We performed a comparison between Elastic Security and Logz.io based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Elastic Security is a highly flexible platform that can be implemented anywhere."
"ELK Logstash is easy and fast, at least for the initial setup with the out of box uses."
"It is the best open-source product for people working in SO, managing and analyzing logs."
"The feature that we have found the most valuable is scalability."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"Enables monitoring of application performance and the ability to predict behaviors."
"It's a good platform and the very best in the current market. We looked at the Forester report from December 2022 where it was said to be a leader."
"I use the stack every morning to check the errors and it's just so clear. I don't see any disadvantage to using Logstash."
"InsightOne is the main reason why we use LogMeIn. This is mostly because of log data that we are pushing tools and logs in general."
"We use the product for log collection and monitoring."
"The other nice thing about Logz.io is their team. When it comes to onboarding, their support is incredibly proactive. They bring the brand experience from a customer services perspective because their team is always there to help you refine filters and tweak dashboards. That is really a useful thing to have. Their engagement is really supportive."
"We use the tool to track the dev and production environment."
"It is massively useful and great for testing. We can just go, find logs, and attach them easily. It has a very quick lookup. Whereas, before we would have to go, dig around, and find the server that the logs were connected to, then go to the server, download the log, and attach it. Now, we can just go straight to this solution, type in the log ID and server ID, and obtain the information that we want."
"The visualizations in Kibana are the most valuable feature. It's much more convenient to have a visualization of logs. We can see status really clearly and very fast, with just a couple of clicks."
"The tool is simple to setup where it is just plug and play. The tool is reliable and we never had any performance issues."
"The query mechanism for response codes and application health is valuable."
"In terms of what could be improved with Elastic, in some use cases, especially on the advanced level, they are not ready made, so you'll have to write some scripts."
"Elastic Security can be a bit difficult to use if a person only has experience in SMBs with tools like Zoho. The product can also be difficult for those who have never dealt with query language."
"Their visuals and graphs need to be better."
"I would like more ways to manage permissions and restrict access to certain users."
"Elastic Security could improve the documentation. It would help if they were more simple and clean."
"We'd like better premium support."
"Technical support could respond faster."
"The price of this product could be improved, especially the additional costs. I would also like to see better-quality graphics."
"The solution needs to expand its access control and make it accessible through API."
"Capacity planning could be a little bit of a struggle."
"The solution needs to improve its data retention. It should be greater than seven days. The product needs to improve its documentation as well."
"The product needs improvement from a filtering perspective."
"The price can be cheaper and they should have better monitoring."
"I would like granularity on alerting so we can get tentative alerts and major alerts, then break it down between the two."
"I would like them to improve how they manage releases. Some of our integrations integrate specifically with set versions. Logz.io occasionally releases an update that might break that integration. On one occasion, we found out a little bit too late, then we had to roll it back."
"When it comes to reducing our troubleshooting time, it depends. When there are no bugs in Logz.io, it reduces troubleshooting by 5 to 10 percent. When there are bugs, it increases our troubleshooting time by 200 percent or more."
