"The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part."
"The product provides minimal metrics that are insufficient."
"The logging functionality could be better."
"It could be more stable."
"It could be even more automated."
"Lacking sufficient operations documentation."
"The process of logging analytics can be improved"
