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."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"The overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"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 initial setup is straightforward."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"Combating insider threats and advanced persistent threats is an amazing feature of Splunk Enterprise Security, and it gives us the visibility that we need for those detections that other software doesn't have."
"It's great for finding anonymous threats."
"We can ingest and correlate data from virtually any type of system."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is able to process a huge amount of data without any issues."
"The integration and plugin availability are nice, the AI module is also great."
"Splunk is quite flexible for our customers. Splunk does not filter from a specific lock, you can define it later."
"The most valuable function is the notable events. When I joined the team, I asked them what they could currently see, and they said nothing. I was pretty shocked. I know for a fact that they're using Enterprise Security or at least they had purchased it. I told them that there are several dashboards within Splunk that we can leverage. There is also notable events where we can see potential incidents or potential alerts about the infrastructure and the network itself."
"Splunk goes beyond collecting basic metrics like CPU or memory utilization; it comprehensively gathers data from various sources, including networks, applications, and virtualization, eliminating the need for siloed solutions and enhancing the capabilities of existing engineering software."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"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."
"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"We had an instance when Splunk failed and it took us a couple of days to recover."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can be improved by including backup network detection and response and safe management to the paid platform."
"It is a challenge to manage the environment in such a way, that one’s log, even with the bandwidth license, isn’t exceeded."
"The huge price increases that have been experienced over the last couple of years do not appear to be justified by new features or items in general."
"Some of the queries are difficult to run and have room for improvement."
"The CIM model is the method Splunk uses to normalize data and categorize its important parts, but it is quite complex."
"There are new services which are coming up. If Splunk can catch up with the speed of Amazon, and with the integration, instead of us waiting for another year or so, that would be good."
"The solution could improve by increasing the performance. We have run into problems when large amounts of data are processed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"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."
"Further reductions would be fantastic, and I believe that more and more people would flock to it."
"Splunk should be able to integrate with other product using the free version."
"The price of Splunk is reasonable."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is affordable."
"I am fine with the licensing, but in terms of the cost, it is expensive for the data that we have. We have an open discussion with our account rep about this."
"It is possible to use a developer's license, which is up to 10GB per day of volume traffic, which is usually enough for most use cases."
"It is pretty straightforward and based on the sizing. If I compare it with other competitors, it makes sense."
"The price of Splunk Enterprise Security is reasonable, falling somewhere in the middle range."
