Featured Reviews

Vinay Lal - PeerSpot reviewer
Head of Testing & AVP at Flash AI
Distributed tracing has transformed our testing workflows and now uncovers hidden failures fast
The best features Lumigo offers include the live stream architecture and transaction mapping, which helps to automatically generate and update the visual execution topology for every single test transaction. After seeing the exact flow from the edge API through intermediate queues and containerized microservices down to managed storage, it gives our QA engineers instant context. Additionally, I love the request-response payload inspection feature, which captures input and output parameters, request headers, and invocation payload safely. When an automated integration test fails, the exact offending payload is visible right inside the trace, helping to save our QA and engineering teams a lot of time, leading to at least a 48.33% drop in wasted time previously spent finding the root cause. With automation saved, automated root cause correlation has helped to correlate logs, metrics, and trace spans across asynchronous boundaries, which is notoriously difficult to debug in event-driven AI pipelines. The live stream architecture and transaction mapping make such a difference for my team, as it generates updates regularly via visual execution and the topology for every single test transaction, providing us with a view through intermediate queues and microservices to managed storage, giving engineers instant context of transactions and payloads, which saves at least 49% of our time and allows overall resources to be used more effectively. Regarding Lumigo's AI capabilities, I find the governance of security to be really good, and we have seen a positive impact due to the AI capabilities alongside strict compliance regulations such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001, proving it is compliant with applicable regulations and policies. Lumigo's accuracy is close to 100%, making it very reliable. Lumigo integrates seamlessly with other AWS services we use, and we have not faced any issues.
