We performed a comparison between ArcSight Logger and Grafana Loki 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."We have a trigger. So, Logger automatically blocks these IP addresses. We could have Logger put them on a blacklist."
"ArcSight provides the basic information that we want."
"It is one of the best products available in the market."
"The solution provides information about the risk factors."
"It's a brilliant log collection tool, and it can handle hundreds of thousands of servers in a single shot to ingest the data."
"It provides in-depth information on business activities once we log into the system."
"The ability to customize the solution in great detail is its most valuable features. We can customize the use cases and also have the ability to do scripting. We can personalize our dashboard as well. The scalability the solution offers is quite impressive."
"It's an efficient solution."
"We are using Grafana Loki as a database for real-time metrics."
"The most valuable feature of Grafana Loki is the dashboards which are really simple to create."
"The most valuable feature is the capability to set up alerts, which becomes necessary when we need to receive notifications for specific events."
"Loki also utilizes the same service discovery mechanism as used by Prometheus. So, whatever labeled metadata you see in Prometheus, you have the exact same metadata in the Loki system. Given this level of intricacy and the attempt to address these challenges, I firmly believe that Loki deserves praise for the work."
"The effectiveness of filters is pivotal for optimizing the search process and extracting the specific information we need from the extensive log data."
"The tool can be used in multi-cluster environments."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is an open-source tool that is stable and flexible."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the tool's GUI. The solution's GUI is very user-friendly."
"I would like to see better scheduling in the next release of this solution."
"The solution should make it possible to integrate network analysis features."
"The integration with other systems could be improved."
"We find that the search and access functionality is quite slow."
"The platform is quite expensive. They should reduce its cost."
"I think the ArcSight team should try to simplify legacy products for the customers, because that product is not easy to use or to work with. It needs more more competency or appeal to use. We hope Micro Focus is trying to resolve this."
"The console in older versions is not user-friendly."
"It is really difficult to work in ArcSight Logger, as it is very slow."
"My main concern is the recommended production-grade setup. They suggest using tools like Tanka or Jsonnet. They should simplify the process to increase adoption."
"We encountered certain limitations when it came to alerting, particularly when dealing with specific data sources."
"Visualization-wise, Grafana Loki's dashboard looks a little outdated compared to other open-source visualization tools like Chronograf."
"Enhancing speed could be a game-changer, and while it might vary depending on the application, it's a factor worth exploring."
"We had a well-structured dashboard with a functional query. However, an issue arose when the Kubernetes pod restarted. The statistics from our Grafana query would reset, dropping to zero and starting anew. This was particularly noticeable with linear graphs, which are expected to show consistent growth."
"The correlation of requests is not simple in Grafana Loki and can be improved."
"The product must improve its UI."
"In Grafana Loki, the creation of metrics is not so easy, making it an area that could be made easier."
