What is LogicMonitor?

LM Envision is a SaaS-based unified observability platform that enables digital enterprises to adopt a cloud-ready operating model for meeting key business demands. LM Envision provides clarity across hybrid enterprise IT, brings diverse IT and development teams together to solve complex problems, and enables IT to innovate faster while improving operational efficiency to the critical IT services they deliver.

LM Envision aims to offer an alternative to the tool sprawl that exists in many organizations today. By leveraging a platform that enables collection, analysis, contextualization insights and exploration of observability data across traditional and modern environments, it helps IT teams to remove the blind spots that come from siloed monitoring tools. And it enables IT teams to rally around a platform that offers a “single source of truth” to quickly triage and resolve problems, leverage AIOps to spot performance trends, and shift their time and investment from operation tasks to work that drives innovation for the enterprise.

LogicMonitor is great for monitoring IT infrastructure and alerting about any issues. We used it as part of our managed services offered to our SMB customers. It can gather data from a wide range of products that are deployed within any IT environment. It also provides long-term data points for historical review and finding trends.
  • monitoring a wide variety of products in IT environments
  • very flexible setup for alerting
  • easy to deploy and add devices to monitor
  • can get very complex to configure thresholds properly and get data points that are of interest
  • very slow to implement updated data sources for new generations of equipment
  • pricing and contractual terms are horrible (annual renewals, automatic pricing increases, locked in device quantities) rather than billing monthly usage
  • not very SMB friendly (lots of features not needed for small environments but there's no options for cheaper, more basic licensing, geared towards larger organizations and constant grows in monitored devices)
I would not recommend it to smaller businesses or MSPs that deal with small accounts. The cost to benefit ratio is not great for those. It's usually a good fit for larger organizations that can benefit from all the features LogicMonitor offers where the price point might be acceptable.
  • definitely adds a good amount of cost to any account which is not easy to sell to SMBs
  • it does give a piece of mind knowing that everything is monitored and alerts will go out before users know something is not working
We manage a number of SMB clients throughout Southern California with mostly on prem infrastructure from very small environments with just basic networking and a server to deployments with several servers and shared storage which all needs to be properly monitored. We were monitoring up to 150 devices with LogicMonitor.
It's very easy to deploy and add devices to monitor, however the biggest time consuming factor is dialing in alert thresholds and constantly adjusting global values or individual devices based on lots of factors. A very annoying issue is when LogicMonitor updates datasources, it will overwrite any custom edits that were done to thresholds. So either you don't update or you have to redo all your previous work. Updating the data sources is a very cumbersome process that's lacking the most simple features like a search and sort. To claim there is no maintenance and configuration required is an understatement at the very least.
LogicMonitor has not replaced any other tools or lowered the need for them. It's simply a nice monitoring platform to be alerted of any issues immediately when it happens and before users call and complain. Usually we're already aware and fixing the problem by the time we get calls about issues. It does help to keep the time to resolution very low.

I've reported bugs about not getting data from certain devices due to new hardware/software releases by the vendor. It usually takes a long time to get LogicMonitor to adapt the data sources to new products which can be very frustrating and while there's no data monitored, it may affect the ability to respond to issues in the same way you're used to.

We deployed the LogicMonitor to our customers' big data enterprise production system, our SaaS solution, and our WW infrastructure. Our goal of deploying LogicMonitor was to consolidate all our monitor solutions to a single SaaS-based solution with a single view across all our customers' SaaS and WW infra. This allows us to be more proactive and improve the overall uptime of the systems.
  • Easy to customize
  • Fast UI
  • Central monitoring system
  • Easy to use
  • Use more predictive solutions using AI and ML
  • Logs
  • Looks like an old UI
  • Build in data sources for SQL, Microsoft
  • DB monitoring
LogicMonior is a perfect fit to our needs. It's easy to use, can monitor our global hybrid infrastructure. Using customized data sources, we can monitor up to the application level and see the correlation between different components after we developed our own dashboard which was easy to use. We can monitor our end to end ETL process, performance and the overall health of our big data solution.
  • Proactive with good uptime.
  • We save hundreds of man-hours per year.
LogicMonitor was easier to customize per our needs. We could deploy it globally with some limitations we have (e.g. only one server per site can go outside the internet) and without a lot of external support.
LogicMonitor support is very good. Their response time is fast and we didn't have any issues.
We have hybrid infrastructure, on-prem owned by our customers, on-prem owned by our company, public cloud and private cloud. We monitor about 80 different locations and installations, with a total of about 450 servers, a mix of Windows, Linux, Ms SQL, Big Data platforms (Vertica and Hadoop).
The only maintenance you need to do is to import data sources or develop your own data sources. We didn't have any issue with the LogicMonitor back-end up-time or availability. The configuration is easy and self-exploration/customization. If you want to do advanced data sources, make sure you know how to write code, but Overall, this is an easy tool to use.
We moved from about 70 Microsoft System Center (SCOM) servers to a single central solution. We could reduce hundreds of man-hours using LogicMonitor.
The UI looks like a very old one

