Featured Reviews

WilsonAitan - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers a single dashboard with customizable features and a cost-effective pricing structure
Sumo Logic Security offers a single dashboard and customization, which are the most valuable features. Additionally, it has a cost-effective structure because it is based on data storage and the number of scans, rather than uploading data. This cost model impacts the customers positively by offering a more straightforward pricing structure.
VikramSingh8 - PeerSpot reviewer
Automation simplifies workflows with no code and excellent support
Reporting and dashboards could be more advanced for deeper analysis. Tines has its own dashboard, which displays information like how many stories have been created and how many automations have taken place. However, the reporting and dashboard are not advanced; they are quite basic, with fewer customizable options. The look and feel of the dashboard could be enhanced. Another area for improvement is in terms of documentation, as every tool and company has its own knowledge base.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It gives us a bird's eye view of what's happening from our connection's point of view."
"Sumo Logic is an easy solution to use. You can set it up very quickly, and it includes a lot of training videos."
"Scalability has been good for our needs. We haven't run into any scaling issues in regards to size so far."
"We can ingest logs and make reports out of them. It is a good tool which can help us monitor any issues."
"It helps a lot because we can troubleshoot issues pretty easily."
"The most valuable features of Sumo Logic Security are the rules, use cases, and ease of use. Additionally, the integration is straightforward and good GUI."
"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."
"The features I found valuable with the Sumo Logic Security solution are the search option and the ability to customize the search for the information in the logs."
"One of the most valuable features is that it’s a low-code solution."
"The best thing is that it's no code, so it doesn't require coding knowledge."
"The best advantage is the no-code automation, excellent customer support services, and ease of integration with other tools."
"The tool was vendor-neutral."
 

Cons

"It took a bit of trial and error to get it set up correctly based on everything we had to do. In the end, we had to send everything over HTTP, which was sort of a stop-gap."
"If you want to up your subscription through the AWS Marketplace, it can be difficult. You can't just go back to the AWS Marketplace, and say, "I want a bigger one now." You have to contact the sales team, then they do it on the back-end. This could definitely be improved."
"Sumo Logic needs to make sure integrating solutions are seamless."
"We would like to have some type of predefined setup for the logs, making the setup easier by default."
"In my opinion, this solution has a steep learning curve and requires practice if users to be able to use this tool very efficiently."
"The solution should improve its UI."
"Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
"We would like the ability to drill down into a dashboard and get into deeper levels."
"Tines was a little bit more expensive than Torq."
"Reporting and dashboards could be more advanced for deeper analysis."
"Maybe Tines can add more features and demonstrations, like videos on how to use the features within the tool."
"They started implementing some AI, and their AI is isolated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The AWS Marketplace pricing is fairly reasonable for what it does. I wouldn't call it expensive, but I wouldn't call it cheap. It is pretty good."
"The pricing is good. It's not an issue for us."
"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."
"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."
"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 product is costly."
"The only limit to the scalability of the product for us is how much we are willing to pay."
"Pricing has been cheaper than some of the competing tools, like Splunk."
