Sumo Logic Security is known for its stability.
It is easy to set up and includes numerous training resources.
Sumo Logic Security features valuable search options and customizable log search capabilities.
Technical support is consistently excellent.
Integration with threat intelligence solutions is possible with Sumo Logic Security.

CONS

If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see.
Sumo Logic needs to make sure integrating solutions are seamless.
In my opinion, this solution has a steep learning curve and requires practice if users are to be able to use this tool very efficiently.
The integration with multiple sources could be better.
Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved.

We use it to ingest Windows domain controller logs. We use this to monitor if anyone is placed in particular administration groups that potentially shouldn't be. It helps us keep track of people.

For many of our services, we use Sumo Logic to track errors and send notifications to our Slack channel, if there are issues. Then, we have our support people monitoring this, and they can react quickly.

If you want to up your subscription through the AWS Marketplace, it can be difficult. You can't just go back to the AWS Marketplace, and say, "I want a bigger one now." You have to contact the sales team, then they do it on the back-end. This could definitely be improved.

I would like better UI-driven functionality to create alerts and reports. Now, we have to understand the syntax, so it is a little difficult for someone to pick it up without using the manuals. If there was more of a graphical user interface, it would be beneficial.
