Logentries Blog

I'm using Papertrail and the experience so far is not so great. Dashboard UI looks like it wasn't updated since 2005. Also, the free plan is a joke: 10Mb of logs per day. When I started I managed to stay under this quota, but recently I've added a couple features that spits additional log data. Now I have to either filter some valuable logs or become a paying customer (which I can't afford for such thing as logging). Looking to migrate to https://logentries.com At least their free plan offers 5Gb/month.

We used to push application logs to https://logentries.com/ "With our free plan you can send up to 5 GB of data per month and store the last 7 days of data. The free product is available at the end of your unlimited 30 day trial." https://www.splunk.com/ allows 500MB/day free.

TFA aside, centralized logging is super useful for debugging a variety of issues. There are a number of hosted options, and setting them up isn't too hard. It usually involves configuring you're application's log device to talk to the remote service, or configuring syslog on your app servers to forward logs to said service. See https://logentries.com/ for an example

I'm using http://logentries.com The one I really wanted to use/like was http://scalyr.com. However even after their redesign, I still can't use their query language. With LogEntries, it's pretty natural.

Log management can be done for free at the beginning at https://logentries.com/ It's a bit limitted, but saves you logging into the specific servers and it does have email notification.

I have tried a bunch of them and settled with https://logentries.com

We got frustrated with the UI on Loggly and wound up moving to Logentries (https://logentries.com/). I've not used Papertrail, so can't compare to them, but it's significantly easier to use than Loggly, they've been kind to us through the odd overage, and it does what we need it to do (Centralise a load of application logs and allow us to search over them and set alerts). The live tail feature is nice as well.

https://logentries.com/ has worked out well for us, at least at the small scale we're using it now. Pricing is reasonable. The important feature for us is S3 archiving. They'll keep your logs online for a certain period of time, and then copy the old ones to S3. You don't have to get rid of anything, and you're still able to keep costs under control.

> Logging, logging, logging - I can't stress on this enough. There is no easier way to offload, view, filter, alert and search than logentries: http://www.logentries.com

Hey there! So this set up will catch all of your EC2 instances and find all the associated logs. It actually is a "run once catch all" deal. One of our engineers would be happy to give you more technical detail if you want. Shoot an email to [email protected]. Also, is you want to give it a try yourself, we have an unlimited free version for 30 days available on our site that has le_aws available, so you can try it for yourself. Check it out: https://logentries.com Note: The first picture in the blog post is an actual screen shot of the script discovering all of one of our engineer's EC2 instances automatically. Thanks!

600$/month for a SaaS "Basic" plan is questionable, to say the least. Get your pricing right. For 600$/month I can easily allocate resources within my company to come up with a tailored solution for my needs.

I've been assembling a list of these lately for a book that I'm working on.
