Make log management simple
What do you like best?
Staying on top of what is happening on more than a handful of servers would be nearly impossible without a service just as AL MDR especially when security is paramount. It not only simplifies the task of incident identification and remediation, it is an invaluable tool in creating regular security and vulnerability reports. Threats incidents are organized by severity and server asset with a straightforward interface for drilling down through the various levels to reach remediation details that an ordinary machine log would not provide even if you had the time and energy to dig through the thousands of events that might occur on a busy server daily.
The other factor that cannot be understated is the quality and responsiveness of the AL support team. Responses to product issues and even minor questions are almost always answered quickly within 24 hours. Transitioning to the product was a snap with the assistance of AL's migration team.
What do you dislike?
It can sometimes be a little tricky getting each server to connect reliably with the central AL appliance, but after things are connected, things seem to work well.
