Sumo Logic helps the security teams in a cloud-native environment and analyses and parses the machine log data. It ensures application reliability and security against the ever-rising threats in today's cyber security domain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One thing to dislike about Sumo Logic is its license pricing. And also, for heavy data sets, this tool has a data limitation. Also sometimes excludes the tags required to add to the metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about Sumo Logic is the monitoring dashboards and the easy integrations, the tool provides. It helped my team to get quicker alerts on application downtime and security issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing I dislike about Sumo Logic is the pricing. It costs us a huge bill for providing these services. There are more tools available that are cheaper but yeah they are not accurate enough for big scale systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Support is second-to-none, documentation is excellent, deployment is a breeze, and they're constantly innovating and adding new integrations in their app library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really don't have anything negative to say about SumoLogic's platform and I've been using it for 2 years now. This is with over a decade of SIEM/log aggregation administration experience using countless 3rd party products. If I had to get crazy and dig into my wishlist, I do wish they offered an "AlienVault-style" endpoint agent to collect logs on desktop/laptop OSes. And maybe a bit more SOAR-style workflows in the regular (non-enterprise) security monitoring and analytics platform, but they have an enterprise SIEM/SOAR product for that. And we can automate a lot with the native scheduled searches and integrations with various collaboration platforms (Slack, etc.) and incident response platforms (PagerDuty, etc.) that our subscription has.

Getting most machines set up logging with sumo was super easy. I really liked the fact that you could limit ingestion using regex before it even counted towards your limit. So I was able to specify specific logs amongst a group of unfiltered logs that I'd be able to not count towards my storage limits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The pricing scaled pretty atrociously for me. I ended up suddenly going over my limits and getting bills that were unexpected. And I found the prices rose very quickly from an enticing low cost entry level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The customization on the dashboards and the visualization of the data are very easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The process of getting all the data requires lots of product knowledge. Thankfully we work with a SOC that specializes in this software so they were able to visualize our data needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

slow when searching for a large date range across huge data set
costly and some fileting and aggegation option available in ELK is missing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. Centralized dashboard to find logs & errors.
2. Super quick to fetch the relevant data from the logs.
3. Proper documentation & user-friendly as it can be integrated with any application.
4. Support is also very responsive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. Sometimes, it lags in fetching data from custom dashboards.
2. Interface is confusing & messed with an overlap of multiple data cards.
3. Not compatible with all query languages. SQL is a must to use it. It can't support all other languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
