It requires a lot of digging through KB's or an SME to share the tips (tribal knowledge) on certain parameters that one needs to use for getting specific search results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I m using gcp in our company and to see logs we are using stackdriver."
What do you like best about Google Cloud Observability?

I am using gcp and stackdriver from last two year and I am very much experienced with that. We can monitor our application health, traffic, error counts etc which is very useful to decide whether application is performing well or we need to look into this immediately to resolve any kind of issue which we observe during stackdriver stats monitoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Observability?

Sometimes I have seen that stats not updated property as compared to Grafana is doing better in that direction. Also UI interface can be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Using stackdriver for microservices logging"
What do you like best about Google Cloud Observability?

Both implementation and integration with google cloud platform are quite simple. For maven project it just requires certain dependency. It adds a lot of default info in header. Comparing with Splunk I think stackdriver logging lookup in GCP is much easier and user friendly with graphic UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Observability?

At first we had hard time to find the logger location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