It was deployed by the IT Infrastructure department and is now being expanded to application support teams and other specialized groups. We have deployed it extensively to monitor physical and virtual servers, critical workstations, production services, all network equipment, and some security appliances so far. We are now implementing it to monitor application servers and services, databases, and webservices for uptime and performance. I've also been able to leverage it to give me thorough visibility into my SDWAN performance.
  • Alert rules
  • Performance monitoring
  • Escalation chains
  • Netflow monitoring
  • API integrations such as Meraki
  • Network mapping
I recommend LogicMonitor for ease of implementation and the simplicity to maintain the tool and database. Since the console is hosted in the cloud it was straightforward to stand up and add collectors inside our network. It doesn't have all possible features developed at this point but if you are looking for a good tool with a great team behind it to grow with your monitoring needs LogicMonitor is a solid option that is easy to use.
  • Provides valuable alerts in a timely fashion
  • Helps compare data points for quick troubleshooting
  • Ease of implementation saved us PS cost and FTE
LogicMonitor was much easier to deploy than other tools we've used in the past. Its interface is intuitive which saves us time and cost on training. It is also much easier to maintain than other tools. The scheduled scans with their range of configuration items help automate the regular discovery of new or changed systems.
We haven't required much support as the tool has met all our needs so far but when there is a question or issue it is resolved promptly. We have a great account management team and support compliments that well. No matter who I reach out to I seem to get timely and valuable responses/solutions.
We are largely on-prem but dispersed across 20+ corporate sites and 3 different major industries. We have a blend of several manufacturers: Cisco, Meraki, Palo Alto, Aurba, Arista, Ubiquiti, APC, Eaton, VMWare, Windows Server, SQL, Oracle, Opera, InfoGenesis, RTP, HP, Dell, Lenovo, and many others. So far we are monitoring about 1200 devices and plan to add several hundred more in the next 6 months. Our locations are spread mostly across the intermountain west but also reach toward the midwest.
LogicMonitor's design was the easiest to implement and use that I have found so far. Spinning up the main environment in the cloud was super easy and the deployment of collectors was fast. Maintaining the collectors and the database is made very simple by LM's intuitive interface and pre-configured suite of features. On-prem tools seem to cause us more headaches than they are worth meaning we don't have the time to get all their value. LogicMonitor is allowing us to grow and refine this deployment as we have time all while it keeps running at the level where we left off.
We are working to replace a few different monitoring and alerting tools to save us OpEx and time. We are a lean IT shop so every hour spent keeping tools up and running and talking to each other keeps us from actually making progress toward and larger goals. LogicMonitor has allowed us to meet our baseline needs quickly which makes it easy to then start leveraging the advanced features like automation.

