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 overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"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."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"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 my organization by handling the responsibility for the developers to track their services and see what is actually going on there in terms of logs of their services, whether it is info, debug, error, or warnings."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"With Coralogix, we have saved money and time."
"The technical support has been very good. They are very responsive and have been helpful."
"Splunk has enabled us to utilize many different data sources and is easy-to-use."
"The initial deployment was straightforward."
"Our clients are easily able to modify and evolve their implementations."
"We used it to create a custom anomaly detection data model to monitor the activity of our back-end services on an hourly basis relative to the past three months of activity."
"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."
"We can do things in minutes instead of days."
"Out-of-the-box, it seems very powerful."
 

Cons

"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."
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"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."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"Because the licensing model is very complicated to understand, it would be better to start with another product that provides a better licensing model."
"The price of the solution could be cheaper."
"Security administration and user access control is pretty basic. The user access control could be much more granular, so that the admins can control r/w/x access for specific features of the product like dashboards, etc."
"Regarding pricing, Splunk Enterprise Security is on the higher side in terms of cost. It is more suitable for enterprises that can fully utilize its capabilities, and smaller organizations might find it expensive, especially when dealing with large volumes of data and licensing models."
"Splunk could be improved by reducing the cost. The cost is one of the biggest challenges for us in keeping to our production requirements."
"The problem with Splunk Enterprise Security generally, from what I've seen in the last couple of years, is that it has a cultural, assumption design model around it, which means the company has to fit its internal processes in terms of how to use it."
"The configuration had a bit of a learning curve."
"It would be nice if Splunk provided a little more documentation and instructions on how to upload. The steps are short, but sometimes it's not so intuitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"It's a little bit expensive for a small to medium enterprise."
"The Splunk licensing is high."
"I assume that the pricing is reasonable, because if it was too costly, there are other alternatives."
"Splunk is expensive based on our current requirements, but it's obviously worth what we pay."
"The price of Splunk is reasonable."
"The cost is on the high end, which makes it difficult for some organizations to use."
"I've heard Splunk is often preferred over other options, but the cost can be prohibitive for smaller organizations."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is affordable."
