Centralized monitoring has improved real-time issue tracking and reduced root cause analysis time
One of the best features that Coralogix offers is that it is integration friendly. I can seamlessly work with different cloud providers including AWS, Azure, and GCP. I can monitor Kubernetes or Docker platforms as well, and I can integrate with the DevOps chain including Jenkins and all infrastructure code, Terraform, or Ansible. 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. I have the interface where I can use the drag-and-drop feature, and I can create different types of charts. Mainly, I have the line charts and time series ones that I generally use in many use cases, gauges, tables, pie charts, or markdown widgets. These are the ones generically available, and I can switch between the visualization types. I am getting the underlying query in that and can import and export dashboards built upon the JSON format. I can have my own APIs integrated with my dashboards as well, such as with Terraform, which is useful for scaling across my environments. Regarding root cause analysis, mainly what I can do is correlate across all of the layers because the main logs that I work on are storage-related, including CIFS, NFS, SAN traffic, and the metrics including storage, throughput, or VM resource usage. Being able to view logs, metrics, or traces available, I get all of these in one place, and I can do root cause analysis much quicker.

Helps us detect cyber threats quickly and integrate multiple feeds effectively
Overall, the product is good, but when it comes to some infrastructure issues, we have to dig into more logs. There is no straightforward indication of an issue. Health check kind of dashboards are not available. More AI would help us, and more optimization, since security products run more queries. The AI module could suggest solutions, optimizing queries or workload balancing. If the product itself advises on running queries during peak times, it would be similar to what ChatGPT currently offers. We see quite a few issues on stability. Even last week, we faced something, and identifying bottlenecks is not easy. We need more SMEs, and there is no mechanism to tell us about indexer or search head issues. Self-monitoring dashboards could be beneficial. The technical support still requires more improvement. Often, primary support takes a lot of time and forwards most solutions to the engineering side. The primary support team has very limited knowledge to provide.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"Coralogix saves us the need to actively tune and dig deep into our logs, which is something we have to do with other log management solutions, and is a genuine time saver due to its smart capabilities."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"In my experience, the best feature Coralogix offers is that the dashboard is pretty good."
"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."
"I have found the installation can be of medium difficulty to very complex depending on the use case."
"Splunk Enterprise Security comes with 300 pre-deployed use cases that can be easily customized to meet the specific needs of our organization, without the need to purchase additional tools."
"The technical support team at Splunk is highly responsive and knowledgeable."
"Splunk Enterprise Security streamlines the creation of what they call notables, which takes a lot of the effort that we would have to put into creating our own solution off the table and does it for us."
"It can log more logs than other solutions; it's a good way to troubleshoot problems."
"Searches logs from all devices and gives valuable information to the organisation, so it can drill down on all reports and security threats."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is the comprehensive logging capabilities it provides."
"I would definitely recommend using Splunk."
 

Cons

"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"I think Coralogix can be improved by setting up some AI type of tool inside it which can help new users."
"The main pain issue for me with Coralogix was that the syntax was a little tricky."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can improve in terms of probably being able to talk to additional sources."
"I would like more assistance with use cases and help with teaching us how to use it once it's installed."
"Its search or filtering capability is nice, but it can be improved. It is currently a bit complicated, and it should be simplified. If we can write the search filter in a more simplified way, it would be better."
"Its user interface for everything other than the charts can be improved. Some parts of it can be simplified a bit, such as when importing documents that have the network traffic. When you're going through the information about the network traffic, you have to have the expertise, but even if a program is supposed to be for IT support, it is good to make it user-friendly because it gets easier to train people. When something goes wrong, the more difficult a program is in terms of UI, the harder it is to fix the issue."
"The configuration could be better."
"My organization does not completely utilize risk-based alerting in Splunk Enterprise Security as it's not fully mature."
"Features related to content management must be improved."
"The GUI could be improved to include some of the capabilities that other BI solutions have."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"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."

"Splunk Enterprise Security is an expensive solution."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is not a cheap product, but I think it is worth every dollar that you pay."
"The pricing of Splunk Enterprise Security is high."

"Truly evaluate the data you want to ingest and go slow. Pulling in data that can provide no use to your mission only wastes data against your license."
"From what I have seen so far, Splunk has multiple cost models. The one that we are using is pretty good when it comes to ingesting data into the environment. It has worked out pretty well."
"We had a yearly subscription."