This product has met virtually all of our needs. It was easy to implement and has been simple to support. Customization has been intuitive with many options available. They keep adding features and expanding available options. The future of LogicMonitor looks even better than it is today which is very promising. The management and support teams at LogicMonitor are always helpful
Yes
WhatsUp Gold, SolarWinds NDM, and Cacti.
We had the same results, more or less, out of all the on-prem tools that we've used in the past. They were cumbersome to implement, a nightmare to maintain, and often not reliable enough to just be there and working when we needed them. The LogicMonitor team dragged us along during implementation. We are a small team with very little free time, and in spite of us not being very available the deployment was smooth and fast. In addition, the ongoing maintenance has required minimal time which means we can continually spend time growing how to use and tune the system to best meet our needs.
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
Usability was the most significant. The system needed to be easy to deploy, maintain and use otherwise we wouldn't have time for it and wouldn't use it. LogicMonitor passed all of those tests with flying colors and has proven to be a solid choice considering the small size of our operational teams.
No. We went in knowing that the tool had to make our lives easier almost immediately, made that clear to the LogicMonitor team, and asked them to do the bulk of the implementation work (which wasn't much anyway). That is the reality of how our team operates and if the tool couldn't meet those needs I wouldn't want it.
  • Implemented in-house
No
Change management was minimal
With how easy LogicMonitor was to install we never hit change management thresholds. We only had to deploy a few servers and spend time on a few integration points for SSO and Meraki Networks. Beyond that, the configuration has remained contained to LogicMonitor itself and we work on it as we have time and need.
  • Early integrations with Meraki networks
  • Network discovery customizations
  • Structural organization inside the tool
The Implementation team kept us on track even when we didn't have time. They made up for our lack of focus at times and boiled everything down to simple tasks which enabled a quick deployment and an easy transition to regularly using the tool. They also kept us in a post-implementation for a while after which ensured we have multiple support options after go-live
No
I would say that LogicMonitor proactively provides exceptional support by providing a high-quality product from the start and proactively resolving issues and adding features such that by the time I might have an issue it has already been addressed for me. I have required less support from LogicMonitor than for any other tool that I operate regularly. When I do need to contact support they are prompt and helpful.
  • Adding systems to be monitored
  • Creating alert rules and escalation chains
  • Managing users and permissions
  • Managing some systems via API integration
  • The initial design structure needs to be understood
Everything about the tool has been easy and straightforward from implementation to discovery scans, adding users, setting permissions, creating alerts and escalations, accessing devices and their gathered information, and maintaining the database of systems being monitored. The UI is intuitive and simple to learn. The features and use of them are well thought out. The capabilities are complex such that you can highly customize the system if you would like to.

Our company uses LogicMonitor for all our sites globally. We have hundreds of devices being monitored with this solution. It does provide good monitoring and alerting for network devices, servers, and infrastructure overall. SMS/Cellphone call to notify about critical alerts is definitely a useful and powerful tool for our company.
  • Monitoring
  • Historical Overview/Usage
  • Alerting
  • Dashboard widgets can provide more customization
  • Datasources for new software need to be updated usually with support help
  • Ways to setup an alert or notification based on widgets triggers
Network and server monitoring and alerting are the best scenarios for LogicMonitor capabilities and features. I wouldn't recommend for telephony call records lookup (haven't seen this anywhere else). The interface is quite intuitive and user friendly. It's definitely a must if you need to make sure all components and links are up and working as expected.
  • Avoiding disruptions is definitely key in our business.
  • Makes troubleshooting easier
  • Dashboards are great at displaying key information.
My vote is towards LogicMonitor monitoring and alerting. Splunk is a good Syslog tool but I don't see the number of features and capabilities you can achieve with LogicMonitor--especially infrastructure dashboards.

Applications might compare in alerting but are not even close in regards to monitoring and notifications via SMS/email and cellphone (IVR voice).
They have one of the best support departments I have seen in a long time. Every single ticket has been taken care of in an amazing and friendly manner. Overall, I'm happy with the support quality and reliability. Most of the time I go with chat since it provides an easier way to address any questions about capabilities or how-to.
We have a hybrid environment in which LogicMonitor monitors hundreds across all our regions and markets. EMEA/AMER and APAC regions are fully covered with LogicMonitor, either cloud or on-premise devices (network or servers). We have followed the support with LogicMonitor's assistance on useful dashboards.
Our LogicMonitor implementation was quite fast, initially setting up a few servers and devices and then growing exponentially into hundreds. Maintaining LogicMonitor has been quite easy, usually manually not performing auto-discovery on subnets. I'm still learning a trick here and there related to adding devices in a more consistent and effective manner.
LogicMonitor has been able to help us with new dashboards that can present all types of critical information related to the network and servers. This real-time visibility is vital to reduce mean time to troubleshoot and provide a quick resolution in minutes. We can rely more on LogicMonitor than other apps that can assist with alerting.
