We performed a comparison between Graylog and ManageEngine Log360 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."Storing logs in Elasticsearch means log retrieval is extremely fast, and full text search is available by default."
"One of the most valuable features is that you are able to do a very detailed search through the log messages in the overview."
"The ability to write custom alerts is key to information security and compliance."
"We're using the Community edition, but I know that it has really good dashboarding and alerts."
"I am very proud of how very stable the solution is."
"What I like about Graylog is that it's real-time and you have access to the raw data. So, you ingest it, and you have access to every message and every data item you ingest. You can then build analytics on top of that. You can look at the raw data, and you can do some volumetric estimations, such as how big traffic you have, how many messages of data of a type you have, etc."
"The build is stable and requires little maintenance, even compared to some extremely expensive products."
"Everything stands out as valuable, including the fact that I can quantify and qualify the logs, create pipelines and process the logs in any way I like, and create charts or data maps."
"The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox."
"ManageEngine Log360 is not difficult to deploy."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is that this solution is more secure than others, and there are more applications and features as well."
"You can have all of the logs from servers to network and it gets sent out to the correct owners. This is very helpful."
"The reporting is great. Everything you need is in the report for you already."
"The most valuable features for us are the application logs monitoring and the dashboard, which provides a single-pane view of all the ongoing activities."
"The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward."
"Dashboards, stream alerts and parsing could be improved."
"The infrastructure cost is the main issue. I like the rest. If the infrastructure costs could be lower, it would be fantastic."
"We ran into problems with Elasticsearch throwing a circuit-breaking exception due to field data size being too large. It turned out that the heap size directly impacted this size in a high-throughput environment, causing unexplained instability in Graylog. We were able to troubleshoot on the Elasticsearch size, but we should have been able to reference some minimum requirements for Graylog to know that our settings weren't sufficient."
"Its scalability gets complicated when we have to update or edit multiple nodes."
"I hope to see improvements in Graylog for more interactivity, user-friendliness, and creating alerts. The initial setup is complex."
"Graylog can improve the index rotation as it's quite a complex solution."
"The biggest problem is the collector application, as we wanted to avoid using Graylog Collector Sidecar due to its architecture."
"More customization is always useful."
"It takes a little bit of time for Log360 to actually learn your environment."
"The solution needs to improve hub storage. It should integrate AI and ML capabilities."
"Most times log sheets are not assigned well."
"On the logging system, there's a local on-client side that is encrypted, and there's one that is not encrypted. It is only for diagnostical purposes. However, both being encrypted would be very valuable for some audits."
"The integration with SharePoint and Teams should be improved."
"We can log in as a local user, and it's fine, but when we login with an Active Directory user, we cannot."
"The matter of the data retention needs to be addressed."
"Their technical support should be improved."
