Google Cloud Operations Suite vs. vRealize Operations (discontinued)

Stackdriver is really a very good tool for errors and reporting. It provides the application issues especially the exception errors and sends the alerts. It's available for multiple languages like Python, GO and Java, etc. The best part is all the application errors are available at a single place and it comes with the GAE application. It's slow if you want to search very old logs and need to wait couple of hrs sometimes.

With the introduction of API-based event alerts, there is no need for a proxy, which is a good option. Its ability to manage infra on a real-time basis is a good option that helps monitor, administer and troubleshoot virtual machines.
