CrowdStrike Observability vs VMware Aria Operations for Logs comparison

"The price is worth it."

"The log aggregation and correlation of data are notable features that enhance our operations."

"The intelligence database provided by CrowdStrike is very impressive."

"In the logs and the trajectory, it shows detailed information about where the source of infection comes from, how it travels, and how to reach there."

"The intelligent alerting feature is excellent and configured on our console, being highly effective as it detects real alerts and just warnings or real issues."

"The intelligence database provided by CrowdStrike is very impressive."

"CrowdStrike Observability is a signature-less solution where you don't need to update your endpoints or the CrowdStrike Observability agents regularly, and it is completely based on AI and ML search engines."

"The best features of CrowdStrike Observability include the way they show issues to the client or agent, and their data collection method is interesting because they use an agent-less approach in some cases, collecting data from infrastructure such as firewalls."

"One of the things I like about it is its interface. When it comes to generating reports on VMs and stuff, it's very quick. This is very handy for the technical team, who need to generate reports quickly. So that's really good."

"The trace log is the solution's most valuable feature. It's very helpful in troubleshooting problems."

"One of the most valuable features of vRealize Log Insight is that it gives you a clear forecast about your existing machines, for example, how long your machines could be supported and how long the remaining capacity is to host your machines. This is one of the best options available within vRealize Log Insight. Another valuable feature of the solution is automation. My company deploys a lot of automation when required in a very, very short period, and in a very uniform manner, and even if the automation is being deployed for different processes and departments, it's pretty much the same across the environment, so vRealize Log Insight helps reduce a lot of ambiguities and helps my company manage operational efficiencies well."

"It is a highly stable solution...It is a highly scalable solution."

"The ability to narrow into a specific time to filter heavy hitters and anomalies is extremely valuable."

"We use the on-premises version of this solution for log analysis and to find details about certain issues."

"The events are notably more descriptive, aiding in security and event analysis. We've also integrated Sky Collector, providing valuable insights and solutions for troubleshooting."

"It is very scalable and can handle a large workload."

"For reporting or log management, having a longer duration for backup without needing to purchase a paid subscription would be beneficial."

"We had some difficulties at the beginning, but at this moment they are improving, so probably in some months I will give them a ten."

"For reporting or log management, having a longer duration for backup without needing to purchase a paid subscription would be beneficial. Currently, there is a default ninety-day backup period."

"Integration with Huawei should be more straightforward."

"The customer service is not satisfactory for me. The support is only available in English, and my users in LATAM regions such as Peru and Colombia require local language support, which is not currently provided."

"The pricing is very high and small companies cannot afford it. They should reduce the price because the backend infrastructure is the same."

"We had some difficulties at the beginning, but at this moment they are improving, so probably in some months I will give them a ten."

"Technical support received a rating of 4 out of 10."

"Documentation is lacking, including some guide as to how to use the expressions. It is not clear how to look for a log, for example. Some examples in the documentation might be helpful. I think that VMware had good documentation, but it's no longer hosted. The documentation is not as easy to understand as it was before."

"Integration with other vendors is something that could be improved, they could add more vendors."

"From an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made more user-friendly."

"In vRealize login files, we have limitations regarding log partitions."

"I think that it should be able to integrate with other third-party backup and recovery solutions, more that it does now."

"The tool is expensive."

"Paid or free does not matter, but it is complex to find good training material for vRealize Log Insight."

"What I'd like to improve in vRealize Log Insight is the licensing model. VMware provides vRealize Log Insight along with the VMware Cloud Foundation, but customers who would like to go for the native VMware would have to procure vRealize Log Insight separately. Today, vRealize Log Insight is offered on two different licenses, one is based on the number of VMs, and the other is based on the number of physical codes on the machine. If VMware can provide a bundle offer for customers who procure more than ten licenses, where you can have an option to run, for example, three hundred machines on vRealize Log Insight with no extra cost, this would encourage more people to adopt the solution. What I'd like to see in the next release of vRealize Log Insight is for a cloud option to be available, which would be a pay-as-you-go licensing model that would allow me to pick and choose what I'll monitor. For example, I have one thousand and three hundred critical servers, and the seven hundred servers for basic development, I don't want to monitor on vRealize Log Insight today, so I should be able to pick what I need to monitor on the solution and only pay for that specific instance. If VMware can apply these changes, it would help VMware customers to procure more or adopt more of vRealize Log Insight even in smaller projects."

"I think it is a reasonably priced product."

"The pricing has been updated recently."

"I am not sure what the exact cost is. However, I believe the vRealize suite costs $2,500.00 per year."

"The license cost for any other monitoring tool is too high compared to this product."

"Pricing could always be lower. If it were free, I would be more satisfied."

"The product's price is reasonable, but when it comes to SQL licensing, it's a bit expensive."

"I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"It is not cheap. But it is worth it."
