What it is

SolarWinds Loggly is a cloud service for monitoring, analyzing, troubleshooting, visualizing, and reporting on logs, with collaboration features. It collects logs without proprietary agents and accepts syslog over TCP, UDP, or TLS, as well as HTTP/S. Sources include public and private clouds, AWS, Azure, hybrid environments, devices, containers, Linux, Windows, Mac, and serverless systems. Loggly automatically parses logs and provides search, filters, statistical analysis, field exploration, charts, dashboards, and surround search. It integrates with Slack, GitHub, Jira, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, custom webhooks, and other DevOps tools. The fully functional 30-day trial needs no credit card and includes Enterprise-tier features; afterward, the account converts to the free Lite package. Lite lists 200 MB per day and seven-day retention. Standard costs $79 a month, billed annually, and includes 1 GB per day with 15-day retention. Data is automatically and permanently deleted at the end of the retention period.
