Considered Both Products	Graylog Verified User Anonymous Chose Graylog Azure Monitor is not exactly what I mean, but I couldn't find Azure Application Insights. Anyway, for a large organization, Azure makes more sense than using Graylog because a lot of logging will already be inside Azure. And you don't want to have two "central" logging … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Graylog We use the free edition, because it is free and open source. We evaluated numerous other products, but we decided to go down the Graylog track because of initial costs. While the competition (Splunk, AlienVault, etc.) are very good products and come highly recommended, it … Incentivized Helpful? JC Jeremy Cejka Principal Systems Engineer Chose Graylog In terms of log aggregation, the free product fully stacks up with the competitors listed. Full control over the data ingests for flexible configuration. Graylog even better on that front than Alienvault USM because you cannot configure the variable mapping. We haven't used … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Graylog Graylog does what other similar products that cost more do, but the more expansive one typically has more features or are multiple products wrapped in one. We went with Graylog because it does everything we need it too, and the price was less than other and fit into our budget. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Graylog We previously used Syslog(-ng) and considered moving to the Logstash with Kibana as part of the standard ELK stack as we are consumers of ELK in other scenarios, but we determined that maintaining a distributed Graylog system was going to require less work overtime for our main … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Graylog Graylog provides some great functionality for free. There are some more premium products that would handle more logs and would be a little easier to configure.

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	If you already have a basic understanding of Elasticsearch and/or MongoDB, Graylog will be a great fit when it comes to log aggregation. It will be a decent option even if you don't have any experience but have the time and willingness to roll up your sleeves that learning those tools will require. Graylog supports plugins to extend functionality for things like SNMP traps, telemetry collection, and solar flares. As is the case with most software with plugins, if the core functionality for which you are looking (i.e. not logging) is based on a plugin, Graylog probably isn't for you. The majority of the plugins in the marketplace are developed by third-parties looking to solve their specific use case so bug fixes and new features are not a given.

Pros	The free edition is extraordinarily powerful. Log searching is quick. The web interface is sleek, and the install is relatively quick. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Cons	The graphs and visualizations are limited on the dashboard if there were more options it would be better for different kinds of data. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	From a product perspective, it's an 8. I am still unhappy with the pricing model for the enterprise. Graylog competes against the likes of IBM and Splunk, but your still the new kid on the block. To price Graylog enterprise at 50k for 20GB ingest an unrealistic data. It would require multiple facets of Graylog to be stood up and only forward pruned logs to the paid version.

Alternatives Considered	Azure Monitor is not exactly what I mean, but I couldn't find Azure Application Insights. Anyway, for a large organization, Azure makes more sense than using Graylog because a lot of logging will already be inside Azure. And you don't want to have two "central" logging locations. But Azure is chaos and highly "not intuitive." So for small and mid-size organizations, Graylog is still the better option.
