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

"It's been absolutely brilliant, I would say."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"After implementing Coralogix, I noticed specific outcomes and improvements; whenever we try to fetch the data or check the monitoring logs, the spikes, the bars, and the graphs open very quickly, the latency is really very low, and it opens everything very fast, which makes a good impact on our organization."
"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 most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."
"It is a very well-organized solution, more user-friendly than ArcSight and QRadar, where I can search and do whatever I need in terms of dashboards, reports, etc., making it the best tool if you have a complex environment or if data ingestion is too huge."
"We have a one stop dashboard for health of some of our services where you can click in and it takes you to other dashboards that have custom near real-time metrics that show the application's health."
"The flexibility of the search capability is most valuable. You can use it for more than just a basic log aggregator. It is powerful in that regard."
"It is a great product overall."
"Splunk's strongest suit is its user interface. We can integrate multiple solutions and adjust settings in the Splunk interface."
"Splunk's interface is user-friendly, and it has apps and add-ons for most applications. We can easily normalize the data to make it readable and understand the logs. We easily get all the field extractions and enrichment done by using the apps and add-ons. This helps us understand the application logs because the raw data is useless unless we extract some useful information from it. These add-ons make it so much easier."
"You can use it to gather syslog messages from anything."
"The connections to the database are very good and updating the data files is simple to do. The dashboards are useful and user-friendly."
 

Cons

"I think Coralogix can be improved by setting up some AI type of tool inside it which can help new users."
"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."
"In terms of documentation, I think there can be more user-friendly documentation that stresses more on day-to-day issues."
"As a relatively new product, there are some rough edges yet and your mileage may vary."
"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"I want Splunk Enterprise Security to release more AI and machine learning features in the future."
"The use cases provided by Splunk are a good starting point, but could cover many additional topics to ensure that a smaller or less experienced shop might maximize the value of an ES deployment."
"The integration with all our tool sets felt like we were reinventing the wheel, which was a pain point for us."
"Queries are not always as easy or straightforward as they might be, so it can be difficult to figure out what you need to look for."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can be improved by addressing the content management interface, which is very outdated, slow, and clunky; sometimes we think things are saved and they haven't."
"In the next releases, I would like to see more pricing flexibility."
"Official training, even CBT, is expensive so not many people are able to get certified."
"Having analysts put their notes directly within the investigation feature in the incident review would be beneficial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"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."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"Pricing is pretty fair."
"The solution is a little expensive."
"I've heard Splunk is often preferred over other options, but the cost can be prohibitive for smaller organizations."
"The price is comparable."
"Splunk Enterprise becomes extremely expensive after the 20GB/month license."
"Splunk differs from other SIEM solutions by using a gigabyte-based pricing model, rather than the agent-based licenses common with its competitors."
"Splunk is costly but it’s worth it due to the high-end features."
"Be upfront about your needs and expectations. Splunk is great to work with."
