We performed a comparison between Graylog and Rapid7 InsightOps 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."Allowing us to set up alerts and integrate with platforms we already use, such as Slack and OpsGenie to alert users of these errors proactively, is also a very useful feature."
"The build is stable and requires little maintenance, even compared to some extremely expensive products."
"I like the correlation and the alerting."
"Graylog's search functionality, alerting functionality, user management, and dashboards are useful."
"I am very proud of how very stable the solution is."
"Message forwarding through the in-built module."
"It is used as a log manager/SIEM. It provides visibility into the infrastructure and security related events."
"The best feature of Graylog is the Elasticsearch integration. We can integrate and we can run filters, such as an event of interest, and those logs we can send to any SIEM tool or as an analytic. Additionally, there are clear and well-documented implementation instructions on their website to follow if needed."
"It has the ability to alert and track logs from different sources."
"The most valuable feature of Rapid7 InsightOps is the search functionality."
"We can save logs as plain text."
"The ability to browse logs from multiple sources at the same time really speeds up root cause analysis."
"Its scalability gets complicated when we have to update or edit multiple nodes."
"Dashboards, stream alerts and parsing could be improved."
"Graylog could improve the process of creating rules. We have to create them manually by doing parses and applying them. Other SIEM solutions have basic rules and you can create and get more events of interest."
"I would like to see some kind of visualization included in Graylog."
"Graylog needs to improve their authentication. Also, the fact that Graylog displays logs from the top down is just ridiculous."
"I hope to see improvements in Graylog for more interactivity, user-friendliness, and creating alerts. The initial setup is complex."
"Lacks sufficient documentation."
"I would like to see a date and time in the Graylog Grok patterns so that I can save time when searching for a log. I like how the streams and the search query work, but adding a date and time will allow me to pull out a log in a milli-second."
"Rapid7 InsightOps could improve by making the search query better. There are times when the search query is broken and it does not find anything."
"Since I used the beta, improvements are to be expected. The dashboard options could have been clearer, but I believe it is more a problem with the limited documentation available at the time."
"The solution takes a little bit of time when we load the website for the first time."
"There are a few things I would like to do with a few more complex queries which I am not able to do right now, because it is a SaaS solution."
