Pretty decent and easy to use
Pretty decent product; easy to set up and easy to use. The centralised billing makes things a lot simpler. Definitely a superior product to AWS' own Elasticsearch offering, especially with in-built auth, monitoring and other tools.

Great product!
We started using the service about a month ago, and so far it has been an absolute delight.
Before joining the Elastic Cloud, we were using AWS's Elasticsearch Service, but we needed some of the functionality that comes with the Elastic Stack, so the decision to transition wasn't hard.
I can highly recommend trying the product.
Easy to configure and use
Switched to Elasticsearch Service on Elastic Cloud after using AWS Elasticsearch service. The main reason was the ability of using x-pack plugins.
A great option if you don't want to manage your ES cluster manually
I've been using ElasticSearch for about 3 years in production, and while it's nice to be able to control the hardware configuration of your cluster not all projects have the bandwidth to dedicate someone's time to tuning cluster performance.
The Elasticsearch service gives you the best parts of Elasticsearch while taking the overhead of managing clusters off of your plate. It's a great choice for small teams and for organizations without dedicated devops teams.
Great Service! Easy to Set Up and Use!!
Started with AWS's Elastic offering, but found it was behind and missing functionality. Eventually, I intend to manage the installation myself. In the meantime, this gets us up and running immediately. It would be nice to be able to provision more storage separately without provisioning more servers or other resources since it becomes cost prohibitive to store and analyze logs for the duration we would like to, ultimately this is the limitation that will make us move in-house eventually. But so far the functionality and ease of use have been just what we needed.
Easy to setup, great to use
We've used self-hosted ElasticSearch for years, but as we're working on migrating our applications to a cloud-hosted solution, we needed to decide how to host some of our services, such as ElasticSearch.
After much investigation, we decided to use the Elastic Cloud service, due to the easy of setup, management, and maintenance. The fact that a Kibana server comes with it and is ready to go as soon as your cluster is built really puts the cherry on top.
Easy to spin up
Easy to use product that takes away a lot of the headaches around running your own Elastic Cluster but you do loose some flexibility.
easy to set up, scalable, and fast
We've been using this for about 6 months now, and it was super easy to set up and configure, our search queries have been fast, and we haven't had any downtime. Highly recommended, especially for small teams like ours that need to get the Elastic Stack up and running fast and with minimal effort.
No customer plugin or bundle support
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.
Great Product!!!
this is really a good tools keep it up
In Addition, If the Logstash hosted in the same cloud it is far amazing
