Chose Logz.io
Logz.io is more affordable, less work to maintain, and has more features. It was an easy choice. After my last team had to manage their own ELK stack, this was a no brainer. It helps us be focused on our core competencies.
Chose Logz.io
It is more focused in its approach which makes it really good for aggregating and analyzing logs. It has been way more helpful than New Relic APM for us. Data dog is nice but has some different focuses as well.

AWS integrations are easy, metrics are easily accesable Long term log insights need to be thought out and set up carefully
Read full review
It is appropriate for companies that focus on developing extremely simple applications. The great visibility it provides makes it ideal to avoid problems that may affect the entire business or company thanks to the fact that it is capable of emitting dozens of alerts in a short time. Sometimes the search behavior becomes slow and inefficient, which can be uncomfortable.

Pros
  • Integration with AWS
  • Notifications land where they should
  • Broad integration options
Read full review
  • Alerting - Logz.io allows you to set up numerous alerts and define the specific conditions to trigger these alerts, such as the number of occurrences over a specific period of time and severity.
  • Notifications - The supported integrations with Slack and OpsGenie make it easy to set up alerts to specific groups or users, like those in a particular Slack room or OpsGenie group. This is good to reduce noise and limit initial notifications to those who really need to get it.
