Lame but powerful option: `tail -f /logfile.log | grep -A10 -B10 <interesting thing>`. (prints 10 lines before & after search lines). The most powerful feature I've had in log management is the ability to search for what was interesting, and no tool can provide you a "this is interesting" button. If you've got performance concerns ripgrep is a drop-in grep replacement that's very fast.
