Efficient monitoring and alerting enhance operational insights
With Grafana Enterprise Stack, we can identify issues that New Relic cannot help with. While New Relic requires purchase and supports frontend and backend components, Grafana Enterprise Stack helps identify where issues are occurring. When we need to deep dive into issues, we use New Relic to trace transactions and determine where maximum impact occurs, whether in core size, DB side, or frontend components that slow performance. We first evaluate with Grafana Enterprise Stack, then move to New Relic if we identify performance degradation, such as DB queries taking too much time. Grafana Enterprise Stack responds to queries within 6 to 12 hours. They contact users through email immediately when available. Similarly, New Relic follows the same pattern, responding immediately when requests are raised and resolving issues promptly.

Offers comprehensive monitoring and tool consolidation but integration complexity needs improvement
There is room for improvement in the speed of setting up the service and integrating PowerPacks. Although these prebuilt features are great, there is considerable complexity in bringing them together to create a unified dashboard. Even with many good integrations and deep visibility, the implementation takes time, especially when it doesn't involve these integrations. While some other companies have easier APIs, using this solution demands significant expertise. It's challenging for new customers to implement independently. The implementation speed of non-PowerPack or non-out-of-the-box integrations should be improved. Additionally, the AI automation feature is not yet very rich due to resource constraints supporting a wide platform.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features for us are dashboards; we can dashboard anything that we can think of, we can dashboard and measure."
"Grafana's full observability stack, known as LGTM, is highly valuable."
"The ability to graph actual, live, or on-the-fly activity is valuable; it is an added value to work with Grafana Enterprise Stack and to display results or logs, which are huge in nature, in graphical characters."
"Our productivity has improved with its use."
"Grafana Enterprise Stack is a powerful open-source platform with robust capabilities in data visualizations, dashboard creations, and alerting."
"The dashboards are pretty good."
"The tool's most valuable feature is real-time monitoring. It helps in securing the application or the node by allowing us to monitor and manage resource consumption during peak times. For instance, from 10 AM to 2 PM, we may experience high memory utilization. It helps us to solve these issues."
"It is very easy to deploy and integrate with any application or infrastructure layer."
"The power flow is great."
"ScienceLogic was good at proactively identifying problems and could turn a 45-minute outage into a 20-minute outage or even catch early warning signs and solve issues in advance."
"A major benefit is eliminating visibility gaps, which motivates me to consolidate tools."
"The support's been fantastic."
"ScienceLogic is an excellent all around suite of tools."
"It is simple."
"The flexibility to support most technologies. The way ScienceLogic gathers data from multiple sources is vital to our customers. As we work with new customers (often with different technology requirements), ScienceLogic is flexible enough to support our clients’ varying network needs."
"I have thought long and hard about the following statement but if I had to setup another shop all over again EM7 would be the first tool I would fire up #truestory."
 

Cons

"They could use more small tutorials to explain a bit about how Grafana works."
"I find Grafana really hard to configure. It's difficult to build the dashboard, and it's non-intuitive. In my opinion, it's very difficult to work with Grafana."
"If Grafana Enterprise Stack could display transaction queries in dashboard format similar to New Relic, it would provide more options and capabilities for users."
"The connection between metrics, logs, and traces could be improved."
"The solution should include integration with Power BI."
"In terms of what Grafana provides, it just provides the charting tools. Everything else is third-party."
"I have encountered occasional issues with false inputs or incorrect data in Grafana."
"Integrating AI capabilities for automated self-healing and reduced manual interventions would be valuable."
"Admins do not have direct access to the reporting."
"The product's reporting functionalities have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"If I were a small to medium business, I probably wouldn't choose this provider. It is a heavily configurable, heavyweight, and scalable IT solution for IT infrastructure monitoring."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."
"ScienceLogic could improve the implementation, it could be made easier."
"There are often bugs in new releases."
"Simplified Interface - ScienceLogic can be a bit overwhelming when you begin working with it."
"They should improve database issues in HA and Failover mode, and provide documentation for all users , even if they are not customers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I use the tool's free license."
"The solution is license-based. It's between $8 and $15, depending on what you need from the product."
"It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
"The license of ScienceLogic is based on how many endpoints are used. The number of monitoring points you want to have."
"I'm not the best person to discuss pricing, but what I do know is that it's a use-and-go structure. You use this much storage and pay this much for it. That's how it is. Every time, we continue to add a large amount of data to the environment."
"Decide what you want to monitor and only monitor those items. Absorb other elements as you grow."
"Pricing between the two is quiet large therefore you can save some money if you don't require to collect all info on each device."
"The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
"My company has an enterprise-level contract with ScienceLogic, so it is available to my organization at a good price."
