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.

Efficient monitoring with detailed customization, yet complexity remains
The best feature of WhatsUp Gold is the automatic generation of topology and its integration with virtualization and wireless. I have used the automated device discovery with this topology feature. The interactive map feature helps me manage the topology because sometimes we cannot draw the topology correctly, so we need to manually edit the connections. The alerting system is very tunable and customizable, but it's a little complicated to use. Many customers cannot manage it by themselves and need support from us, the provider. We always use the dashboards in the SOC, where we constantly display a dashboard or multiple dashboards. This allows us to know immediately if the connection or bandwidth is full or if the connection is broken.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"Others looking into using Coralogix can trust it and can adopt it because it is good enough to use, with costs also being less than competitors."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"The overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."
"Using Coralogix has significantly improved the efficiency and structure of my daily work, especially in monitoring and troubleshooting."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"In my experience, the best feature Coralogix offers is that the dashboard is pretty good."
"We've been using it for many years and we use it typically for early warning, as it notifies customers of problems prior to failure."
"Our local support team provides excellent service."
"There is a flow monitor option, so we can trace the source IP, the destination IP, and top talker feature in this."
"The threshold alerting is the most valuable feature."
"The installation and configuration process are easy."
"The most valuable features are network bandwidth monitoring and monitoring device health."
"The documentation is very good."
"The most important features of WhatsUp Gold are the server health and uptime it provides. Additionally, WhatsUp Gold is a Windows-based solution which is a benefit."
 

Cons

"Coralogix's dashboard and search capabilities do not help me in any particular way."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"In terms of documentation, I think there can be more user-friendly documentation that stresses more on day-to-day issues."
"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"I think Coralogix can be improved by setting up some AI type of tool inside it which can help new users."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"Coralogix works well for our needs, but there are a few areas where improvements can be made."
"Coralogix can be improved by cleaning up the UI, as it is too cluttered. If the search speed could also be improved, that would be helpful."
"The technical support does not bother to respond."
"The new release cadence needs to be improved. It takes a while for them to add new features and functionality. There should be a quicker turnaround with new versions."
"I think there are a few bugs now. Although they give some resolution for this, we cannot share the network remotely because of our company policy."
"We can never achieve or get a good picture of the network topology."
"One of the biggest things that made us start to look at another product is we're not able to have an end to end monitoring from a user perspective throughout the system and back to the user. All the monitoring is from inside out, we need something that also can give us from outside in."
"Honestly, I do not particularly like WhatsUp Gold. I think we should get rid of it."
"Pricing is too high relative to how many devices we use. The price list is not linear to number of devices."
"I would like to see better integration with switches so that you can see what is connected to each port, what the traffic is, and have a network map automatically generated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"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."
"This is a well priced solution."
"There are some subscription charges that are quite heavy. I need to pay for support every year and these charges can be quite expensive. Aside from the initial cost for the tool, you need to pay additionally for support."
"The tool's price is reasonable. WhatsUp Gold is cheaper than SolarWinds."
"Pricing is reasonable compared to other products."
"There is a license needed to use WhatsUp Gold."
"The choice of version depends on the number of points, or devices, that you want to monitor, and this makes the product expensive."
"The most valuable feature is the cost compared to other solutions."
"It is per device, per year. The pricing is very clear. If you have a service agreement, you get all of your major upgrades and minor upgrades. It was under $10,000 to go all-in with all of the different add-ons for it."
