    Panda Systems Management is well suited for small to medium sized organizations looking for a tool to centralize asset management not only physical but also assist with rapid deployment of patches, applications, etc. It proves also to be very beneficial as permits (to and extent) to do troubleshooting without interfering or interrupting end users.

    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
    WatchGuard Technologies
    • Remote access. It's as good as any other on the market. It also allows for RDP connections which is a nice feature.
    • Inventory management. We get some great insight from the reports we can run.
    • Quick Jobs. If there's an app or service you use, there may be a quick job to install and update it remotely.

    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.

    • 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.

    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.

    Support Rating
    WatchGuard Technologies
    We rate and recommend Panda Systems Management not only because it is a very effective and very cost effective solution that pays itself for us (ROI) extremely fast, but also due to all reason described previously and possibly a few more I'm sure we missed here. I do have to says tech support for this solution sometimes leave a bit to be desired.

    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.

    Sumo Logic
    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.

    Panda is a bit of a greatest hits between some of these other things. I feel like GoToAssist has a stronger remote support option, but Panda is more convenient. Kaseya has a ton of features, but from an ease of use standpoint, Panda seems stronger. Spiceworks has a fine inventory system but it lacks features. I added Azure as well since we are a 365 shop and Azure supplies a lot of the same visibility that Panda does. However it is a completely different animal, and it's way easier to hop into Panda and get what you need than get waaay more data than necessary from Azure/Azure AD/ATP.

    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

    • It has facilitated us in the management of controls on the various clients, reducing the cost of human resources
    • Thanks to the alerts, in case of intrusion, it is possible to intervene promptly

    • 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
