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 scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"Functionality-wise, this product is more mature compared to them, plus there are additional capabilities, for example, I can keep my cost in check, and certain functionality in these terms of cost control is better."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Splunk simplifies real-time problem identification and resolution by seamlessly integrating existing customer and vendor systems."
"We can present to our management in real time the security of the batch management for the PCs, security regarding the network equipment. We're currently working in the Azure Cloud project, so we can send any logs from the cloud to Splunk. We can monitor them and we can present to the managers and customers. It's a very good solution for reporting. We use Splunk for reporting and monitoring of any solution in the company."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk is security information and event management (SIEM), and the solution is easy to use, has useful reports, and a good interface."
"The risk-based alerting is excellent."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is website activity monitoring."
"The feature I appreciate the most about Splunk Enterprise Security is the CIM data model, which allows users to bring in data from different technologies, such as firewalls, endpoints, and perimeter DMZs, enabling every device to pump data into Splunk Enterprise Security, with the data model normalizing all the data and placing it in a common plane."
"It's extremely scalable, it's a very robust solution and certainly has the capability of handling far bigger data requirements than a lot of the other tools."
"The integration and plugin availability are nice; the AI module is also great."
 

Cons

"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"In terms of documentation, I think there can be more user-friendly documentation that stresses more on day-to-day issues."
"The main pain issue for me with Coralogix was that the syntax was a little tricky."
"I think Coralogix can be improved by setting up some AI type of tool inside it which can help new users."
"As a relatively new product, there are some rough edges yet and your mileage may vary."
"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"Improving the infrastructure behind Splunk Enterprise Security is vital—enhanced cores, CPUs, and memory should be prioritized to support better processing power."
"Given the ever-increasing number of threats, I would like Splunk to update its threat signatures more frequently."
"It would be good if the solution had some kind of copilot to automate or help write correlation searches."
"There are limitations with Splunk not detecting all user activity, especially on mainframes and network devices."
"Our two main complaints are about the difficulty of the initial setup and the licensing model."
"The search query seems slow, but I am not sure if that is just because it is searching millions upon millions of lines of text."
"We can only increase the environment. For instance, with an ES server, we cannot make a cluster of ES. If you have two servers and want to make a cluster of these two servers for ES, that is not possible."
"It'd be really nice if Splunk Enterprise Security had a better and solid configuration guide."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"Splunk is priced higher than other solutions."
"I believe there is room for improvement in reducing costs, particularly in the financial aspect, as Splunk tends to be pricier compared to other options."
"I think that most of the monitoring solutions are expensive."
"The pricing depends on the bandwidth of an organization and is good compared to some SIEM tools. IBM, for example, is quite costly. But Microsoft Sentinel is notably cheaper."
"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 expensive, but it is a good tool. It is worth the cost."
"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."
"The pricing model is based on the number of gigabytes that you ingest into the Splunk system. So it can be an expensive solution."
