Software Engineer
I would rate it around eight or nine.
Software Analyst at CLSA
 

Room For Improvement

Coralogix users seek better cost management, AI integration, simpler interfaces, dashboard customization, and improved support for various technical features.
Redpanda requires better documentation, clustering, hardware support, and improved tools for integration, debugging, and connector options.
Coralogix already provides strong capabilities for centralized logging and monitoring, but enhancing these areas would make it even more efficient for large-scale environments in our telecom servers.
Technical Solution Support Development Engineer at Ericsson Global
We require some form of grouping or categorization of logs to identify them better.
SDE II at Nutanix
Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions.
Engineering Manager at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
It needs better modern hardware with a better CPU, not just a normal CPU. A server-grade CPU is required.
Co Founder & CEO at SaYukth Private Limited
The biggest scalability improvement could be the retention.
Data Engineer at Datacrop
I think for the connectors, they are still young, so they need to enhance the connectors with anything such as MongoDB, cloud, big data, Elasticsearch, Datadog, Splunk, MySQL, databases, SGBDR, flat file, anything.
Middleware Tech Lead at MQnovaTool
 

Setup Cost

Coralogix offers flexible usage-based pricing with costs from $400-$5,000, emphasizing scalability and cost management for enterprises.
Redpanda provides a cost-effective alternative to Kafka, offering free versions and straightforward setup, with paid support options.
Despite the expense, I believe it is worth the money to have Coralogix as a tool.
SDE II at Nutanix
Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage.
Engineering Manager at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
It is charged based on what we store.
Presales Engineer at Crayon AS
In terms of pricing, Redpanda is free.
Co Founder & CEO at SaYukth Private Limited
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Redpanda is that it is straightforward with fast deployment.

Featured Reviews

Arka Sarkar - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Solution Support Development Engineer at Ericsson Global
Centralized monitoring has transformed telecom troubleshooting and now reduces downtime proactively
Coralogix works well for our needs, but there are a few areas where improvements can be made. One area is querying performance for large-scale data sets. When we are dealing with very high log volumes, some complex queries take time to return results. Improving query speed and optimization would enhance the troubleshooting experience. Another point is the learning curve for advanced features. While basic usage is straightforward, advanced querying and dashboard configurations can take time for new users we are onboarding. We have faced this situation in our organization's domain frequently. More simplified UI options or guided templates would help new team members onboard faster. Additionally, dashboard customization flexibility needs improvement. Although dashboards are useful, having more flexibility in customization would make them even more powerful. An important point is cost optimization. Since log volume is high in our environment, better visibility and control over cost optimization would be beneficial. These are minor improvements overall. Coralogix already provides strong capabilities for centralized logging and monitoring, but enhancing these areas would make it even more efficient for large-scale environments in our telecom servers. Improvements could include query performance, alert noise reduction, and ease of use for advanced features, especially for large-scale environments like ours.

Event streaming has simplified video data cleanup and now powers real-time analytics
One area for improvement is providing more examples. For instance, Redpanda could be more useful as a sink where you get the data and can directly push to S3. While this is possible through the API, there are better and faster ways to do it. You can make a million API calls and accomplish the task in one and a half hours, but the same thing can be done in ten minutes through other methods. These faster approaches are not documented in obvious places. You have to find information scattered across various blogs. Redpanda should collect all the good blogs and best practices and put them in their documentation. This is more about knowledge management and making it easy for users to understand the product for complex use cases. For simple use cases, it is straightforward. We all use the basic pipe functionality. However, providing more examples would be useful. For example, integration with AWS and the AWS ecosystem would be cool.
