"Super straightforward insights on your logs"
5/5
What do you like best about Sematext Cloud?

Just looking at the default graphs it was clear I can reduce my serverless resource usage on Vercel by 90%, by reducing the allocated memory. Sematext simply turns your logs in actionable data, out of the box. Costs, performance, it's all there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sematext Cloud?

Only small inconvenient I see is the mobile UI/UX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sematext log analysis simply works - easy to configure and reliable"
5/5
What do you like best about Sematext Cloud?

When we were looking around for managed ELK stack, we had tough time to just configure log shipper of many of them... well except sematext which worked out of the box! Their support has been very responsive and helpful. Once they were proactive to let us know there is something wrong in our config and helped us fix it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sematext Cloud?

Nothing really. But if I really have to be critical, then perhaps the user access management UI/UX could have been simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A must have monitoring tool"
5/5
What do you like best about Sematext Cloud?

We can monitoring our entire infrastructure without any impact on it.

A simple agent with a small foodprint is capable to do all the work for both logs and metrics.

You can decide what kind of logs to send or not, you can define the format of logs by multiple regex rules and use the kibana dashboard to access that data to create great dashboards. It's fantastic! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sematext Cloud?

There is a bit of work to do on the mobile side. There is no apps for it and the panel is not responsive.

When you start using a monitoring system like Sematext, you totally depend from it, so any issue or downtime will translate in a bit of out of control about the state of your infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Metrics-forward simplicity, full stack coverage."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Sematext Cloud?

Great support, easy monitor installation, clear metrics with a straightforward interface geared towards engineering concerns. Very simple to only use the apps in their monitoring stack you want, and nobody will bug you trying to sell you something more you don't need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sematext Cloud?

Not much! While pricing is certainly reasonable & competitive it is does get somewhat expensive at high volume -- which is typical of a cloud-based log system but the only thing preventing us from using it more widely in our organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Really simple setup + archiving"
5/5
What do you like best about Sematext Cloud?

Easy setup, S3 archiving, and low cost. Alerts are nice, too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sematext Cloud?

Not much to dislike, really. They're a simple service that does the thing they say they do extremely well. It'd be nice if they offered longer retention for low-usage systems (like, "7 days OR 5gb, whichever comes last"). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
