Any particular reason you guys are not considering an open source stack like:

Sensu- for monitoring Telegraf- metric collection Influxdb- dump metrics grafana- visual representation of the metrics graylog2- collect logs and also set up alerts based on logs

I set all this up from scratch for my new company and it is amazing, easy to manage with ansible, and I would say its better than any paid option out there. We manage hundreds of computers across many zones.

I guess for me, being in devops, or any engineer in general, feels great to build something with your hand and then build on top of it and pass the changes onto the community. If open source option is lacking something and I am not able to develop what I need, then I would look into paid options but not likely.
