Logz.io Erfahrungen

Software just works making it very quick to get up and running to see insights in your data. The team is adding features on a regular basis, adding value to the product. Integration with third-party systems is also great - we use PagerDuty and Slack integration.

Dashboards are a great feature where we configure our important metrics to see at a glance how things are going - also makes it easy to on-board technical personnel as you can show them how all aspects of the application are working (as long as you are capturing the correct metrics).

The ability to share a specific view with a client is a great feature - let's your customer see what is happening with their specific services / apps.

Limitations on sub-account numbers - this is an artificial limit - make data volumes the one factor around costings.

Receive the query results quickly!
Nice visuals.

we save only 14 days - which makes it less useful.
Sometimes the search doesn't work as expected.
The group by is very not intuitive.

Fast, familiar Kibana interface, quite good filter selection/manipulation GUI, good alerts and sharing functionality.

The Insights functionality is of no value - whatever it finds/suggests is never related to any real issue we have. Filter value lists are based on 500 messages only and often selection of less frequent values (usually the more interesting ones) requires going into Visualize screen. Ad hoc parsing of messages and extraction of values (a la Loggly) is missing. Missing ability to set all filters in GUI before the query is actually performed (suspended update). Some little bugs with refresh when filters are changed.

All logging information is passed to logz IO, is easily searchable, filterable and easy to format to our organisations needs. Also slack integration is pretty easy.
Search is fast and takes a seconds at worst, less than a second a most times.
After IDE this is the tool i used the most.

Sometimes the search doesn't behave as expected. for instance search for a string triggers too much information, and there is a need to filter by fields first and than do the search.
Also would help when searching for exception, if the tool can highlight the code base specific lines in stack flow, but it's easily searchable.

Logz.io provides a familiar interface for anyone using ELK. It scales to meed our demand, even on our busiest days. I'd need to hire a team to maintain an infrastructure this size.

Search UI has unique behavior that requires a small amount of familiarization. The use of spaces and special characters adds complexity.

I don't have to worry about scaling my ELK stack, those considerations are handled for us. Additionally the support is terrific, very responsive and the API documentation is outstanding.

It's just well done, and keeps getting better. Easy to find what I need and zooming in quickly to the root of the issue.

The query language is very strict could be simplified, but even that is a benefit because of compliance with ELK.

It takes aware the hassle of hosting your own ELK stack and dealing with scaling. The UI is nice and the API is really easy to use.

You will be paying a premium over hosting it yourself but the service is worth the money with the additions they provide and the customer support etc.

Includes a lot of easy-to-use features and provides a variety of levels for digging into logs, building dashboards

Implementation is a bit hard, especially the sub-accounts quota definition which required some adjustments

Setting up my logs to be sent to Logz was a breeze - we're using Docker, filebeat, and rsyslog. Literally it just works. The price is good and the support, the few times I've ever had to use it (for simple questions), has been great.

Insights has caught so many bugs in my product that it's paid for itself.

Some things like SAML requires manual integration on the Logz side. This isn't usually a bad thing because it's a once off but I'd like to be able to do certain things without involving support.

I am amazed about the ingestion and search capabilities. Integration with applications and specially with docker is a breeze.

Subscription plans should be more progressive, sometimes if the maximum event ingestion is met, the events are lost. Under those circumstances, the possibility to delete uninteresting events would help.

The ELK is fully featured and well documented. This way it is easy to find your way around. We also like the tokenized access we can give our customers.

Pricing : huge gap between 1GB/day and 5GB/day.
Sometimes UI takes up to 10 seconds to load.
Geo location data is old and inaccurate. Even after 4 or 5 requests it has not been improved.

clean interface and feature rich. timeless index, alerts actions supported by APIs, cloudtrail and account utilization

performance maybe poor depending on load of messages and query. Alerts should have multi query support and multi trigger support

The biggest features are how quickly you can gain access to your important data. Several times we have used logz.io to track down issues in real time with ease! In addition, if you have a suggestion or question, the response time is outstanding!

We can find any issues or bugs from Insights feature by just uploading the logs.
Also we can store our data easily and cheaper on AWS S3.

This might be wish-to-have feature.
If we could correlate the logs with IOCs like malicious URL or malicious IPs, it would be very happy.

Great for analysis of trends in log output, searching for that needle in a haystack, and triggering alerts

For developers, sometimes the interface feels like it gets in the way of the raw logfiles. Some overhead required to separate data into fields and identify numeric content for statistical charting. Occasional weird bugs in new features.

- No system administration
- Nice user management
- Data analyser
- Power of elastic search
- Very easy to use

The only cons i see is that Kibana is configured to only show the last 500 events on the web interface.

It has a powerful search mechanism on the logs.
The UX is great (for example, I can add and remove a parameter to the search with a click).

I would like to get the raw logs around an exception that I found.
Some minor UX issues that are not important.

1) Saves me time
2) Great add-ons like AI to automagically analyze your logs
3)Alerts work well - we connect them to our pager duty account so we always know when something happens that needs our attention

It was easy to set up. The Logz.io specific features in the UI are very useful. The many different log shipping methods include great documentation.

Kibana can be overwhelming to new users. It does require some getting used to. This isn't really the fault of Logz.io though.

Insights feature help us find problem realtime!
Until now out analyst took one hour and more to analyze multi logs. Logz.io help us reduce the cost!

The API document is too simple to integrate with our cloud system.
If possible, please provide us more detail about API.

It is scalable and flexible. Support is magnificent. It meets every one of our needs, including SAML access controls. We love the integration with S3.
