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

"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."
"In my experience, the best feature Coralogix offers is that the dashboard is pretty good."
"It's been absolutely brilliant, I would say."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"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."
"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."
"Support is great; they are helpful and responsive, and they are the greatest support team that I ever worked with, especially in comparison with AWS support’s premium tier where Coralogix is a few times better than even AWS support."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Splunk has improved our operations by giving us access to more information and allowing us to deploy more use cases."
"The product is generally stable and forgiving."
"In the past we used the different application to collect logs. We used SurfWatch and VMware to do so. But, we found that the Splunk has more capacity to do more in less time. They provide a aster speed to index all the events , and this is a huge asset."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is probably one of the first products that actually could handle all the ingest and do all the correlation without crumbling under its own weight."
"The consolidated overview of all the events that come in through our environment and an easy-to-access interface for all our end users are valuable."
"I very much enjoy Splunk's robust search nature, which enables me to find the data I want within the data I have."
"The product is good, it satisfies our customers."
"The features of Splunk Enterprise Security that I appreciate the most are its flexibility and scalability, as it integrates disparate security solutions, offers many out-of-the-box apps through Splunkbase, enables straightforward customization, and supports efficient detection and alerting processes that improve overall business resilience."
 

Cons

"I see room for improvement in Coralogix regarding the cost, as they can reduce the costs for the license."
"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."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"The only improvement I remember is that the cost aspect is a bit more tedious."
"I think Coralogix can be improved by setting up some AI type of tool inside it which can help new users."
"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"The only improvement I am expecting is the cost of the licensing. Clients are going to other solutions just because of the cost."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can provide more details and help CISOs resolve vulnerability situations better. The reason is that the tools we choose for data analysis and log collection cannot collect all the data and logs. Splunk Enterprise Security should help me with this, but it cannot."
"When we do a rollout from the server or host or anything, we'd like to see more automation. It would save us time."
"Splunk Enterprise Security could improve in automation, flexibility, and providing more content out of the box."
"In the next releases, I would like to see more pricing flexibility."
"The product was designed for security and IT with business intelligence needs, such as PDF exporting, but this has not been the highest priority. While the functionality is there, it could be developed more."
"In the next release of Splunk, I think the machine learning should be emphasized."
"It needs documentation, and "how-to-do" information. It's complicated to build reports and views."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"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."
"We had a yearly subscription."
"The price of Splunk Enterprise Security is reasonable, falling somewhere in the middle range."
"ROI is estimated at saving my team roughly 10 to 12 man hours per week in troubleshooting for our company as well as what our profits had been from our services of installing, configuring, and supporting other clients with the product."
"Most people share the same thought that the ingestion rates can get pretty pricey. There is a lot of work we do to curate the data that we send to Splunk so that it is not too noisy or too expensive."
"Expensive compared to other options."
"Pricing and licensing are quite high compared to other tools or SIEM tools, but the features justify it."
"The Splunk licensing is high."
"The pricing of Splunk Enterprise Security is somewhat high, but comparing it with its benefits, it's acceptable. It depends on the type of business."
