Cons
"Although it's not always the case, the price can sometimes get expensive. This depends on a number of factors, such as how many services you are trying to integrate with Azure Monitor and how much storage they're consuming each month (for example, how large are the log files?).""I would like more transparency when we use the solution with another environment, like on-premises, or on another cloud environment, like AWS or GCP.""The solution should have cross-connection or cross-communication between tech partners.""They need to work with other cloud providers - not just Azure.""The price could be lower but it is not a must.""The scalability could be improved as there are some limitations.""In my opinion, they should improve the overall user experience, especially when it comes to indexing and searching collective logs.""The default interface should be improved."

More Azure Monitor Cons →

"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh.""would like to see improvements in the alarm display console.""Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities.""In terms of sales or market perspective, they must invest in Latin America with professionals with a more marked presence.""The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms.""Back-end configuration is not easy to implement.""The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly.""Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."

    Reviews from Real Users

    “The product makes data collection easy. It's simple to set up. The algorithm is the most valuable aspect of the solution. In a few minutes after the installations, we can get insights from my technical environment. After a few minutes, I can get some valuable insights to make decisions.” - Anderson L., LatAm Presales Analyst at CLM

    “Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities.” - A PeerSpot user who is a Consultant at a tech services company
