## About InsightOps
Ridiculously easy log management is just the beginning




## InsightOps Reviews
  ### 1. Logentries is a must to not get lost in logging

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Christophe N. | Technical Team Lead (API), Leisure, Travel & Tourism, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 08, 2016

**What do you like best about InsightOps?**

Logentries is a great way to quickly find and analyse anything in your logs. With a growing business, our logs are just too big to search using basic tools. Logentries allows us to quickly find errors, analyse trends using grouping and many aggregation functions. It is often our go-to tool to identify the source of issues in our production environment. 

**What do you dislike about InsightOps?**

Query results using more complicated grouping are often bad. We've seen from time to time a simple count would return wrong values on longer timeframes. 

**Recommendations to others considering InsightOps:**

Make sure you group all your applications under the same account. Use IDs shared among applications as much as possible to get cross applications logs easily. 

Don't hesitate to graph using the aggregation functions. Really great tool to see evolution of a metric over time.

**What problems is InsightOps solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Debugging problems in production. Searching through logs of multiple applications at the same time is not an easy task without a tool like Logentries.

  ### 2. Great aggregate logging

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nick G. | Founder, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 05, 2017

**What do you like best about InsightOps?**

I like that I can create charts from my logs, it gives me a quick way to get metrics based on application events without having to set up metrics.

**What do you dislike about InsightOps?**

Their query interface is cumbersome at times. Difficult to enter search queries, pick groups, and set dates.

**Recommendations to others considering InsightOps:**

It's great if you also want to use it for basic metrics and event aggregation

**What problems is InsightOps solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Logentries helps me respond immediately to users upon errors and fix issues quickly. It's also the primary source of metrics as well as logging.

  ### 3. easy and good for log searching of the server in single place

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gaurav S. | Senior Software Engineering, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 25, 2016

**What do you like best about InsightOps?**

Logentries is to use, it hava a good UI/UX and we can find all server log on one place.
It provide regx to find various kind of string in logs. Scale on demad featrue provide when we have havey traffic on our app so we can grap all the data log in one place and after some time it can be switch to AWS S3.

**What do you dislike about InsightOps?**

It can be make faster to search the input string.
Price is to high when we want to scale or if we have large amout of data log then logentries plans are costly.

**What problems is InsightOps solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Storing all server log in single place and finding information, logs of the server is very easy with good UI/UX.

  ### 4. Simple and Well Priced Log Management

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Micah H. | Site Reliability Engineer, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 20, 2016

**What do you like best about InsightOps?**

Logentries hits the perfect sweet-spot for us in terms of functionality, pricing, support, and management. Its app is intuitive and its query language (LEQL) is powerful, yet easy to use for simple cases. 

Some great features they have are the inactivity alerts and anomaly alerts. Anomaly alerts are great, especially for cases like "Alert me when the number of HTTP 404 errors goes up by 50% relative to my total traffic"

Their support is quick and knowledgable. I've personally filed over 15 support tickets and they have always promptly answered.

**What do you dislike about InsightOps?**

I wish Logentries had a more fully featured API for creating alerts and tags. They've told me this is in the works, but it has been over 6 months. 

Queries over longer periods of time can seem to never resolve and time out especially if there are a lot of entries.

Their application lacks advanced administrative features such as restricting specific users to specific streams, or even having defined roles for users. For a smaller organization, this is fine, but can be a blocker for larger teams.

**Recommendations to others considering InsightOps:**

Take a look at other vendors and see what meets your exact needs, but Logentries provides a good balance of price and features.

**What problems is InsightOps solving and how is that benefiting you?**

 We really needed something that:
* Could aggregate streams from multiple VMs
* Wasn't prohibitively expensive
* Had inactivity alerting
* Had an API to program against

Our developers enjoy using the web UI for querying and we strongly rely on their alerts for anomaly and inactivity reporting.

  ### 5. Easy logging solution (especially if you're using Heroku)

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Hari G. | Lead Technical Architect, Telecommunications, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2016

**What do you like best about InsightOps?**

We're using Logentries with Heroku, and setting it up was basically one-click, and it had pretty much everything I was looking for - live tailing of logs, quick search,and a dashboard which displays all the important counts in a clean fashion. It also parses JSON strings automatically, and makes it possible to query using values within - which is pretty slick, and is useful when tracing events through the log.

**What do you dislike about InsightOps?**

Nothing much, to be honest. We're still on their free plan because the basics are covered, but there are a lot of things are locked out. Totally understandable. We'll be upgrading when statistics become more important.

**Recommendations to others considering InsightOps:**

Just try it out. The free trial covers most of the basics, and it's a cinch to set up (especially if you're using Heroku).

**What problems is InsightOps solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Visibility into trends. We have a separate tool to monitor issues (also monitors the logs), but Logentries makes it easy to notice patterns of changes - basically what any good log analysis tool should do.

  ### 6. Great logging tool for ops and devs

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Clément N. | Head of Marketing, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2016

**What do you like best about InsightOps?**

Very easy integration for both ops and devs. I personally used LogEntries with NodeJS. The installation with NPM was really easy.

**What do you dislike about InsightOps?**

I've experienced some delays before getting my first logs. It seems to be the case with NodeJs, but my coworkers didn't get that issue.

**What problems is InsightOps solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Logentries allows me to collect logs easily and analyse them for production matters. That's a huge step since logs saved in files.
