If you have a lot of money splunk is by far the best product on the market:
http://www.splunk.com/
Otherwise, besides loggly which I'm not familiar with, you might want to
look at http://logstash.net/ (free and open source). I think one of the
issues with logstash is that the data storage isn't optimal but it might be
fine in your case since you probably don't need to store that much data.
