Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The visibility that it provides is valuable. It is helping in being proactive around incident management. It is helping us to be able to get more visibility into our customers' applications so that we can assist them at the application layer. We also provide them the infrastructure from an AWS standpoint. We are able to make sure that our customers are aware of certain critical things around the analytical piece of either the network or the application. We're able to call customers before they even know about the issue. From there, we can start putting together some change management processes and help them a bit."
"We have hundreds of microservices, and knowing how top-level requests weave throughout all of them is invaluable."
"The observability on offer is the most useful aspect of the product."
"The management of SLOs and their related burn-rate monitors have allowed us to onboard teams to on-call fast."
"Thanks to the logs, we manage to make better reports through Jira and also to trace the request with more facility than we would be able to do otherwise."
"It brings in observability, monitoring, and alerting capabilities - all of which we need to operate at scale."
"I find the greatest feature is being able to search across logs from various microservices."
"The infrastructure monitoring capabilities are really valuable. You can just log on and see everything that is happening within an IT environment."
"The setup is not difficult. It was easy."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it. The solution has the ability to build a session, basically. It pulls a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe. It's quite helpful."
"The user interface and the timelines they use are the most valuable features. The price model is very simple so that one can understand it easily and there are no surprises within it."
"The solution's initial setup process is easy."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface."
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology."
"The way it can connect with AWS is very useful, and the integrations are pretty good."
"More pre-configured "Monitor Alerts" would be helpful."
"The real issue with this product is cost control."
"I sometimes log in and see items changed, either in the UI or a feature enabled. To see it for the first time without proper communication can sometimes come as a shock."
"I would love to see support for front-end and mobile applications. Right now, it is mostly all back-end stuff. Being able to do some integration with our front-end products would be awesome."
"I've found that the documentation is lacking in certain regards."
"I'm not sure if Datadog can monitor K8s deployments in real-time. For instance, being able to see a deployment step by step visually. This would be helpful if there were any incidents during the deployment."
"We need more visibility into the error tracking dashboard."
"We need more advanced querying against logs."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"The initial setup of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is complex because it needs to integrate with the SIEM solution, but after this is complete it is straightforward."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that. That's something that they should think about when it comes to customers that have a large volume to start off with."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful."
"They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails."
"The organzation is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate"
