Centralized monitoring has improved real-time issue tracking and reduced root cause analysis time
One of the best features that Coralogix offers is that it is integration friendly. I can seamlessly work with different cloud providers including AWS, Azure, and GCP. I can monitor Kubernetes or Docker platforms as well, and I can integrate with the DevOps chain including Jenkins and all infrastructure code, Terraform, or Ansible. Coralogix has positively impacted my organization by providing a centralized console to monitor the dashboard, giving me rich flexibility to see different sorts of data that is spread across the logs, metrics, or traces, which are the typical pillars of the observability tool. I have the interface where I can use the drag-and-drop feature, and I can create different types of charts. Mainly, I have the line charts and time series ones that I generally use in many use cases, gauges, tables, pie charts, or markdown widgets. These are the ones generically available, and I can switch between the visualization types. I am getting the underlying query in that and can import and export dashboards built upon the JSON format. I can have my own APIs integrated with my dashboards as well, such as with Terraform, which is useful for scaling across my environments. Regarding root cause analysis, mainly what I can do is correlate across all of the layers because the main logs that I work on are storage-related, including CIFS, NFS, SAN traffic, and the metrics including storage, throughput, or VM resource usage. Being able to view logs, metrics, or traces available, I get all of these in one place, and I can do root cause analysis much quicker.

Helps us detect cyber threats quickly and integrate multiple feeds effectively
Overall, the product is good, but when it comes to some infrastructure issues, we have to dig into more logs. There is no straightforward indication of an issue. Health check kind of dashboards are not available. More AI would help us, and more optimization, since security products run more queries. The AI module could suggest solutions, optimizing queries or workload balancing. If the product itself advises on running queries during peak times, it would be similar to what ChatGPT currently offers. We see quite a few issues on stability. Even last week, we faced something, and identifying bottlenecks is not easy. We need more SMEs, and there is no mechanism to tell us about indexer or search head issues. Self-monitoring dashboards could be beneficial. The technical support still requires more improvement. Often, primary support takes a lot of time and forwards most solutions to the engineering side. The primary support team has very limited knowledge to provide.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In my experience, the best feature Coralogix offers is that the dashboard is pretty good."
"The overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."
"Coralogix has positively impacted my organization by providing a centralized console to monitor the dashboard, giving me rich flexibility to see different sorts of data that is spread across the logs, metrics, or traces, which are the typical pillars of the observability tool."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"Splunk Enterprise Security performs 80% of our work on its own; we just have to do the remaining 20%, which gives us the freedom to explore and detect threats more effectively."
"The dashboard and reporting are very good... It provides very good visibility in a hybrid cloud environment, and you can build custom utilization APIs using Splunk."
"Splunk Enterprise Security helps my SOC team prioritize and investigate high-fidelity alerts more effectively by enabling us to quickly gather information, collaborate, and provide various teams with access to the same information, allowing them to follow the workflow to complete the task."
"Splunk has significantly reduced the time in performing the task of aggregating logs, reviewing as well as time spent during investigations."
"Splunk Enterprise Security has helped speed up our security investigations."
"The tool helps with advanced reports and keeps the system scalable and flexible. It provides a clear picture of the current status of any incidents. As a CISO, I see a lot of potential for future innovation, which is interesting. I've noticed better performance, especially with the reports."
"It provides a lot of analytics with the underlying AI engine, and it is a lot easier than other solutions. There are some products that do automated AI-based detection and drawing up charts, but for network monitoring and all of the monitoring aspects, it is quite a nice tool. It is very convenient for business users because they get more or less a lot of data readily available. If you're familiar with the Splunk query language, you can pretty much do whatever you want."
"Capability to expand the functionality through custom code for data inputs, commands, visualization, alerts, and machine learning."
 

Cons

"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."
"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"Splunk could enhance its services by providing more comprehensive professional assistance aimed at optimizing our investment."
"My organization does not completely utilize risk-based alerting in Splunk Enterprise Security as it's not fully mature."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive."
"It can be tough to determine if you are getting all of the value out of your investment at times."
"Many of my clients want to get better at Splunk, but they're afraid of using the tool because they feel it's too complex for them."
"Splunk Enterprise Security has not helped reduce our alert volume."
"There is another new term called benign positives. It is better to clearly identify each definition of those terms since it has not been popular in the industry, and everyone needs to be aware of those things."
"If you have to do your own stuff, such as customized charts, it is a little bit more work, but once you're familiar with the Splunk query language, you can pretty much do whatever you want. In terms of features, it should probably have the features that other competitors provide."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"ROI is estimated at saving my team roughly 10 to 12 man hours per week in troubleshooting for our company as well as what our profits had been from our services of installing, configuring, and supporting other clients with the product."
"The pricing modules could be improved."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is priced lower than competitors."
"I think that most of the monitoring solutions are expensive."
"Most people share the same thought that the ingestion rates can get pretty pricey. There is a lot of work we do to curate the data that we send to Splunk so that it is not too noisy or too expensive."
"Splunk Enterprise Security's pricing is pretty competitive."
"It is not cheap."
"I have no opinion on pricing."
