Can't go wrong with LogDNA

Pros

  • 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.

Cons

  • The colors are ugly, both the dark and light theme. Needs better contrast and color combinations. It's also weird that dark mode has white dropdown menus on the filters.

Return on Investment

  • It has helped a lot when trying to debug issues with customers or internal employees. It's a positive overall because it has saved us a lot of time debugging issues.
