LogicMonitor
LogicMonitor Envision unifies metrics, logs, events, and traces for infrastructure monitoring and troubleshooting across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments. Coverage includes networks, servers, remote environments, virtual machines, SD-WAN, databases, storage, and configuration. LogicMonitor says agentless collectors and automated discovery can onboard infrastructure without scripts or manual configuration. AI features provide anomaly detection, dynamic thresholds, usage forecasting, and intelligent alerting. The platform advertises more than 3,000 integrations, including Ansible, Cisco, Datadog, Dynatrace, Fortinet, GitHub, Grafana, Kubernetes, Linux, and Windows. Essentials starts at $16 a month per Hybrid Unit, with standard minimum quantities and terms, and supports up to 999 Hybrid Units. A Hybrid Unit varies by resource type. A 15-day trial is available, but there is no free plan.
