Centralized monitoring has transformed telecom troubleshooting and now reduces downtime proactively
Coralogix works well for our needs, but there are a few areas where improvements can be made. One area is querying performance for large-scale data sets. When we are dealing with very high log volumes, some complex queries take time to return results. Improving query speed and optimization would enhance the troubleshooting experience. Another point is the learning curve for advanced features. While basic usage is straightforward, advanced querying and dashboard configurations can take time for new users we are onboarding. We have faced this situation in our organization's domain frequently. More simplified UI options or guided templates would help new team members onboard faster. Additionally, dashboard customization flexibility needs improvement. Although dashboards are useful, having more flexibility in customization would make them even more powerful. An important point is cost optimization. Since log volume is high in our environment, better visibility and control over cost optimization would be beneficial. These are minor improvements overall. Coralogix already provides strong capabilities for centralized logging and monitoring, but enhancing these areas would make it even more efficient for large-scale environments in our telecom servers. Improvements could include query performance, alert noise reduction, and ease of use for advanced features, especially for large-scale environments like ours.

Automation and insightful diagnostics elevate operations while improvements are welcome
The new version 8.18 has brought significant improvements. The main purpose of using this tool is having a single console to manage all entities. The cloud integration capabilities, including private, public, and hybrid, are already well-implemented. The ability to manage multiple vCenters across different geographical locations is very effective. The new Skyline health feature and certificate and licensing management are particularly useful improvements. The dashboard's overview tab provides comprehensive information about current vCenter status, resizable amounts, reclamation opportunities, anomalies, diagnostics, licensing, and certificates. However, there is room for improvement in application analysis. The current functionality lacks detailed monitoring at the kernel level, focusing mainly on CPU, memory, and storage matrices. Enhanced application monitoring capabilities, including tracking downtime for specific types of applications such as transactional or e-commerce applications, would be beneficial.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"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 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 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."
"Using Coralogix has significantly improved the efficiency and structure of my daily work, especially in monitoring and troubleshooting."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"With Coralogix, we have saved money and time."
"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."
"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."
"It significantly improves application performance management by offering recommendations for resource allocation to avoid wastage or overcommitment."
"The features I find most valuable is the querying and alerting capabilities."
"I find VMware Aria Operations for Applications to be very stable, and I would rate it a ten out of ten."
"People are very pleased with the implementation."
"It has a familiar interface, which makes it easy to get started."
"Tanzu itself, integrated with multiple solutions, bestows support and security upon a container platform, especially when it comes to managing open-source container platforms such as Kubernetes."
"The solution provides single-console management for multiple VMware environments and cloud integrations, whether hybrid, private, or public cloud."
"VMware Aria Operations for Applications offers significant features such as real-time statistics, the ability to identify possible issues within the VM environment, and helpful heat maps."
 

Cons

"Coralogix can be improved by having better documentation to help new people onboard into this platform and understand the systems, including how they can integrate their cloud provider to better understand how Coralogix and the cloud provider work in sync."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"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 documentation of the tool could be improved"
"I think Coralogix can be improved by setting up some AI type of tool inside it which can help new users."
"Coralogix can be improved by cleaning up the UI, as it is too cluttered. If the search speed could also be improved, that would be helpful."
"Its billing model is consumption-based. I understand the consumption-based model, but it is not necessarily easy to estimate and guess how many points or how much we are going to consume on a specific application up until we get to that point. So, for us, it would be helpful to have more insights or predictability into what we can expect from a cost perspective if we are starting to use specific features. This can potentially also drive our consumption a bit more."
"The initial setup should be easier and more seamless."
"It could use a URL document server. Everything in the market is moving towards automation and everybody's looking for the single click operations as well relational data locality."
"So far, the solution's learning curve has been pretty high."
"The return on investment is best suited for organizations that do not have the resources for a dedicated VM environment team. However, the cost of the product doesn't show significant benefits."
"The support from VMware is not very helpful. This is because you always receive many questions from the support service but few actual solutions."
"The main problem I have is that the license cost is very high."
"The implementation is a long process that should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"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."
"I don't have the details. In our case, there is a mixture in place. We have production usage, and we are also doing training for VMware. So, we also have a training instance. It is worth the money you would spend on it. That's because if you were to build all of this yourself by using some of the open source tools, then you would need a lot of time."
"Different locations require different setups. In your terms, around 300 to around 400K USD."
"I would rate the pricing as three out of five."
"The licensing costs are very high, particularly when you consider that we have to purchase a level 1 license for every integration, such as the load balancer, HAProxy, and the MSSP. And if you want to use vSAN, that's another license. Then, of course, Tanzu Observability has its own separate license."
