"With this tool, we provide access to every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help.""The solution is quite stable.""It provides easy visibility. I also like the shareable queries because we share a lot across groups.""We can integrate threat intelligence solutions into the product.""For many of our services, we use Sumo Logic to track errors and send notifications to our Slack channel, if there are issues. Then, we have our support people monitoring this, and they can react quickly.""Sumo Logic is an easy solution to use. You can set it up very quickly, and it includes a lot of training videos.""The tool has key features like operability.

Cons
"The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier.""Support could improve to make the solution better.""The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability.""It may not be as easy to use as Splunk.""I would like to see more detailed reports.""The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities.""The scalability is limited.""There isn't good security integration when it comes to cybersecurity. The correlation of logs isn't so simple."

More ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer Cons →

"From the network segmentation side, there is some discrepancy in log onboarding. The tool needs to improve direct API integrations, login integration, native login integration, etc.""In my opinion, this solution has a steep learning curve and requires practice if users to be able to use this tool very efficiently.""The API integration in Sumo Logic Security could improve. There are delayed connections or they stop and then automatically start. Having a seamless log collection would be beneficial.""There are some API gaps that are missing.""It would be nice to have an improved ability to scroll through logs within a time frame. Right now, we can search for specific errors. However, if we want to look for "before and after" within a specific time frame, it's not easy using the tool. This would be an improvement.""The integration with multiple sources could be better.""If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see.""The initial setup is the most stressful, like learning how to use it."
