We are building a reconciliation system where we handle the in and out of transactions daily. We maintain a record to verify if transactions came at the expected time and match them with the bank statement. We also deal with Kafka and pod failures, high Kafka lag, and have integrated Grafana with Coralogix to monitor Kafka lag on each topic.

Efficient monitoring with precise time range selection boosts daily transaction reconciliation
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
One of the most valuable features of Coralogix is its time range feature, which allows us to specify a time range and get the exact logs needed. This feature is frequently used by our team. Coralogix also allows us to query in a way similar to querying a database, but this is not commonly known among our team members.
What needs improvement?
We need to reduce the number of logs generated by our system, which are substantial. We require some form of grouping or categorization of logs to identify them better. Additionally, we find that the user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Coralogix for around one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
There was an instance where we faced difficulty understanding why there was a lot of Kafka lag. The aggregation process in Coralogix makes it hard to see the exact metric. For example, high CPU usage on one pod can be averaged out by others, concealing potential issues. This averaging can sometimes be troublesome.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten. We have never faced any scalability issues.
How are customer service and support?
The support team is doing well. They are helpful, especially when we created several custom dashboards.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is straightforward and easy to integrate with Coralogix. Creating a custom dashboard depends on the team.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing is expensive. We need to reduce logs to manage costs. Despite the expense, I believe it is worth the money to have Coralogix as a tool.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
What other advice do I have?
I would rate Coralogix eight out of ten overall. While I recommend Coralogix, New Relic has advantages in specific areas.
Experience smarter logging, faster troubleshooting, turning logs into insights, not noise!
What do you like best about the product?
Real-Time Monitoring & Alerts provides real-time log monitoring with detailed alerts, helping the team totrack unit consumption and detect anomalies quickly.
Cost Optimization log tiering system (Frequent Search, Archive, and Low Tier) allows us to balance performance and cost, ensuring critical logs are accessible while storing less critical logs efficiently.
Seamless Integrations integrates well with Fluentd, AWS, and other observability tools, making log ingestion and analysis smooth.
Detailed Usage Insights ability to analyze logs based on applications, subsystems, and severity helps optimize data ingestion and prevent unnecessary unit consumption.
Responsive Support Chat support assists with temporary unit increases, which is helpful for maintaining uninterrupted operations .
Scalability efficiently handles high log volumes across multiple teams and regions, which aligns with your multi-account AWS setup.
APM provides real-time insights into our application behavior, linking logs, metrics, and traces to give a complete picture of system health . Along with distributed tracing allows us to track requests across services, helping pinpoint bottlenecks in microservices architectures.

What do you dislike about the product?
User Mangement is not upto the mark hard to mange for admin .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its solving my application and customer realted issue in short time with the monitoring and alerts,
Good level of breadth being covered
What do you like best about the product?
1. Coralogix has become our single dashboard for anything related to server logs monitoring, APM monitoring and RUM monitoring. There is a good level of interconnection as well between these.
2. The product is easy to use and has a good set of out-of-the-box dashboards
3. Since raw logs are available to us, we can build out custom dashboards using these for our different use cases
4. Integration with the product was fairly straightforward
5. Customer support is prompt and most of the times useful

What do you dislike about the product?
1. I have seen issues where there have been some bugs/changes in the product which has caused some of my custom dashboards break. On contacting, I get the solution for the same. But this gets frustrating at times
2. The time to load the logs and some of the dashboards could be a little on the higher side

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. The logs from our application servers are pushed to coralogix. The portal makes it easy to monitor these logs and also add alerts on these if needed
2. We have instrumented with opentelemetry and are pushing the APM logs as well to coralogix. Again here, the visualization is good, giving us a better view of how different services interact and where there are bottlenecks or issues
3. We have recently adopted the RUM integration to push the front end logs.

InterSystems Coralogix On-Site Visit
What do you like best about the product?
Aggregating logs and metrics in one place is helpful. My favorite part of the product is the tracing feature. It makes it very easy to debug issues with our webapp by seeing the status of requests to our webapp at every step in the process.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think some of the documenation around COralogix integrations could be more accessible. For example, the Coralogix information on setting up OTEL host metrics is helpful, but from my experience it could only be found through a google search. I'd prefer if this and similar documentaiton was linked to directly from the Coralogix webapp.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aggregating all of our product infomartion (logs, metrics, etc.) into one place. I also know there are a number of features that could be used to further enirch our data, but our team is not using them yet.
Coralogix made debugging easier
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of adding filters based log content, easy indexed search, and easy-to-do grouping operations to identify different kinds of errors for a service
What do you dislike about the product?
the archival search option sometimes misses out on some results, you have to narrow down on the time window.

Debugging and monitoring production systems
Experience During the Integration Process of BFI with Coralogix
What do you like best about the product?
What I liked during the integration was having several backup engineers, and I really appreciated Sri Ram Jha for his patience and good responsiveness in handling our requests.
What do you dislike about the product?
It might be necessary to add more engineers, so that 2 engineers handle 1 customer. This way, if one is sick or unavailable, there is a backup engineer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Yesterday, we experienced an issue with our server that prevented Docker from sending logs from on-premises to Coralogix. However, Sri used a different log collector for this and has been successful so far.
Log aggregator and analysis exactly as you want it to be
What do you like best about the product?
Product keeps evolving, new capabilities are released, simple to use and underasnd, and most importantly superb support team to guide you when ever you need.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing specific on this side. Really happy about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy way to manage all the logs from all places in a convinent way
Coralogix as a tool for production managers
What do you like best about the product?
1. As the person in charge of the production environment and resource and funds allocation, Coralogix allows me to manage each feature with the same pool of units. I am not required to buy separate plans.
2. DataPrime is a great tool to query sources like logs and traces with SQL-like syntax.
3. Otel Ready
