise directory, was very useful."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it seamlessly supports a vast number of tools."
"In our buying companies' perspective, it was easier to use compared to other platforms. The markets were pretty familiar with the solutions."
"We use the solution for load-balancing, caching, and rate-limiting APIs."
"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 user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"There should be an easier way to integrate with other solutions, even though it's the same API solution layer. Comparability will be a good improvement."
"The technical support team's response time needs to be improved."
"It becomes difficult if you try to scale it up to multiple clusters."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"They could focus more on pricing."
"Kong Enterprise needs to improve its pricing, which starts at hundreds of thousands of dollars. Pricing should be based on API usage rather than monthly. It should improve its documentation as well."
"The developer portal needs to be improved."
"The solution should include policy features that are available in other solutions like MuleSoft API manager but missing in Kong Enterprise."
