The centralized logging capabilities of Elastic Stack have helped me streamline my logging processes significantly because there are many open-source tools available, such as Filebeat and Logstash, to collect the logs.
Elastic Stack offers scalable monitoring with real-time anomaly detection and valuable machine learning for log processing. Its integration ease and community support are strengths, but complex dashboard setups and licensing costs deter some users. While security through X-Pack enhances SIEM capabilities, the absence of AI features and NDR hinders performance. Search abilities need improvements for large data, and technical support requires faster response times for a better experience.
