    LogDNA
    Anytime we need to make any kind of log on any platform that we use, LogDNA is well suited. It is primarily used for logging errors on our server but also used for checking issues within our iOS apps when we need to identify a critical issue that is occurring. The search feature is very very good!

    OpenSearch Service presents a cost-effective pricing model, allowing users to pay solely for their usage without being burdened by minimum fees or upfront commitments. Its seamless integration with various AWS services enhances its adaptability for a wide range of data analysis requirements and also I love using it isn't it enough.

    Pros
    LogDNA
    • The UI is simple to use and hasn't ever been confusing for anyone to use on our team.
    • Backups are great since we do occasionally need to access logs from the past and it has helped us solve some problems.
    • Searching/filtering is great and I've always been able to get exactly what I need.

    Usability
    LogDNA
    It's really easy to use and powerful. But at a few times, the UI may feel sluggish, which is a bit expected, since it's displaying live stream of heavy data.

    LogDNA
    It is very very good. They are responsive and very helpful. They also take the time to walk you through the issues you are having. But honestly, it is so straightforward that you rarely need to get support from their team. They are very helpful when you do need their support though.

    LogDNA was already setup when I started and it is offered through Heroku so that's why it was chosen. It's also cheaper I believe. Compared to Logentries, it does the same thing.

    Well as I said, Elastic is behind paywall now and managing OpenSearch through AWS is so seamless that we just love it. It gets updates faster we don't have to manage separate infra and many other settings to work with elastic search and some of the tools that it provides are better then them.
