The easiest option for monitoring our application

  • March 18, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I do not need to worry about capacity and performance. We analyze data in bursts and we don't need to scale Sumo for the occasions. I also use metrics to analyze performance during the burst period.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI has been improved quite a bit over the last two years. If any investment area that I could influence, I would like to have more attractive and interactive dashboards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Speed to resolve the customer's problem is a key driver for customer retention.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As a technology company, I also use other machine data analysis platform on-prem and in the cloud. One annoyance that I entered with the other cloud service provider is I have to live with "service upgrades" or outages. I never have to worry about that with Sumo.

Sumo logic is great for log aggregation and analysis and some performance monitoring

  • March 18, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I live the live metrics the best. We have them integrated into our internal dashboards and it's extremely useful. I have worked with Splunk in the past, and while they provide the same out of the box log aggregation tools, Sumo logic's UX is far better. I have been able to solve complex issues, and create embedded queries for live dashboards. I know Sumo logic is cloud native and built around cloud usage. This means integrations are smoother, particularly when it comes to platforms such as AWS; scalability is built-in, there is no need for constant updates, and getting started is quicker and easier than with Splunk. Another cool feature is its ability to establish baselines and actively notify you when key metrics change after an event, such as a new software version rollout or network breach attempt. I had an error where a process was stuck in a retry loop, creating 50 times the logs created in a healthy process. This change went into our test environment on a Friday and came to light only after the alert email from Sumologic asking if this was expected.
What do you dislike about the product?
I keep being asked to login twice, the first time the login fails, the second time it succeeds (same passwords as the first time). This is a super annoying problem, and everyone across the app comes across the same thing. Sumo Logic also lacks some of the extended features of Splunk, particularly when it comes to the Splunk Enterprise offering. Sumo Logic’s speeds when searching older data is really slow, and the UX completely bogs down during the search. Sumo logic is also a bit more on the on the expensive side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to be able to understand what is happening across our complex data pipeline using a distributed serverless architecture. Sumologic is an excellent tool helping analyze our logs and provide performance metrics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Nothing to add

Powerful Tool

  • March 18, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is one of the best tool for checking logs, generating reports and metrics.
Very handy and provides lots of customizations to exact what we are looking out of the logs.
Using other apps like pager duty for getting sms and call alerts is very useful for timely acting on the prod issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not sure if there any things that can be disliked about Sumologic.
Bt yes, for tailing logs, it should show the history just like in log search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Debugging production/ non production issues is very easy.
Generating reports and sharing with other teams is very handy.
Alerting system is one of the best features. Integrating with pager duty has helped in responding to issues on time. (I used pager duty in my previous client)
