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 most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is an open-source tool that is stable and flexible."
"The solution's stability has never been a problem. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine to ten out of ten."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Grafana Loki is the dashboards which are really simple to create."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the tool's GUI. The solution's GUI is very user-friendly."
"Loki also utilizes the same service discovery mechanism as used by Prometheus. So, whatever labeled metadata you see in Prometheus, you have the exact same metadata in the Loki system. Given this level of intricacy and the attempt to address these challenges, I firmly believe that Loki deserves praise for the work."
"The most valuable feature is the capability to set up alerts, which becomes necessary when we need to receive notifications for specific events."
"The most valuable feature is the hunting ability to work in a CERT."
"The software is scalable to whatever is required, and you can also put a lot of resources in the cloud."
"The most valuable feature is the security that it provides."
"Performance and reporting are very good."
"It's quite economical compared to other solutions in the market."
"Offers a good wireless feature."
"The most valuable feature is the correlation. It can report in real-time and monitor the management."
"The product has a user-friendly interface and a valuable feature for threat intelligence integration."
"Visualization-wise, Grafana Loki's dashboard looks a little outdated compared to other open-source visualization tools like Chronograf."
"The correlation of requests is not simple in Grafana Loki and can be improved."
"The Docker container partition feature needs improvement as they do not reuse the space and goes into a pending state."
"The solution's scalability depends on the team managing the Grafana instance."
"The product must improve its UI."
"Enhancing speed could be a game-changer, and while it might vary depending on the application, it's a factor worth exploring."
"We encountered certain limitations when it came to alerting, particularly when dealing with specific data sources."
"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."
"Technical support could be improved."
"I believe that integrating the solution with other products such as Oracle would be beneficial."
"Its technical support could be better."
"The solution should have more integration capabilities with different platforms."
"An area for improvement would be better automation and more inbuilt use cases."
"Sometimes, it gives me static when integrating Windows-based systems. It should produce a precise log of sorts as to where the problem is. For example, a few days ago because of the McAfee application firewall, I couldn't get access to the particular Windows machine. So, my team and I had to figure out by ourselves that there was a virus responsible for the obstacle. This solution should trigger a meaningful log or message indicating the reason the user or implementer can't get into the machine."
"It is not so easy to customize this product."
"The implementation needs assistance."
