Elastic Enterprise Review

  • March 10, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy how the web crawler extracts all of the information from the website and provides it via a search tool. The developer's life is made easier by not having to make any code changes to the search capability.
What do you dislike about the product?
They are giving very little trial time and charging a premium price for it. They must provide more time to investigate and modify the technology and services they are delivering as a high-priced service provider.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The full functionality of the website has been deployed, making it easier for clients to solve their problems by simply typing the content they need and quickly receiving the required outcomes. They don't have to look over the entire website to find a straightforward answer.

Migrate from ELK to Grafana

  • December 25, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
ELK dashboard it's like dragging a drop.
Once you have defined your query and fields, you can choose the one you want from a defined widget list and.. you will have a working widget.

ELK has been a solid product in the market for a long time, so the bugs in the search mechanism may minor
(I didn't find a bug )

In Log4J situation, ELK reacts fast and sends us a report with all clusters that possibly have this vulnerability and suggest a plan.

Support is also good.
It's answering fast, willing to help, and there is a vast community and documentation for everything.
So when you face an issue, be sure someone else has met with the same problem before, and he will probably publish an answer for your case.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cost.
It's costly to have ELK cluster, even for the most minor needs.

Maintenance:
We always need to take care of the number of shards, do maintenance and increase the cluster even if we have free space.
I took time for us, more than usual EC2 maintenance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need a mechanism for elastic search over millions of documents and a dashboard above this.
We used ELK and Kibana for that.
Then, each Client got their dashboard link and user management mechanism.

Searching Became Efficient With Elastic Search

  • October 21, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As I have already had the title as Searching made easy with Elastic search. The important part of it is that it stores the data in a file and thus makes the search more efficient and faster. We can search the table columns, we can also search for the specific text present in the document in a very faster way. but it would have become difficult in the case of relational DB's.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing I do not like is that it takes more time to sync the records. Suppose if I wanted to process say 10k records then it takes more time to sync the docs. Thus it shows some kind of inconsistency between data, but after sometime when we refresh, it shows the correct data.
Shard failures occurs so that become difficult to solve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Searching made easy with Elastic Search.
We can search for anything like a specific value from the document in an efficient and faster way.
Easy to Index.
Great support of the libraries.

No customer plugin or bundle support

  • August 31, 2018
  • Review verified by AWS Marketplace

Subscribed to Elastic Cloud via AWS Marketplace. Setup is easy and great.
However I am dismayed that the logstash-input-s3 plugin is NOT supported. I cannot ingest my AWS account logs from S3 into elasticsearch! I expected this to be supported as I'm subscribing through my AWS account.

Anyhow, figured out how to install a custom plugin and I was allowed to do so, but there was no option to actually upload the custom plugin I built. I learned that I need a Gold or Platinum subscription to be able to install a custom plugin.

No info on AWS Marketplace or in my Elastic Cloud Console to upgrade my subscription. Signed up to request information about the Gold/Platinum plans from elastic.co website.

Better tool to replace Google Search

  • December 21, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Swiftype is easy to install and can be quite powerful, depending on how you use it (results ranking, weighting). We use the Engagement Module as well, which is decent.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some limitations for styling that don't come out of the box. We had some issues with the Engagement Module pulling a different image (somehow it wasn't pulling the main blog header image) and that was a bit annoying to fix. There was ultimately a solution, but it was not very intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were no longer able to use Google Site Search because they started placing ads in the search results, so we had to explore other tools. After exploring Swiftype vs. another tool, this one stood out because of the more robust features with result ranking. We were also able to achieve something we didn't even set out to fix, which was the desire to have a "related content" bar at the bottom of all our blog posts.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You can try Swiftype for a trial period before deciding.

What do you like best about the product?
It was a good experience with Swift type search engine, it's very fast and easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't found any export report feature where we could get the report where it specifies how much link does it spidered till now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used it only for search engine purpose.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Should have export report feature as said.

Incredibly powerful, large learning curve

  • March 07, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Elasticsearch is a great product for building large and very powerful search... With great power comes great responsibility though... There's a large learning curve to get up and running, but overall it can really be worth it when you need to have powerful search features across a huge number of documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve can be very daunting (the first ES book was probably 4x thicker than any other programming book I own).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use elasticsearch to provide search functionality across multiple models on our site... We also use it to power all of our admin functionality. We've recently experiments with using it to index and build reports for our app analytics as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd say it's between Solr and Elasticsearch and es is a much more powerful tool.
