I’m curious to hear which services people are using for collecting logs for Elixir web apps in production. I enjoyed Timber.io but it doesn’t seem to exist anymore. I use the cloud_watch logger backend (GitHub - heyoutline/cloud_watch: Logger backend for Elixir applications · GitHub) on some projects but it always seems to be tricky to get it working on each project, it hasn’t been updated for a couple of years. I had a look at Logflare, seems interesting but maybe in the early stages, interested to hear if people have had success with this one.
Thanks!

We use Datadog for logs and metrics. It’s a bit expensive but our volume isn’t crazy high and we enjoy its features.

We use logflare.app Was easy to use and integrate and does the job nicely for us at a super reasonable price. Get excellent support for it when needed

Thanks for your input @benwilson512 and @dlobo. I’ve checked out Datadog and Logflare app some more since hearing your recommendations.
If it’s of interest to anyone else, I ended up using awslogs agent to send logs to AWS Cloudwatch for this project. Cloudwatch isn’t a very user-friendly way to review logs IMHO but it is cheap.
