In brief, our collaboration with ServiceNow IT Operations Management is enhancing the effectiveness of our internal system and benefiting our shared clients.
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
In platform expertise and workflows, so we don't allows have to build everything from scratch.
Tight integration within ServiceNow (especially ITSM) but also brings information and data in from other sources, so I don't feel we are stuck in a proprietary hole.
Increased investment in AIOps and automation
Relatively fast time to value with out-of-the-box capabilities and automation.
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.
We achieved in financial what we are aiming for, as our targets are fulfilled, we solved many issues using ServiceNow, Creation of knowledge article improved, Ticket system got customized, overall survey from the customer is 4 out of 5, customization is done without any hustle and integration was very easy.
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.
We wanted it integrated with ITSM and ITBM. Prioir to that we used JIRA for agile development and SysAid for ticketing. So we started with converting SysAid. We went live with Vanilla ITSM. Then we could have a basis for ITOM. However, we needed to migrated from JIRA to ITSM. Only then we felt mature enough to examine ITOM, which required quite a lot of resources. You need networking, motoring, IT and Cyber security team members in your project!!
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.
