An easy solution to use for Kafka
What do you like best about the product?
Convenience and ease of use would strike me as the striking feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too expensive for me especially if you are an up and coming business, can not compete with rivals
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If you would like to have things maintained for you and do not want to tackle with resource allocation, performance etc... It is a good option.
We used managed services with Aiven
What do you like best about the product?
We used mongo and kafka managed services from Aiven. Things are quick. Ochestration has done with in few clicks. No need to worry about monitoring and all everything is self-managed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Data transfer charges between cloud accounts are a thing to worry. Need to check it further
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We got a managed kafka cluster. Managing a cluster on on-prem with having critical data is a huge task and need more bandwidth but Aiven made it easy
An evolving product
What do you like best about the product?
The services are straight forward to configure, theres a lot of documentation which helps one resolve doubts, however if this is not enough one can reach customer support to ask for guidance.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are two features missing which i found relevant they are governance tools and the Pay-as-you-use pricing model. I think that implementing these 2 things will create a more valuable product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a managed cluster it provides the running service with its infrastructure which is very valuable for us as we can focus on improving our event oriented architecture and team integration. Also cluster updates and administration is something we need to concern less.
So far so good, pretty intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and speed of configurating. Customer Support is also great.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, nothing stands out as a clear negative.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping to reduce costs
User-friendly experience
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use platform with amazing features and ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes product updates end up flooding the screen
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By providing secure and increased observability for data infrastructure
Easy to create and test different configurations
What do you like best about the product?
The website makes it easy to create and test different configurations. I also had an occation to use support and they where very responsive and helped me resolve my questions quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
For lower, not production envirments I would like to be able to create smaller configurations to cost optimize. Especially in development where one engineer maybe using the brokers for small tests.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating multiple non-production environments to support our SDLC.
Does its job perfectly.
What do you like best about the product?
What distinguishes aiven from other database providers is it's super quick to get a cluster up and running, followed by a generous 300$ coupon so you can tinker around and utilise the platform wholeheartedly. It also gives an option to run upto 25 clusters, so even in a free plan you could power your 25 side projects for free, which the other providers restrict to just one. I sincerely love their service and would continue to be a user for them.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think perhaps they could optimize their cluster closing time. Tho fast, I wish it'd be quicker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I could create multiple database clusters up and running and power my side projects hassle free.
Ease of Use coupled with power
What do you like best about the product?
Highly available Kafka features along with a significant level of redundancy. Seemless integration with a lot of popular tools like Prometheus. Its also abstracts the underlaying infrastructure management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't comment on drawbacks at present. Need to spend more time with the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Opensource, pricing & enterprise wise adoption
Happy customer but improvments could be done
What do you like best about the product?
how easy it is to setup topics, schemas, give acces etc. Easy integration
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to have a better interface to be able to read messages in a topic based on avro schemas. Now all we can see is encoded data, which is useless
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
exchanging data with different customers
