Idea validation for my new startup
2 points by heyarviind 2219 days ago
Hi Awesome Folks,

I am working on a logging platform called https://loggie.io

While developing I get many questions like do small startups really need this kind of platform? As I am working in a big company and we use kibana which is much complex in features.

And I wanted something to be more simple to use for small startups.

Do you guys really use any logging platform for your startups?

Hey Arviind,

I doubt I'm in your target audience, but I thought you might appreciate some feedback since you aren't getting a flood of it yet.

First, it is unclear what kind of logging you mean. I'm not familiar with kibana. What kind of data are you logging? You may say anything, but I suspect that means "anything within a certain specific niche". Or it's manual logging, which is not super value-added. Which niche of users are you trying to address?

Second, I was willing to take a look at it, to answer some of my questions, until I hit the google login. Google login is great if you are looking for sales leads. If you are looking for product feedback, a lot of people are going to skip on that.

Logging here is like we use console log to debug our app on local, but what about in production... with loggie we simply push our logs to loggie and examine later.

We can send logs with severity level like info, debug, warning, error and fatal.

Just a minor question. The price of the yearly "basic" plan is just the monthly rate x 7, but the advanced plan has a ~ 10% discount when payed annually. Is this on purpose?
as this project is in development, i have placed dummy data... it will be corrected very soon...

What do you think about loggie?
