"Google Stackdriver is a great tool to invest learning in order to monitoring your projects."
What do you like best about Google Cloud Observability?

What I like most about Google Stackdriver is the customizable dashboards you can create where it can compare different usages of different projects in a centralize enviroment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Observability?

What I don't like about Stackdriver is the lack of support it has. What I mean by that is since it is fairly new you're not going to find the answers to problems you run into on forums. I think some of Stackdriver is still in beta so there isn't a real community of users that you can go to for answers and the only real source of help is the documentation.

"Detailed Logger"
What do you like best about Google Cloud Observability?

When we started working on the stackdriver it was initially bit difficult as not much of the information is available however by the time we found this tool as much easier to check for the logs. One more good thing about the stackdriver is the history it keeps. Once we have a query setup in it, it becomes very easy for it to operate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Observability?

There is not much information available about the filtering and queries criteria. It should have more handy filters to be applied. Observed one more this is like sometime it crashes or doesn't show the proper records and we have to restart and login back in to check the records. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very easy to use, yet powerful with deep metrics"
What do you like best about Google Cloud Observability?

I found it very easy to use and setup. There are all sorts of deep and powerful metrics giving you great power when it comes to managing your resources. The dashboard is also well designed enabling you to rapidly deploy charts and the default sizing of the charts are great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Observability?

I wish it were more deeply integrated into the GCloud ecosystem, more like a default. I think that signing in over and over again is kinda boring. Another issue I discovered was that there are lags in the charts. If things were more realtime it could be better. I would also prefer tighter integration so that it is available by default without any resigning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

health check of VM's could be more real time

There is no api to create stackdriver monitoring workspace

direct export of metrics to gcs could be provided as an option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Observability?
