Case Study: Remitly achieves actionable insights and lower TCO with CrowdStrike Falcon LogScale

CrowdStrike Falcon LogScale at Remitly: Fintech Startup Transforms Raw Log Data into Actionable Business Insights

Remitly, a Seattle‑based digital financial services provider serving millions of customers across 135+ countries, needed to be—and already was—a data‑driven organization, but its homegrown ELK logging stack had become costly, complex and time‑consuming to extend and maintain. The company sought a commercial solution to simplify operations, increase adoption across SecOps and DevOps, and keep pace with rapid change.

Remitly chose CrowdStrike Falcon LogScale to ingest and analyze streaming logs from diverse systems, providing fast, index‑free search, advanced compression and a common observability framework. The move reduced TCO compared with Splunk and ELK, freed engineering resources from log maintenance, improved visibility for investigations and fraud detection, and enabled the firm to convert roughly 40% of raw log data into actionable business insights.
