LogDNA released The Observability Challenge report last week. The report is based on a survey by The Harris Poll conducted among 200 senior engineering professionals responsible for observability and log data management in U.S. companies.

• Enterprises use three or more tools on average to access their log data. The number is higher among companies spending more.
• 66% of the respondents say their logging tools are not easy to use,  67% responded that it is difficult to collaborate, and 58% find it challenging to route security events.
