Has good filtering and rating features and helps with resource and load management

I've not used Stackify for a while, and I'm currently using a solution now that's not as good as Stackify. Among the solutions I've been using so far, Stackify has been one of the best for me, but there's always room for improvement. For example, I don't know if it's just me, but when I try to get the log from Stackify, sometimes it doesn't appear in real-time. It takes a few minutes before the logs appear. When I redeploy my solution and the application starts, I don't see the logs immediately, and it would take two to three minutes before I see the logs. I don't know if other customers have a similar experience. It's the wait time for the logs to appear that's a concern for me, could be improved, and is what the Stackify team should be looking into. In terms of any additional feature that I'd like added to the solution, I'm not sure if Stackify has a way to export logs out. I've been trying to do it. On the solution, you can click on a spiral-like icon and it shows you the entire error, and I'd prefer an export button that would let me download the error and save that into a text file, for example, so it'll be available on my local machine for me to reference it, especially because the log keeps going and as you're using the solution, the system keeps pushing messages on to Stackify, so if I'm looking at a particular error at 12:05 PM, for example, by the time I go back to my system and would like to revisit the error at 12:25 PM, on Stackify, the logs would have gone past that level and I won't see it again which makes it difficult. When you now go back to that timestamp, you don't tend to see it immediately, but if the solution had an export feature for me to save that particular error information on my local machine for reference at a later time, I won't have to go back to Stackify. I just go to that log, specifically to that particular export that I've received on my local machine. I can get it and review it, and it would be easier that way versus me going back to Stackify to find that particular error and request that particular information.

Security insights have enabled faster incident response and streamlined cross-team collaboration

To improve Sumo Logic Security, I would appreciate the tool being easier to use from a search perspective. For example, we have a few teams that want to use the tool itself, but they are not as savvy when it comes to creating searches from the core platform. I understand that Mobot has come out and is in the works, and it really does assist non-savvy users when it comes to querying the platform. As far as that is concerned, I wish that could be improved a bit more, but I do know that that is in the works. I would add that I wish for improved documentation. For example, we are using Sumo Playbooks and automation integrations along with that, but I have found that there has been a lack of documentation, very little to none at all when it comes to that. With regards to automation integrations as well, there are very few details included in them. I would also appreciate the AWS automation integrations to be more secure because currently, they are using access keys, which involves a user rather than roles, which is the security best practice recommended by AWS. I chose eight out of ten because to make it a nine or ten, I would lean heavily on the documentation. A lot of the times when we get around to configuring things such as playbooks or trying to understand playbooks, what I found was that documentation sometimes is not up to date or documentation is lacking. There are instances also where some security best practices are not being followed. So, if we are able to set up an integration that is not only secure, following security best practices, and has complete documentation, I believe it would alleviate the issue of having to go back and forth with support to check the documentation and things of that nature. My impression of the built-in threat intelligence feature in Sumo Logic Security is that it is comprehensive, but I would say that it could do a little bit better. For example, we have the TAXI feeds, which is STIX and TAXI integrated into the core platform, but the issue I am running into is that I am able to use that feed into a CSE alert; however, I am not able to see the contents of that feed. If I integrate CISA, which we do have integrated, I cannot see what IOCs are in that feed in the core platform, and I hope that is the case because, in order for us to better tune our alerts, we need to be able to see what is in the contents of that threat intelligence feed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What stood out to us were the metrics and granular details we received."

"My advice to anyone who wants to use Stackify is to go for it because my experience with it is good."

"The solution is stable and reliable."

"The deployment is very fast."

"Within few hours of install we've identify the source of issue we've been investigating for few days and couldn't pin point."

"It is very simple and very easy to configure."

"The performance dashboard and the accurate level of details are beneficial."

"We switched from New Relic and Loggly as it provides us more info at a lower price."

More Stackify pros

"The Log Analytics platform is the most effective. If we cannot find the data in other tools, like email security or NDR, we can fetch those logs in the Log Analytics platform of Sumo Logic."

"As a cloud-native SIEM, it scales up very well automatically, and real-time threat detection is available, so detection time has dropped significantly from three to four hours to under 30 minutes, reducing alert fatigue by over 100 days of low-volume alerts and significantly improving our KPIs, alert efficiency, decision quality, and operational stability."

"My SOC analysts were crushed under Splunk, but Sumo has actually eased the workload and made it tolerable for three people."

"I would recommend Sumo Logic; it is easy to use, the culture at Sumo Logic seems to be developer focused, the product is good, the developers are able to use it to get their job done quickly and easily, it fits into the developer's workload, the support is excellent, and we use it in both AWS and on-premise where it tends to work the same in both cases."

"Sumo Logic is an easy solution to use. You can set it up very quickly, and it includes a lot of training videos."

"The tool has key features like operability. It will alert the admins whenever a device is onboarded."

"I have no concerns about the stability of the product, and I feel it handles the stress we put on it very well."

"Sumo Logic Security offers a single dashboard and customization, which are the most valuable features."

More Sumo Logic Security pros

Cons

"It should be easily scalable and configurable in different instances."

"When I redeploy my solution and the application starts, I don't see the logs immediately, and it would take two to three minutes before I see the logs."

"Better mobile support."

"One thing that happens as a new user on Stackify is when you install the agent it pulls everything and if you're not careful, your log allowance will just be exhausted as you are actually pulling too much data."

"I've not used Stackify for a while, and I'm currently using a solution now that's not as good as Stackify. Among the solutions I've been using so far, Stackify has been one of the best for me, but there's always room for improvement.

"The search feature could be improved."

"I would like to be able to see metrics about individual running containers on the host machines."

"I'm looking to see more performance tools, but heard that they are going to release some."

More Stackify cons

"The integration with multiple sources could be better."

"If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see."

"The solution should improve its UI."

"We would like to have some type of predefined setup for the logs, making the setup easier by default."

"We would like the ability to drill down into a dashboard and get into deeper levels."

"There needs to be improvement on imported data which can be used within Sumo Logic to do more advanced queries."

"The pricing could be more competitive. Sumo Logic bills based on the amount of data that you ingest into their platform."

"In terms of improvement, feedback indicates there is a need for a local data center in my country. This is crucial to sell to the government and financial sectors as they require data retention within each country."

More Sumo Logic Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is variable. It depends on how much data we have received in that particular month. Usually, it goes up to $2,000, or, at times, $3,000 USD per month."

"We chose to go through the AWS Marketplace because it makes it a lot easier when we bill our customers. Rather than having to get multiple different sources of information then correlate a monthly bill for our customers, it is just included in the AWS usage charges."

"I don't pay the bill. I've heard the AWS Marketplace pricing is high, but I like the value."

"The license pricing model is based on the events that are processed through the solution."

"The pricing is a little high, but for the features that we receive from Sumo Logic, it suits the price. For some small organizations, the price might be a little high."

"The AWS Marketplace pricing is borderline. Every annual renewal, we always contemplate if we are getting what we think we could out of it or could we do it cheaper with some other product."

"Purchasing Sumo Logic through the AWS Marketplace was a simple step."

"Purchasing the solution through the AWS Marketplace is very easy."

"Pricing has been cheaper than some of the competing tools, like Splunk."
