My Experience with Sumo
What do you like best about the product?
Sumo is an endlessly-customizable way to quickly access what I need from my company's extensive server logs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sumo's character limits do sometimes cut off information that I need from particular logs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sumo's intuitive interface allows frontline support reps at my company to access a vast array of data to solve customer requests at lightning speed. No need for long waits to request logs from engineering teams, and no need to pull off engineers off their projects to help troubleshoot customer issues in most cases.
It is a great tool to organize the logs for all types
What do you like best about the product?
We can integrate with many tools to feed the logs directly into SumoLogic.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not seen anything to unlike. It has great features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sumologic user review
What do you like best about the product?
I love their visualizations and the easy integration with our AWS Account.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the fact that they do not provide recommendations on best practices. However, may be that is not their scope but it would be nice to have it along.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides us the centralized monitoring of our environment. Helps track inbound and outbound traffic.
Centralized and democratized logging is essential for a software team
What do you like best about the product?
From the start the Sales team was very good at understanding their product and getting a solutions architect on board early to help you understand the best ways of getting information from your logs. They are open to lots of dialog and willing to make sure you are in a good place to succeed.
The ingestion tools are fairly simple and for us we defaulted most to the HTTP ingestion endpoint.
Parsing is very robust and extracting fields from your logs can be done a number of different ways.
The log-metrics ability was a real winner for us as we have a number of items that log metric information but aren't spitting them out as actual metrics endpoints. This basically allows you to do any custom metrics in a log line to work with.
The query language is fairly robust and allows for things like joins, subqueries, aggregation and log reduction and time comparisons.

What do you dislike about the product?
As with any of these tools you must really understand their standard query language. It takes a little to get used to and you need to think through how to use it all.
I also would have expected more ways of ingesting the data to be built out. Things like common tools that would have been used.
The content library has taken me a little to get used to because even though my user has access to everything I still have to switch to the content administrator view to move things to root level folders.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the initial calls with the Sales team seriously and setup an ingestion as soon as possible to get the most value out of those conversations.
Reasonably priced log aggregation + metrics
What do you like best about the product?
SumoLogic has all the features (and then some) that SMBs would need to complete log aggregation across infrastructure. Additionally, there are many pre-built search/parsing formats for common data types (like AWS access logs) that are very handy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes dashboards and search interfaces don't have the latest logs and can take some time to get there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Log aggregation for server/application management across services.
Powerful log analysis tool
What do you like best about the product?
Fairly easy to use and very powerful. It's hard to imagine doing production support without a tool like this.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was cheaper so we could ingest more logs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's great for diagnosing production issues by examining and correlating logs. It's also good for alerting based on criteria.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely worth considering as a cheaper alternative to Splunk and a more feature-rich solution versus open source (E.g. ELK).
Cloud logging tool
What do you like best about the product?
I don’t have to worry about the infra piece
What do you dislike about the product?
They can add more security and its features. Also more complex options are expected. Still lagging behind SIEM tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Issue troubleshooting and monitoring
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have SIEM, the ease of infra
Pricey, but excellent
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is easy to automate collector installation across a variety of infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is quite clunky, and lags behind established peers such as Splunk, and up-and-comers such as Google's cloud offering.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a way developers could aggregate logs quickly and easily, without having to perform manual steps that would take them away from their jobs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely give them a try depending on your needs. They are pricey, but worth it at this point, especially if your workload is in AWS.
