Review on Graylog by Adam Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great for identifying attack activity quickly

I use log analytics as part my daily job within a cyber security role; it gives me an easy point at which i can see whats going on without having to do a lot of work or spend many hours searching through different logs & databases myself. It's very fast once installed correctly allowing you to view what matters with ease in seconds rather than looking into large database tables or using grep command line programs. There are still some bugs that make it difficult to use but this will hopefully be rectified soon due to their rapid evolution towards better customer service/support & new features rolling out all over time with regular updates so they have no excuse! We now identify suspicious traffic or anomalies and we've reduced incident costs drastically over previous methods such as paging people around who would end up doing things by accident instead of realising why its happening. I liked that it was easy to setup as a monitoring tool. The dashboard UI could use some work (it's very basic) but once you have everything set up, its pretty good at what it does! The ability to monitor multiple environments in one place makes it easier than ever before. We needed something simple to get started with our CI/CD pipeline so this fit right into our needs perfectly.
