    NetApp
    If you have a NetApp or multiple NetApps, then you SHOULD use NetApp Active IQ. It is an invaluable tool. It acts like another FTE in our environment by keeping us informed. NetApp Active IQ is an excellent product; there are always areas for improvement based on evolving customer needs. NetApp Active IQ is a compliment to NetApp, pure and simple! Keep it linked at all times and make your account managers a part of your team; the product works so well, give your account managers something to do, have them keep you informed and have them help you update. I have seen a major change in NetApp account teams; they want to support their customers! Good Job NetApp!

    Sumo Logic
    SumoLogic is a fantastic log aggregator and analysis tool, a fine alternative to Splunk. Searching is powerful and mostly intuitive and results come fast. If you have application logs in clusters or Kubernetes pods that lose their logs every time they're restarted, Sumo is the solution for you

    Pros
    NetApp
    • Makes us aware of configuration issues we wouldn't easily be aware of otherwise.
    • Generates automated documents guiding us through patching and upgrades to prevent problems.

    Sumo Logic
    • Sumo Logic allowed for our InfoSec team to ingest logs from our CDN directly, in real-time, instead of massive compressed archives that were sent every two-hours (the only alternative at the time). Sumo Logic had an app for these logs, that allowed us to easily get an immediate payoff from the data, with canned dashboard and saved searches.
    • Sumo Logic has a fairly extensive REST API when it comes to log sources, source configurations, dashboard data, searches, etc. Their wiki for the API is usually kept up to date.
    • Sumo Logic, during the period of time I had used their product, had added the ability to configure agents via configuration files. This allowed customers to configure their endpoints, and modify the endpoints, with configuration management tools like Chef / Puppet / Salt. Beforehand, the only option was to always make changes either via the web portal or REST API.
    • The solutions engineers were extremely helpful, and easily reachable when issues would occur.
    • Users at our company found it easy to get started, working on new dashboards, scheduled searches, and alerting. The alerting worked well with our third-party paging tool.

    Cons
    NetApp
    • Full Stack Visibility - go beyond just the storage layer
    • Integration with 3rd party Observability Platforms
    • API Accessibility to create custom dashboards
    • Improved reporting and customization
    • More Granular Security and Compliance features

    • I like the help center, but I think if it had more GUI tools, it could help new users.
    • Pulling out data is sometimes hard to read, (Maybe if I knew how to export data better, this would not be an issue for me).
    • I would like better know-how on how to create reports that will help our business.

    Usability
    NetApp
    Despite some interface issues, it mostly accomplishes what we need it to accomplish - give us a heads up on problems in our environment and prepare us for upgrades/patches.

    Sumo Logic is very powerful but definitely requires some configuration work to get the most out of it. You can get a certification related to this, but it is definitely not something you can just throw together.

    I would give this rating because I attended a free Sumo Logic training at a WeWork in Chicago. I found the training very useful, and I learned a lot of features that I was not aware of before I went to the training. I like the idea that SumoLogic provides free training seminars. I am certified in level1, and I plan on certifying to level2.

    I was satisfied with the implementation, as at the time, it was the best way to implement the product with the available feature sets in Sumo Logic. User creation and management became more of an issue during continued use, instead of it being an issue related to deploying the product in our environment.

    You can see the list of tools above; NetApp Active IQ is a compliment to the tools. Not one monitor will take care of all your needs. I am ok with 3 dashboards for my environment. SolarWinds rotates in NOC mode, NetApp Active IQ is up on its own with all the NetApp's registered, and the Palo Alto Dashboard which monitors for vulnerabilities and risks. The tools work hand in hand in the environment, working both North/South and East/West, letting us know about anomalies, risks, and pending tasks to schedule. I love ALL my tools working together; lets me sleep really well at night!

    Sumo Logic works very well out of the gate. For a small business it has given us what we need. I worked at a larger company previously, and we produced so many logs we had to create a custom logging service to handle them all. Cost and availability are big issues when deciding between the different services, whether self maintained and hosted, or provided by another company.

    I've assisted several OneLogin customers with partner accounts to Sumo Logic. It has always been pleasant.

    Return on Investment
    NetApp
    • It has caught problems on our clusters before they became true issues. It was immensely helpful to be aware of the problem so we could resolve in advance.
    • It has provided specific steps to mitigate issues during patching and upgrades that we wouldn't have otherwise known about.

    • I can't think of any negative side effects other than it being SO slow sometimes, but compared to Splunk everything is slow
    • It's SO much cheaper than Splunk that the time it takes to query information is well worth it
    • In the times that we've had Sumo go down or stop logging information, we've found that we'd be absolutely lost without Sumo
