We performed a comparison between Grafana Loki and Nagios Log Server 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 solution's stability has never been a problem. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine to ten out of ten."
"The tool can be used in multi-cluster environments."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is an open-source tool that is stable and flexible."
"The best feature of Grafana Loki is that it integrates well with our other tool."
"The most valuable feature is the capability to set up alerts, which becomes necessary when we need to receive notifications for specific events."
"I appreciate the capability to process logs from microservices and seamlessly integrate them into Grafana."
"The effectiveness of filters is pivotal for optimizing the search process and extracting the specific information we need from the extensive log data."
"We are using Grafana Loki as a database for real-time metrics."
"A great feature of the solution involves its internal portal."
"One of the most valuable features is the dashboard because the UI was effective and easy to use. The alert systems are good as well. We had no failovers and had high availability. We can search the queries fast as well in Nagios Log Server."
"The product is scalable."
"The initial setup of Nagios Log Server was easy and straightforward."
"It provides an easy way to identify errors and spot issues, making troubleshooting more efficient."
"Enhancing speed could be a game-changer, and while it might vary depending on the application, it's a factor worth exploring."
"There is a need for some change in the alerting types of the product. In short, a few changes in the alert area are needed due to minor shortcomings."
"The product must improve its UI."
"In Grafana Loki, the creation of metrics is not so easy, making it an area that could be made easier."
"The Docker container partition feature needs improvement as they do not reuse the space and goes into a pending state."
"The correlation of requests is not simple in Grafana Loki and can be improved."
"We encountered certain limitations when it came to alerting, particularly when dealing with specific data sources."
"We had a well-structured dashboard with a functional query. However, an issue arose when the Kubernetes pod restarted. The statistics from our Grafana query would reset, dropping to zero and starting anew. This was particularly noticeable with linear graphs, which are expected to show consistent growth."
"It would be beneficial for Nagios to incorporate a tool that goes beyond log management and includes features to monitor overall system health and assess the effectiveness of antivirus solutions."
"The configurations during initial setup could be improved. If they could be agentless, as in the case of the Ansible product, it would be better. I would like to be able to analyze the network bandwidth."
"As we are talking about a product which is open to the public, the pricing makes it challenging for us to profit off of its marketing."
"The support could be better."
"The customization and dashboards have shortcomings and need to be improved to make the tool look more presentable."
