LogicMonitor Reviews & Product Details

Senior advised me just to watch the alerts from the server. I'm Data Analyst intern, I don't care about pings on the server. I looked through the metric graphs, and noticed the “Predictive Forecasting” settings. The "Training Window" slider (30 days, 90 days, or customized offset) can be adjusted manually to train this Holt-Winters math model. This is possible even for changing confidence interval! If you're not one of the happy normal users, but you're a math nerd, you can see the HTML5 canvas training forecast line change when you change the training offset (if you don't, you can lock it), and that's pure heaven.

This is a beautiful feature that they don't publicise! The training slider is deep within the two sub-menus in widget settings. Other than that, if I export to CSV, it only includes historical raw data and not forecasted coordinate points computed. I don't like having to copy coordinates for my Python script!

I'm DevOps engineer, I am measuring everything in numbers. We have been using LogicMonitor for a total of 14 months. Best part is having an agentless collector architecture. We installed collector on 1 standard VM and in 2 hours it discovered more than 650 network devices & servers. This reduces manual set up time by 80% versus previously used agent based tool.

Ring logic is good. We used switches for dynamic thresholds for CPU and memory instead of static thresholds. This was the reason alert noise is going down by 62%. We were receiving 400 alerts a week from our on call team and now we are receiving 150 actionable alerts a week! Full support for integration with Terraform. Monitoring is "As Code". Very low API response time - always <50ms for metric queries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

pricing model is strictly on the number of devices. We have both Kubernetes and AWS auto scaling groups in place. Occasionally short-lived containers and or EC2 instances are being started for 1 hour, as a result that is consuming licence quota. Due to this, we are paying 12% more than we expected on our monthly bills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a Cloud Engineer, I am currently responsible to manage large multi-cloud (AWS & Azure) infrastructure for my organization. Best thing I like about LogicMonitor is the collector setup. We simply deploy one collector in our VPC and it automatically discovers all cloud resources. Does not require deploying agent on all servers or databases. Works with all cloud services such as ACKS, EKS, RDS and other cloud services.

Dashboards are very interactive and easy to build. I built a lot of custom dashboards for app teams and database teams to view their own metrics. Also, alerting is very fast and reliable. When any one of my pods is crashing or when the CPU hits 90, I receive Slack and PagerDuty messages immediately. Easy to set, but once it is in place it will be totally hands-free.

If your cloud environment is extremely large and you have thousands of resources then pricing is a bit on the high side. But sometimes we are getting alarm storm if we don't tune the default thresholds correctly during starting up.

Another thing is writing custom datasources. If default monitoring is not there, we need to write scripts in Groovy for custom datapoints. For beginners, learning Groovy for monitoring is very difficult and slow. Further, if you place too many graph widgets in a single dashboard, UI will be slow loading sometimes.

We have been using LogicMonitor in my company for some 1 year. The best thing I like is that it can monitor servers, network, cloud (AWS, Azure) and everything in one dashboard. Deploying collectors, and they auto-disonnect everything was really easy. The alerts are extremely speedy and PagerDuty and Slack integration seems to be doing wonder for our on call team. Dashboards are utterly flexible, I created separate dashboards for management, and for technical team. Saves me tons of time locating problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The loading of the UI with a large number of widgets on the dashboard is sometimes a bit slow. Also, the generation of custom (complex) datapoints/custome scripts for monitoring has some learning curve and in the beginning you might find it not so easy to understand. Also the price is a little bit on the expensive side when have a whole slew of devices to track. Occasionally, thresholds are not well tuned from the beginning, which can cause us false alerts.

The greatest advantage of LogicMonitor is its real-time alerting and extremely clean dashboard. As a Growth Marketer, my growth team manages high spending Google and Meta ad campaigns. Without our main landing page or sign-up API, we would forfeit a lot of money and leads.

LogicMonitor enables us to monitor our site performance and database condition as it happens. I can check the health of the main green/red line on my joint shared dashboard, instead of calling my DevOps team and asking, "Is the server working fine?". When there's any little lag in our checkout page we're alerted and we can pause the ads right away—the alert system is really quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the challenges is the steep learning curve for someone not necessarily in the tech space, so the tool is definitely aimed towards the core tech people.

Creating own dashboards for marketing metrics (such as a certain landing page load time) is somewhat complex. Setting up alerts was a bit tricky and ended up taking some support of ours in the IT department.

Furthermore, the charges are somewhat higher for medium-sized startups. It'd be nice if they could create a “plain service” for non-IT folks who just want basic monitoring of basic web sites and APIs which is simpler and cheaper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's ability to discover and monitor Cloud and container based workloads. Out of the box monitoring templates with best practice thresholds. It is also reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Certain types of customisations can be more difficult than in other products. Main thing is lack of access to backend database, which makes reporting challenging. In general reporting options are limited. SNMP trap support is very basic too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Best UI and performance of the tool to get to know about alerting

Great level of ROI by using this tool, Support and onboarding help is always great with LogicMonitor, It provides integration with Teams which is the best to get the alert directly in Teams channel. AI is introduced to make the process faster Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

there is nothing to dislike about LogicMonitor at this point of time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Logicmonitor gives me all the data I need in one clear dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Logicmonitor can be complex for custom solutions using application monitoring components. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The in-depth analysis it provides while I’m using it has made me a fan, since everything is available in a single place. It doesn’t throw random errors or false alerts, which I really appreciate. Integration is easy with ITSM tools, and the UI also works well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometime the information needed is deep inside and you need to go inside to fetch that which makes things a lil bit clumpsy and less usable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It offers a wide range of potential integration methods across both cloud and on-premises platforms and infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s difficult to simply suppress linked alerts without having to do additional configuration. Also, many of the more advanced features seem to require a higher-cost subscription tier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
