We performed a comparison between Logz.io and VMware Aria Operations for Logs 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."The tool is simple to setup where it is just plug and play. The tool is reliable and we never had any performance issues."
"It is massively useful and great for testing. We can just go, find logs, and attach them easily. It has a very quick lookup. Whereas, before we would have to go, dig around, and find the server that the logs were connected to, then go to the server, download the log, and attach it. Now, we can just go straight to this solution, type in the log ID and server ID, and obtain the information that we want."
"The query mechanism for response codes and application health is valuable."
"The other nice thing about Logz.io is their team. When it comes to onboarding, their support is incredibly proactive. They bring the brand experience from a customer services perspective because their team is always there to help you refine filters and tweak dashboards. That is really a useful thing to have. Their engagement is really supportive."
"We use the tool to track the dev and production environment."
"The visualizations in Kibana are the most valuable feature. It's much more convenient to have a visualization of logs. We can see status really clearly and very fast, with just a couple of clicks."
"InsightOne is the main reason why we use LogMeIn. This is mostly because of log data that we are pushing tools and logs in general."
"We use the product for log collection and monitoring."
"I like the interface."
"The most valuable feature is server virtualization. It's been very useful."
"The interface of the solution is good."
"One of the things I like about it is its interface. When it comes to generating reports on VMs and stuff, it's very quick. This is very handy for the technical team, who need to generate reports quickly. So that's really good."
"The solution is quite user-friendly."
"The virtualization solution supports data center virtualization, network and security."
"We use the on-premises version of this solution for log analysis and to find details about certain issues."
"The system's management and its alerts are the most valuable aspects of the solution."
"The solution needs to improve its data retention. It should be greater than seven days. The product needs to improve its documentation as well."
"I would like granularity on alerting so we can get tentative alerts and major alerts, then break it down between the two."
"The solution needs to expand its access control and make it accessible through API."
"The product needs improvement from a filtering perspective."
"I would like them to improve how they manage releases. Some of our integrations integrate specifically with set versions. Logz.io occasionally releases an update that might break that integration. On one occasion, we found out a little bit too late, then we had to roll it back."
"Capacity planning could be a little bit of a struggle."
"The price can be cheaper and they should have better monitoring."
"When it comes to reducing our troubleshooting time, it depends. When there are no bugs in Logz.io, it reduces troubleshooting by 5 to 10 percent. When there are bugs, it increases our troubleshooting time by 200 percent or more."
"Log Insight should be better at dealing with audits and security logs. We use another product called QRadar for that."
"The product's price falls on the higher end of the spectrum, making it an area of concern."
"Documentation is lacking, including some guide as to how to use the expressions. It is not clear how to look for a log, for example. Some examples in the documentation might be helpful. I think that VMware had good documentation, but it's no longer hosted. The documentation is not as easy to understand as it was before."
"Integration with other vendors is something that could be improved, they could add more vendors."
"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."
"In vRealize login files, we have limitations regarding log partitions."
"Log retention should have more options for user control."
"The monitoring landscape is getting bigger. When it comes to infrastructure monitoring, we need more visibility. VMware needs to integrate more related applications and third-party products. That would make it more appealing to an audience beyond the VMware team."
