"Clarity-Driven Reliability That Empowers Confident Teams"
What do you like best about Last9?

I appreciate how Last9 focuses on addressing genuine reliability issues rather than simply introducing more dashboards and unnecessary noise. The platform comes across as carefully designed and geared toward clarity, which enables teams to work more intelligently and with greater confidence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

I don’t have any major complaints, but one aspect that could use improvement is the internal documentation and the number of manual steps involved in workflows. If there were more structure and clearer guidance in these areas, I believe productivity could be enhanced even more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A critical piece of our new telemetry system"
What do you like best about Last9?

last9's sales/support team was incredibly helpful in setting us up / getting us started using the platform. It has been intuitive and most importantly powerful to use. Has done a great job helping us cut through the massive amounts of telemetry data our system produces, and the insights we've gained from it have already highlighted bugs in our system and helped us identify and resolve outages before they got out of hand.

Last9's high cardinality data features made it stand out from other products we considered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

So far all the features I've personally needed have been there.

Data is stored on and transits through last9 servers, which means for our data privacy requirements we have to sensor user data before we send it to last9. It would be great if we could self host some parts of the software such as specific trace data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable platform for proactive observability and incident management"
What do you like best about Last9?

Last9 makes it incredibly easy to gain visibility into system health with its well-structured observability features. I really like how the platform emphasizes reliability as a product, helping teams move from reactive firefighting to proactive monitoring. The dashboards are intuitive, setup is smooth, and the alerts are precise without being overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

The learning curve for new users can be a bit steep, especially if they’re not already familiar with SRE concepts like SLOs and error budgets. Some advanced features could use more detailed documentation or onboarding support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable, Insightful, and Easy to Work With"
What do you like best about Last9?

What I like best about Last9 is its focus on actionable reliability metrics. Unlike many monitoring tools that overwhelm you with noise, Last9 surfaces only what truly matters. The platform’s SLO/SLI tracking, fast query performance, and ability to correlate failures across services make debugging much faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

Some dashboards take a moment to load when there is a large dataset, and a few features could use better documentation. However, these are minor issues compared to the overall value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Understanding Code Flow and Debugging"
What do you like best about Last9?

What I like best about Last9 is how convenient it makes debugging. Recently, I had to investigate an incident across nearly 20 microservices. With Last9, it was easy to search for the exact service I needed and then check the logs to trace the issue. That saved me a lot of time compared to digging through everything manually. The platform itself is pretty easy to use and straightforward to implement, so getting started didn’t feel like a heavy lift. I also find myself using it quite frequently because the features are practical and actually helpful for day-to-day debugging. Integration with our existing setup was smooth, and whenever I’ve needed help, their customer support has been responsive. Another thing I really value is data privacy—after some research, I found that Last9 keeps everything encrypted, which gives me confidence that my company’s data is secure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

Honestly, I haven’t found anything major to dislike. The only small issue I’ve noticed is that sometimes there’s a bit of latency, and occasionally the data doesn’t update right away, so I need to refresh. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Observability platform with unmatched support and flexibility"
What do you like best about Last9?

What I value most about Last9 is that it truly feels worth the price we are paying. Their pay-for-what-you-use model is transparent and they even worked with us to personalize the experience and bring costs down to a level that suited our needs. The team went above and beyond by staying in touch with us every day during setup and optimization. That level of support is rare, and it really helped us adopt the platform smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

There’s honestly not much to dislike, but if I had to pick one thing, it would be that because Last9 is evolving so quickly, sometimes it takes a little time to catch up with all the new features. That said, their team is very responsive and helps us navigate any changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Integration and Debugging with Last9"
What do you like best about Last9?

Last9 is very easy to integrate and debug, The website UI is very feasible to understand and debug the issues. I have used the spans and traces features in last9 which very useful to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

I usually faced latency issues while checking the logs for a services with high volume of logs. And they need to provide a source of truth to understand the if all the logs are getting propagated or they cutting it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very helpful to understand the flow and debug"
What do you like best about Last9?

What I really like is how easy it was to get started — the implementation was way smoother than I expected. It plugged into our existing stack without much fuss, so I could actually start using it instead of spending weeks setting it up. I use it pretty regularly, almost daily, because it gives me a quick read on reliability and highlights the issues that actually matter to users. The SLO-first approach makes it super clear what’s important, and the customer support team has been really responsive whenever I’ve had doubts — I’ve always gotten clear answers fast. Overall, it feels like a developer-friendly tool that makes my life simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

The only tricky part for me was the learning curve in the beginning. Some of the concepts around SLOs felt a little overwhelming, and I had to spend extra time figuring out the best way to use them for our setup. I also think the docs could use more hands-on examples, which would’ve made implementation even easier. I use it pretty often now, but early on, I found myself not knowing which view to check for certain questions. Support helped when I reached out, but I think a bit more in-product guidance would go a long way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"How last9 is Saving hours of Debugging Time."
What do you like best about Last9?

I am a Associate Developer and need more context on product to enhance my learning. Last9 has been a great helping tool to achieve that where i can see all the flows in multiple microservices, filter them by tima and log levels. I have been using last9 almost daily. It is easy to integrate and is one time process. once integrated i can just add a log in my codebase and i can track the flow in real-time. it also has rehydration that is very helpful and makes it very easy to get logs for a certain time range. Query and send to slack features are also very useful for solving customer support tickets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

The tail logs function is something i have never used. For 20+ microservices, its hard analyse all the logs coming in real time.

Other than that, last9 do what it should do, Give structured logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cost-effective observability with fast support and growing features"
What do you like best about Last9?

We started using the Log Analytics feature in the Last9 Levitate platform, and the team has been consistently adding capabilities that quickly addressed our needs. I appreciate the transparency into their product roadmap, their availability for quick and responsive support, and the cost-effectiveness of the platform. The diverse integration options also make it very easy to get started without heavy setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Last9?

Since the Log Analytics feature is still relatively new, it currently lacks some of the advanced functionality that larger vendors offer. However, with the pace at which Last9 is building, I believe it can soon reach feature parity while maintaining a much more cost-efficient approach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
