Last9 Reviews & Product Details

We were growing very fast and we were not able to keep up with the errors we were facing. We wanted something that was OpenTelemetry native and easy to use for everyone in the team. The integration is straightforward with awesome documentation and team support!

Last9 was kind of our saviour as it is so easy to set up and team is always a message away! They have guided us from the start with such patience and candidness that we knew we made the right choice.

All the log, traces, and dashboards give us immense confidence and have helped us identify and fix issues with ease. Every detail is noted and never lost and hence we have significant confidence to operate at scale.

We use it very frequently ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the current set of features are good, I would love to have something more in terms of ML use cases so that we don't have to go to any other vendor for the same. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using Last9 for 6 months, and it has proven to be invaluable for debugging purposes. It has significantly reduced our debugging time, especially during critical issues.

Before implementing Last9, we frequently struggled with database connection issues that were difficult to diagnose. After integrating Last9, I can now effectively track connection states across our services. The platform provides clear visibility into connection states (idle, stuck, busy) for each service, allowing us to quickly identify and focus on problematic services.

One of Last9's standout features is its robust alerting mechanism. When our database connection pool approaches capacity, Last9 automatically triggers alerts in our Slack channel. This proactive notification system has greatly enhanced our system reliability by allowing us to address potential issues before they become critical.

The platform has transformed our debugging workflow from a time-consuming process into a streamlined, efficient operation. It has become an essential tool in maintaining our system's reliability and performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One minor drawback of Last9 is its user interface, which isn't particularly user-friendly. I find it somewhat challenging to locate specific metrics and logs within the platform. The navigation could be more intuitive to help users quickly find the information they need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have found Last9 to be very helpful for debugging, with the integration of custom graphs clarifying our specific use cases. The alerting feature also provides valuable insights into system activity, which is crucial for identifying issues. As an engineer, this tool has significantly assisted me in debugging problems. it also offers a wide range of features that can be used for comprehensive system monitoring.

While Last9 is very effective, it can take some time to learn and fully use all its features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1.The latest logs dashboard is very facinating

2. Also the UX is very intuitive for some complicated screens

3. Templates for basic and advanced dashboards are really great for newbies, who are new to these things

4. Amazing support from Internal Team (Prathamesh and Aniket)

5. As you have integrated Grafana Dashboard hence learning curve is reduced and hence it is quite easy to create dashboards.

6. Would like to address cardinality explorer is a key feature as well, I can see which metrics are busy and are being used

There are many interesting features provided like macros, dropping data, forwarding data are nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Multiple loaders of the same page

2. Works fluent in high speed internet but can take lot of time loading log dashboards or dashboards with large data in slow data conn

3. I receive alerts right 5mins after the incident or error has occured and I couldn't find the settings how can I make them instantaneous (I can see that data reaches to last9 very quickly but did not understand how to configure those as per my use case)

4. At some places I felt that documentation is outdated (AWS Cloudwatch Metric Stream)

5. Some of the dashboards cannot be imported to Alert manager because of some issues with the variables (APM dashboards)

6. Scheduled search cannot be categorized where I want to search (it search the entire data) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can easily find logs for services with errors. The dashboards are awesome! Using the dashboard, I can easily view the performance of each service, see which services are in good health, and identify those with issues. Additionally, I can see which services take longer to respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a new user, it can sometimes be challenging to understand the system and set up the dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As the CEO, I appreciate the ease with which I can quickly check the status of our product and spot any issues without needing a deep understanding of our backend. Our engineering team strongly recommended it, and given how easily I can use it, the recommendation makes sense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing really at this point. But would love to get more features on the ML front given our product is very ML heavy.

I would also appreciate easy way to give a summarized note of the issue on email so that one understands what is the issue without opening dashboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Last9 makes debugging a breeze with their clean, easy-to-read graphs, and their new UI makes everything even better! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, now that they've improved their UI, I can't think of anything I don't like about Last9! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Real-Time Changeboards to monitor systems during live events

2. Service Discovery automation to discover components and then automatically set alerting

3. Reliable alerting that we trust using Alert Studio

4. High Cardinality Support with Streaming Aggregation

5. Uptime and Reliability of the Levitate Platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. More control over Levitate scaling levers on demand

2. Terraform provider for automation APIs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- High Cardinality workflows with Streaming Aggregation helped us monitor every tenant without any significant efforts on data instrumentation

- Uptime and Reliability of the Levitate Platform

- Awesome Customer support

- It just works as expected and promised! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike.

Waiting for a new feature LAU which will help us control the data flow without any changes in the code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Levitate is a budding project whose trajectory is very inclusive to the custom needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Alerting is tricky,

Maybe if there could be more modularity on creating an alert, if alertmaneger's ui could be incorporated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
