"Monitoring without security compromise"

4/5

I'm able to allow members of my team to monitor processes, pipelines, and workflows without giving them access to specific servers. Okta integration is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Grouping redundant or repetitive tasks would be helpful when utilizing the search feature. It can be difficult to sift through thousands of messages that don't contain new information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allows teams to monitor job progress/bugs so they have a first place to look when data isn't available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast, easy, awesome!"

5/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Scalyr agent is pretty feature-rich, performs well, and is open source. Also, really enjoy the log4j/logback appenders to facilitate getting logs to Scalyr.

I also like the parsing functionality. Can do some really robust things.

Oh, the support from Scalyr and openness to listen to suggestions is unmatched by any other service we tried.

Also, the alerts are vert interesting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Metrics are lacking compared to other solutions. UI isn't the best and could use some love. Alerts, especially to Slack, are complicated to create. Long lines of text(json) which is eventually parsed into a query to Slack is challenging in the current UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DataSet (by SentinelOne):

Definitely try it out. Easy to get started sending logs from lots of sources! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solving log aggregation to allow better troubleshooting when a problem occurs and, because of the alerts, be able to prevent problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It just works!"

5/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Being able to get feedback from Scalyr's support team in a fast manner was very helpful. I also like the UI for visualizing how many log events that we get. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

The way that alerts are managed (a gigantic JSON file) rather than a more intuitive UI is problematic. This design needs to be more thought out for the future - once a team has many alerts it starts to get out of hand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tracking down errors to their root causes in a timely manner without having to SSH into the instances themselves is a lifesaver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best of what I've used."

4/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

From a deployment perspective, it seems to play nice with sane practices (it listens to STDOUT, parses parameters, and surfaces the logs somewhere you can find them). Being able to configure which fields it shows, filtering on those fields, and easily scrolling through different time windows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

The query language is somewhat opaque, and the UI could make it easier to build up valid searches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DataSet (by SentinelOne):

Emit your logs in JSON! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Monitoring data processing pipelines to troubleshoot warnings and failures. Just in general, it's valuable to have all of our logs in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast and highly flexible log management & monitoring"

5/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Graphs and alerting. Graphs let us quickly see if our infrastructure is behaving normally and we've set up a lot of alerting to have peace of mind that our system if functioning fine.

Having used Splunk before, I like Scalyr infinitely better. I can ask Scalyr to graph $queryTime\>X and it will do so in a second; Splunk would tell me to wait 30 minute, time out, and output nothing. Scalyr lets you slice and dice you logs to answer the exactly question you want. It's insane they allow regular expressions and using regular expressions doesn't negatively impact performance! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Understandably in order to graph large amounts of data, Scalyr relies on sampling. For the most part this isn't a problem, but there are times the sampling can hide the spikes you were looking for. I often find myself zooming in to portions of the graph to validate the zoomed out numbers.

Alerting is powerful and does what we want, but it is on the user to keep it organized. The way you modify alerts is via json so it takes some diligence on behalf of the user to keep it clean. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Monitoring and debugging. Scalyr alerts us on 90% of our site issues and helps us debug 99% of issues. The flexibility of the platform lets us push in all sorts of logs in one place which means it's the one place you need to look to get to the bottom of an issue.

"Essential tool, highly recommend"

5/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

We use Scalyr to power almost all of our analysis, monitoring, and forensics in engineering. The only three tools my team absolutely cannot live without are AWS, Slack and Scalyr.

At this point I think a centralized log management tool is an absolute must-have for running in the cloud, and Scalyr is a great solution because it is inexpensive, easy to set up and low-maintenance compared to Kibana or open-source tools. Deploying the agents to our servers was simple and I particularly like that that Scalyr also tracks system data (CPU, Memory, etc.) and statsd information so we don't need a second tool like m/monit or DataDog. It has been easy to get all of the engineers to adopt Scalyr and build dashboards and alerts for Slack and PagerDuty. It's been absolutely reliable in the last 3 years and it costs a fraction of what Splunk or SumoLogic charge. Support has always been immediate and helpful in the cases where we hit a bug. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

By comparison to Splunk, it has less ability to perform complex graphical analysis and chained queries. This has not been a big issue for us, but there are times it would be nice to do deeper facet-analysis to get the right answers. The UI is also less intuitive than Splunk, though it has improved greatly in the last 1.5 years and is pretty solid now.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

1) Centralized log management (e.g. trace problems across a dynamic set of servers in AWS)

2) Centralized alerting, based off CPU, security logs, application logs, and third-party tools (e.g. host-based intrusion detection and anti-virus)

3) Timeseries dashboards for key metrics like system load, queue size

4) Forensic analysis either to triage an incident or for post-incident analysis Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Scalyr makes you a log ninja"

5/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Scalyr takes manual grepping and retrieving of logs from something you dread to something you look forward to because you can now find and eliminate issues slowing down your new feature development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Scalyr doesn't use the most efficient methods to transmit logs across the wire (binary wire protocols such as protobuffs for example). This would dramatically reduce the bandwith necessary to upload to Scalyr and therefore I could increase the amount of logging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Scalyr to reduce the time it takes to debug issues in our deployed services. We've seen a huge drop in the amount of time where some logs weren't even retrievable and now it's easy just to push to Scalyr. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Blazing fast log searching"

4/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

It's really, really fast. I can search millions of entries over multiple days in a matter of seconds. The configuration system is very flexible and we can push notifications of events to other services really easily. Being able to use a command line tool to dump out the log values is also really useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

The configuration it's as straight forward as other systems I've used. Learning their configuration syntax is a bit complicated, and setting up almost everything requires custom scripts to be written. It could be a lot more simple. Also, pushing information into Slack doesn't give you very much detail, so you have to follow the link to see what triggered the alert. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DataSet (by SentinelOne):

Try it out. Push as much data as you can into the system so that you get a chance to really explore it and enjoy the speed. Take the time to learn the custom configuration syntax and don't hesitate to reach out to support if you need help; they are responsive. Use some of the sample configurations to get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can diagnose a customer issue or investigate data usage very quickly. We are also alerted about behaviors in a slack channel automatically. The aggregate graphs are very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We are able to see the log very clear, for most of our distributed network"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

I like Scalyr because it provides the visibility of our logs in all of our services, and we're able to check the logs we needed based on the available filter. And also, we are able to create alert threshold whenever we needed for our SRE team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataSet (by SentinelOne)?

Probably we can have a sub-member for our Primary account, with own permission for sub-level entry subscription (lower subscription method). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DataSet (by SentinelOne):

I recommend Scalyr for every other Product/Services that use medium/big distributed systems so they able to prove their service reliability more efficiently using Scalyr Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataSet (by SentinelOne) solving and how is that benefiting you?

- We are able to know the issues faster than before.

- Able to minimize our downtime period.

- Able to mitigate and resolve issue within acceptable timeframe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
