Featured Reviews

Jorge Florez - PeerSpot reviewer
SaaS platform used by developers to store and conveniently search for logs
If a company has the budget and the log service is critical for them, I would say use Coralogix. It is a very good service for that. I would rate Coralogix an eight out of ten. It is an excellent service for storing logs for a long time. The capacity is unlimited for unindexed logs. The cost model is also very efficient because you pay for the ingested data per month. This can be compared to a solution like New Relic where you have to pay it upfront and cannot limit the data ingestion. Coralogix provides an easy way to search for logs and to visualize them. This a great feature because developers are constantly looking for or browsing logs.
LarsChristensen - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficient troubleshooting with precise log filtering and an easy setup
The tool could benefit from improved filter settings and dashboarding. While there are dashboards available, they are often created by community members and may not work after updates. It would be beneficial to have a roadmap for these dashboards to ensure consistent functionality. It would also be advantageous if the tool could process even large amounts of data faster, though this may be more related to data movement challenges rather than the software itself.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"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 most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"vRealize Log Insight has been running without any issues."
"The tool helps my company deal with security and log analysis, which are very important areas for us...It is a scalable solution."
"The interface of the solution is good."
"The trace log is the solution's most valuable feature. It's very helpful in troubleshooting problems."
"It is a very useful tool if you have a VMware environment."
"The events are notably more descriptive, aiding in security and event analysis. We've also integrated Sky Collector, providing valuable insights and solutions for troubleshooting."
"What I like is that you can have different storage locations for different applications."
"We use the on-premises version of this solution for log analysis and to find details about certain issues."
 

Cons

"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"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."
"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"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."
"The product's price falls on the higher end of the spectrum, making it an area of concern."
"I think that it should be able to integrate with other third-party backup and recovery solutions, more that it does now."
"The response time and quality need improvement. It takes too long to prove a problem and get a solution."
"If data migration occurs during a search, it alters performance, causing delays."
"Log retention should have more options for user control."
"The pricing of the solution could be improved."
"The dashboard needs to be improved because this is what I need to monitor my infrastructure."
"Paid or free does not matter, but it is complex to find good training material for vRealize Log Insight."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"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 pricing has been updated recently."
"Pricing is good because it is part of the suite package. It comes in a bundle for us."
"I am not sure what the exact cost is. However, I believe the vRealize suite costs $2,500.00 per year."
"The licensing cost for vRealize Log Insight is a little higher, so in terms of cost, it all depends upon what kind of environment you have. If you have a complete virtualized environment, or at least you're using a ninety-five percent virtualized environment, then vRealize Log Insight will play a very good role because it is a VMware component, so it has very tight integration with other VMware components and systems. This means you don't have to procure any other monitoring and management tool, and you don't need a separate automation tool. vRealize Log Insight will have an upper hand if your environment is purely virtualized on VMware. If you're using a mix of physical and virtual components, for example, a 50:50 ratio, then you need to have a third-party component to manage overall monitoring."
"The product's price is reasonable, but when it comes to SQL licensing, it's a bit expensive."
"The license cost for any other monitoring tool is too high compared to this product."
"I think it is a reasonably priced product."
"It is not cheap. But it is worth it."
