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.

Pros

"The initial setup is straightforward."
"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 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 log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"The most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."
"In my experience, the best feature Coralogix offers is that the dashboard is pretty good."
"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."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the dashboard, which allows us to see everything on the same page and provides easy visibility into problems."
"Ease of correlation, creating correlation searches are easy and you can combine multiple sources with little effort"
"It has a rapid response search environment in the event of an incident."
"Exporting is a good feature. It helps me out when I have to do reports. I do a lot of exporting and crunching of the numbers. Dashboards are okay for showing to the leadership, but for doing statistics and updating tickets, the export feature is very beneficial for me."
"It is lovely to have everything we need in one tool. Everything is quite centralized."
"If I need to integrate devices for logs, it is easier with Splunk. We can integrate different applications, network devices, and databases. It is also very rich in documents. It is the best."
"The log aggregation is great."
"The best feature I've seen is the ability to easily change the query based on the dashboard or based on the chart we have to create, allowing any value or metric we want to add to that particular chart while keeping the rest of the dashboard settings intact."
 

Cons

"I think Coralogix can be improved by setting up some AI type of tool inside it which can help new users."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"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's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"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."
"In terms of documentation, I think there can be more user-friendly documentation that stresses more on day-to-day issues."
"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."
"The solution could use a different licensing model."
"This solution could be improved by better pricing in general and by easier installation."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can be improved by including backup network detection and response and safe management to the paid platform."
"I feel as though a major focus of upcoming releases should be set on Machine Learning, Predictive Analytics, and I would enjoy to see more security focused add-ons and apps developed by the vendor."
"The solution is expensive."
"Although the technical support is adequate, there is still room for improvement."
"They can improve their support teams. They can also improve their capability of ingesting data from different IoT sources."
"Splunk Enterprise Security would benefit from a more robust rule engine to reduce false positives."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The price of Splunk is too high for our market."
"The pricing seems good relative to the other vendors that we have had here. However, they need to find ways to be more flexible with the licensing and be able to deal with situations where we start generating more logs. Maybe having some controls in the Splunk interface to turn it off, so we don't have to change anything in our application."
"Luckily, we come under a large federal agency, and before the pandemic, they signed a large enterprise license agreement. It worked out great and to our advantage because we are a small organization. We got a 300 gig license, and we just did not have the buying power to be able to get products cheaply. Because we all partnered together under the agency umbrella, we were able to get Splunk Enterprise Security, UBA, and ITSI for cheap. This was good considering the fact that some of these premium apps require a minimum number of users, and we do not have the number of people needed to even justify buying it."
"The solution is costly."
"The license for Splunk Enterprise Security is 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."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"It's definitely worth it."
