Coralogix Reviews

We use the tracing service from Coralogix mainly to store logs.

The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces.

The documentation of the tool could be improved. The amount of data the system can process at one time is not that high. In a future release, it would be great to have an easier way to manipulate data that has already been ingested. It could also be more user-friendly.

I have been using this solution for a year and a half. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten for stability.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten for customer support.

Positive

The initial setup is easy and only took a couple of hours. 

The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested.

Coralogix is an Israeli startup so the headquarters of the company is in Israel. I believe it was easier for our company to find a company in Israel.

If a company has the budget and the log service is critical for them, I would say use Coralogix. It is a very good service for that.

I would rate Coralogix an eight out of ten. It is an excellent service for storing logs for a long time. The capacity is unlimited for unindexed logs. The cost model is also very efficient because you pay for the ingested data per month. This can be compared to a solution like New Relic where you have to pay it upfront and cannot limit the data ingestion. 

Coralogix provides an easy way to search for logs and to visualize them. This a great feature because developers are constantly looking for or browsing logs.

We primarily use it for metrics and reports.

It's been absolutely brilliant, I would say. It’s so easy to use and the UI and look and feel are great.

A non-tech person can easily get used to it. Obviously, a tech person finds it more useful and more helpful. However, even for analysts, or maybe some business person who just wants to see some metrics or reports, it is also helpful for them. It's pretty easy, quite useful.

The extensiveness of how we can drill down deeply into each and every index, each and every metric, is quite helpful. The drilling down and the detailed processes are aspects that I really like.

I couldn't find anything lacking. It's pretty much perfectly put together. From my side, I don't have any notes as of now for any improvements.

Maybe they could make it more user-friendly. Errors should be shown in terms of text.

I’ve used the solution for more than two years.

The solution is stable. There are no bugs or glitches. Its performance is good and it is reliable. It doesn’t crash or freeze.

We have 600 to 700 people using the solution currently. It's mainly for the engineering department; for example, back-end engineering uses it a lot.

You can scale it up to as much as you need. They have their hard limit of one billion records, as an example; however, if you want to scale it, you can scale it quickly. There is no external effort you need to put in.

We likely won’t increase usage. We are pretty much okay with the users and the older system we have right now. We are already using it extensively for our alerting and reporting systems and everything.

Technical support is fantastic. They are happy to come on a Zoom call, or a required Teams call, or whatever. They can help you one-on-one. They have chat support systems, yet they are happy to get on the call at any time. I really appreciate their effort in that sense.

Before this, we were using Sumo Logic. It's in line with CoreLogix, however, CoreLogix is much better than them. They have more options and the UI is also easy to use.

The initial setup was straightforward. They have their own dedicated person who will help you if you need any help. The support team has their chat system as well. They have their live chat that can help you if you need them. It's pretty easy to use. You just you have to install one agent, and then it's pretty smooth from there.

The deployment itself hardly took a couple of hours.

They have their own team, if you need their help, they can help you.

I'm more often on the technical side. Licensing is done by the business team and then the legal team. I don't have any idea what the costs are.

We are just end users.

I'm using the latest version of the product. They recently made changes in their UI almost six months ago. I'm using the latest version only.

Its deployment is basically third parties services. They have their own setup. They will create your account, and then you go there.

I’d recommend the solution to others. It'll be definitely easier for debugging, error tracking, reporting, and all those other tasks. It will definitely help.

I’d rate the solution nine out of ten.

Our primary use case for the solution is pushing logs so we can find the log there or provide it as a self-service to the developers, and developers can see logs and what's going on. So mostly the standard debugging use case.

The ability to view is valuable. We can view the logs that are currently available for a few days.

The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory. Additionally, more advanced functionalities can be included in the next release.

We have been using the solution for approximately one year and are currently using the cloud version.

The solution is stable.

The solution is not scalable because it is very expensive if you scale it up too much. Hence, it is very limiting to use. Currently, 25 people in our organization are using the solution.

We do not have experience with customer service and support.

The initial setup is straightforward.

The pricing depends on our requirements. If you're going to use the bare minimum, then the pricing is quite cheap and is a good start for many companies. However, if you're going to do it full-scale and have 30 months of data, then the solution may not be the best fit.

I rate the solution a six out of ten. The solution is good, but the user interface can be improved. The solution is easy to use and to start with, but it does not measure up to the more complex things. 

The solution is mostly used for basic log monitoring, the sync of logs, log analyzing, log collection, et cetera.

Probably in comparison with other stuff like ELK and other sources, it's the best experience. Like Graylog, it's the best experience that they have had related to logs.

The solution offers very good convenience filtering.

You can group logs just from UI without writing any irregular expression, you just clear, make it two clicks, and they're automatically grouping. You can analyze the amount of work. For example, the alerting system is excellent. That provides different types of alerts, including the number of logs, time analyzing, comparing a previous period, et cetera.

It offers good documentation.

The setup is easy.

Support is helpful and responsive.

From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers. For sure, it should be improved with the Terraform provider.

I’ve used the solution for one and a half years.

The solution is stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn’t crash or freeze.

In our cluster, it's up to a few thousand ports and steelwork collection working correctly. The scale there is good. I don't know much about really high scales. There are thousands of containers, however, on my scale, it's working properly.

We have up to 100 people, which include some staff monitors, that are using it all the time.

Support is great. They are helpful and responsive.

They are the greatest support team that I ever worked with, especially in comparison with AWS support’s premium tier and the Coralogix premium tier. Coralogix is a few times better than even AWS support.

You can compare this solution with Graylog and ELK. However, those are open-source solutions, so they're non-comfortable and require a lot of customization and knowledge from people who are working with them. You need to be able to write proper code so that not all people like it. Maybe New Relic Logs Collection is similar. The most crucial difference is that the New Relic solution requires more completion power from the backend.

It's basically straightforward to set up. The documentation is quite good and very helpful during the process. The support is there to assist as well.

I’m not sure how long ht deployment took. It's hard to say from my side as I'm more from the perspective of the SRE team, and it was deployed by developers, however, they know that it's quite a fast procedure.

I'm not familiar with pricing.

I’m a customer and en-user.

We’re likely using the latest version of the solution. We get all of the updates.

I’d advise potential new users to try to find some optimization solution that wouldn't involve Terraform provider of Coralogix, since it's too difficult to use and almost impossible to maintain. Also, write proper logs since the amount of quota is strictly limited. If your logs are collecting something like user ID, it'll quickly use all the quota, and you should ask for an additional quota or go for an upper tier.

I’d rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Coralogix is a next-generation log analysis engine.

This is a relatively new product but it's been easy to deploy and shows lots of value on our environment.

Coralogix saves us the need to actively tune and dig deep into our logs, which is something we have to do with other log management solutions. It's a genuine time saver due to its smart capabilities

As a relatively new product, there are some rough edges yet and your mileage may vary. I still give it a 10/10 though.

No issues detected so far.

There's some roughness around the edges.

It's above and beyond what I would expect.

It was extremely quick.

We're using the free plan.
