"One of the most valuable features of vRealize Log Insight is that it gives you a clear forecast about your existing machines, for example, how long your machines could be supported and how long the remaining capacity is to host your machines. This is one of the best options available within vRealize Log Insight. Another valuable feature of the solution is automation. My company deploys a lot of automation when required in a very, very short period, and in a very uniform manner, and even if the automation is being deployed for different processes and departments, it's pretty much the same across the environment, so vRealize Log Insight helps reduce a lot of ambiguities and helps my company manage operational efficiencies well."

You can't define a log retention policy. You also can't define the destination or location for your logs. All of the logs are in one index or one bucket."
"They should improve their web interface to make it more user-friendly."
"I would like to see more tutorials or at least an introduction video from the supplier, so you can become proficient and get the most out of the solution. You might not get the full benefit from a logging or reporting solution because you might not have a particular tool enabled. You could leave something out of your analysis because you aren't aware of it or you don't know how to set it up."
"The dashboard needs to be improved because this is what I need to monitor my infrastructure."
"The pricing of the solution could be improved."
"Paid or free does not matter, but it is complex to find good training material for vRealize Log Insight."
