We performed a comparison between Datadog and ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 ability to send notifications based on metadata from the monitor is helpful."
"The ingestion points are unlimited and support customization. We haven't had anything yet that we haven't been able to integrate with it."
"We have been able to set very specific CPU and memory alerts, at the very base level, then we started to pull real business value, like 99th percentile response rates for our API calls."
"The infrastructure monitoring capabilities are really valuable. You can just log on and see everything that is happening within an IT environment."
"For us to have visibility into our app stack and the hardware we run has been highly beneficial."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"Datadog has made it much easier to have a central place for people to look for logs and made it much easier to notify them of any elevated error rates or failures."
"The many dozens of integrations that the solution brings out of the box are excellent."
"It's one of the easiest products. It's very simple to use."
"It is stable."
"The tool's reports show activities."
"The log management has helped to improve my organization."
"ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is easy to gather reports to give to management. My supervisor has access to the solution and he enjoys the graphs."
"The user interface is very good."
"I have made use of technical support and am certainly very satisfied with them."
"What I found most useful in ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is its integration with other ManageEngine applications. It seamlessly integrates throughout the ManageEngine suite, and that's beneficial. I also like that the solution has chain management capabilities, it has a modular approach, and it's easy to reach the support team."
"I would like testing for data in the future."
"At times, it can be hard to generate metrics out of logs."
"One area where I was really looking for improvement was the CSPM product line. I had really wanted to have team-level visibility for findings, since the team managing the resources has much more context and ability to resolve the issue, as the service owner. However, this has been added to the announcement in a recent keynote."
"Datadog is expensive."
"Lately, chat support has a longer waiting time."
"I want to applaud the efforts in making the UI extremely usable and approachable. My suggestion would be to take another look at how the menu structure is put together, however. Even after using the platform mostly every day for months, I still find myself trying to find a service or feature in the menus."
"Stability of the product has been a concern for us outside of the primary monitoring agents."
"More pre-configured "Monitor Alerts" would be helpful."
"The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability."
"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"The first tier of customer service and support is not great."
"The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier."
"It may not be as easy to use as Splunk."
"The scalability is limited."
"I would like to see more detailed reports."
"What I'd like to see as an improvement to ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is for it to be more AI-driven. Having more automation would also make the solution better."
