It's very simple to use.""I have made use of technical support and am certainly very satisfied with them.""The tool's reports show activities.""What I found most useful in ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is its integration with other ManageEngine applications.

Cons
"Lacking sufficient operations documentation.""The logging functionality could be better.""It is difficult to estimate in advance how much something is going to cost.""While we are satisfied with the overall performance, in certain cases we must add additional metrics and additional tools like Grafana and Dynatrace.""It could be even more automated.""If I want to track any round-trip or breakdowns of my response times, I'm not able to get it. My request goes through various levels of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and comes back to my client machine. Suppose that my request has taken 10 seconds overall, so if I want to break it down, to see where the delay is happening within my architecture, I am not able to find that out using Stackdriver.""The product provides minimal metrics that are insufficient.""This solution could be improved if it offered the ability to analyze charts, such as a solution like Kibana."

"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.""I would like to see more detailed reports.""The first tier of customer service and support is not great.""Support could improve to make the solution better.""The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities.""What I'd like to see as an improvement to ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is for it to be more AI-driven. Having more automation would also make the solution better.""It may not be as easy to use as Splunk.""The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier."
