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."Reporting on NetCrunch is pretty good. It's very similar to SolarWinds. It's just a different interface. The majority of everything there was beneficial."
"One of the things I like about it is its interface. When it comes to generating reports on VMs and stuff, it's very quick. This is very handy for the technical team, who need to generate reports quickly. So that's really good."
"Our current costs are too high, and this tool will help us to better optimize our infrastructure."
"One of the most valuable features of vRealize Log Insight is that it gives you a clear forecast about your existing machines, for example, how long your machines could be supported and how long the remaining capacity is to host your machines. This is one of the best options available within vRealize Log Insight. Another valuable feature of the solution is automation. My company deploys a lot of automation when required in a very, very short period, and in a very uniform manner, and even if the automation is being deployed for different processes and departments, it's pretty much the same across the environment, so vRealize Log Insight helps reduce a lot of ambiguities and helps my company manage operational efficiencies well."
"The events are notably more descriptive, aiding in security and event analysis. We've also integrated Sky Collector, providing valuable insights and solutions for troubleshooting."
"The solution's simplicity, flexibility, and extensibility are valuable features as we can integrate everything in vRealize."
"The tool helps my company deal with security and log analysis, which are very important areas for us...It is a scalable solution."
"It gives the customer a quick overview, so they don't have to dig. There's a clear dashboard with many sensors in a single space. He gets a helicopter view of his environment, but he can investigate further if there are serious issues. It's pretty user-friendly."
"What I like is that you can have different storage locations for different applications."
"I didn't care for the role-based, permission-based options, which were not the best."
"The dashboard needs to be improved because this is what I need to monitor my infrastructure."
"The solution isn't user-friendly for admins."
"It's great for VMware, but it would be good if they had third-party logins."
"Log Insight should be better at dealing with audits and security logs. We use another product called QRadar for that."
"The tool is expensive."
"From an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made more user-friendly."
"Paid or free does not matter, but it is complex to find good training material for vRealize Log Insight."
"They should improve their web interface to make it more user-friendly."
