Monthly and weekly resource monitoring has improved efficiency
Azure Monitor can improve by adding some kind of storage for logs. I can get the runtime logs alone, yet if Azure Monitor can independently add one gigabyte, two gigabytes, or five gigabytes at least to log storage, I can fix the logs without syncing with Log Analytics Workspace and Sentinel. If they do that, and if they can integrate a little pricing adjustment, it will be profitable for the Microsoft tool.

Good capabilities, has a helpful interface and is straightforward to set up
We have asked for a couple of features from the company already. What typically happens is a lot of people - and developers are one of the biggest consumers of this product - go to this product to optimize their investigation process and specific configurations. That increases our data flow at times, so the cost changes. And a lot of changes happen due to that. We have asked the company to auto-revert the changes after a while so that the system works typically. We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I am monitoring all of my Azure Monitor and getting good reports. I can customize the reports to get the information I need. I am also getting emails about which AAS instances are down and everything in the system related to my services. It is easy to use, scalable, and user-friendly. Microsoft has Many guides and videos to help you understand how to create and use Azure Monitor."
"Among the valuable features of this solution, Application Insights stands out as one of the most significant. It provides insights into application performance and helps identify issues and bottlenecks."
"I use the solution to monitor the infrastructure and applications."
"The solution's most valuable features are its ease of use and support for multiple environments"
"What I like about Azure Monitor is that it performs well."
"The most valuable feature is the universality of their functionalities in all Azure services, including, software solutions."
"Log analytics and log queries are the most valuable features of Azure Monitor."
"Azure Monitor is very stable."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"It's really complex to retrieve or query the logs in Azure Monitor."
"The pricing model could be more flexible."
"n comparison to New Relic, which I've used before, it's a bit more complicated. It's not as easy to use. It also took some time to get it working. The implementation needs to be simpler."
"They need to work on a more hybrid deployment that will allow us to monitor local on-premise deployments and connect to different systems. I would like to see more integration."
"The process of implementation needs to be easier."
"Azure Monitor's integration with applications could be improved."
"I need connectivity with cost management."
"The solution needs better monitoring. It requires better log controls."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of Azure Monitor application performance should be less expensive."
"I would rate Azure Monitor a two out of five for affordability."
"Since we are using the basic set, it is more cost-effective compared to other third-party APM solutions."
"There is a monthly fee for the alerts triggered and the data stored."
"Its cost depends on the ingestion of the logs. It could go anywhere. For an out-of-the-box platform such as FrameFlow, you pay pretty much a fixed price and you get what you get, whereas, with something like Azure Monitor, you pay by the ingestion charge, so you can have one client who pays hardly anything for the same alerts, and another client pays loads and loads."
"The tool's pricing is very good. I could say that Microsoft offers different cost models, which are listed on the product's website."
"The licensing is a monthly fee."
"The Azure Insight is a little bit expensive."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
