Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Papertrail

We use SolarWinds Papertrail to aggregate logs from our Kubernetes Pods across all Nodes. It is being used mostly by the engineers to get insights into performance issues and other SRE-related metrics. Sometimes it's also used by the Support staff to debug customer's problems by looking into their specific logs.

Pros

  • Ease of setup.
  • Ease of use (overview, filtering).
  • Reliability.

Cons

  • I'd like to have multiple accounts.
  • More advanced alerting.
  • Higher visibility of performance issues.
  • No need to handle log storage, engineers can focus on the actual app.
We have used other services such as Coralogix before but love SolarWinds Papertrail for its ease of use and not-too-bloated features. This also makes our engineers and other staff use it more often.
SolarWinds Papertrail is very well suited for situations where you need to aggregate logs from different sources to a central place without much effort.
