We have a pretty strong feature set for ingesting, parsing, and querying &#x2F; analyzing log (and metric) data. Our key differentiators from Sumo are performance (real-time ingestion, 60-second alerting, extremely fast query execution), pricing, and simplicity &#x2F; ease of use. We focus on engineering use cases as opposed to business intelligence, so we don&#x27;t (yet) have all of the group-and-join functions that Sumo provides for creating BI reports.<p>Speed turns out to be surprisingly important. We&#x27;ve had a lot of customers report that after migrating, usage across the team goes way up, simply because it&#x27;s much more satisfying to use a tool that gives quick results.
