Finding out memory leaks for JVM has also been very easy when I was trying to get insights about GC and JVM pool. ----- ### "Worth switching from other logging aggregation" — 5.0/5 > **Chao** | *24 September 2020* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: I just switch from ELK. Sematext is a surprise to me. It is so easy to integrate and so easy to use. The web UI is so intuitive and the query syntax is so easy to use even if you are not a technical guy.

The way accounts are set up, where you have to log in then "become" the account owner to see your logs is strange, and needs to be explained to each new user. > > Sematext is a proven and reliable offering, without a single outage I can recall in the past 2.5 years. The customer support is amazing and queries are answered without fail within a couple of hours. They are constantly working on the product and increasing their offerings. They offer customers the chance to trial new products and give feedback, which is fantastic. We use Sematext for: \* Log Aggregation \* Monitoring and Alerting \* Incident Investigation \* Log Retention \* Debugging I love how we can easily set up alerts on logs and receive Slack or OpsGenie notifications when events occur. I would highly recommend Sematext as a vendor. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/95450/sematext-cloud?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/95450/sematext-cloud) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
