Best data visualization tool!

  • May 30, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Grafana is very useful for visualizing and analyze vast quantities of data from a simple web interface. Also, it allows to view data in real time with Grafana Live, feature that we use a lot to debug problems in our systems.
It supports many types of data sources, but I think it’s best used with InfluxDB.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not allow you to customize the list of predefined time periods. So every time you need to see a specific interval, you need to input the period of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allowed us to visualize data from the sensors in our infrastructure in real time

Easy tool for monitoring

What do you like best about the product?
The notification tool, you can link with slack :D, that's useful if we reconigze the errors in our projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
No docs in spanish :c something when you are setting the dashboards should be good have more docs about it or docs about to implement Grafana with languages like JS, I know grafana use influxdb to save the data, but examples of that would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Have one place with all relative information, this before use the graphs provided by AWS

Provides good alerts and is useful for monitoring user traffic and visualizing metrics

  • May 09, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use it to monitor user behavior. We have AI LLM models in NVIDIA Triton. NVIDIA Triton gives us some metrics. These metrics are integrated with Grafana and Prometheus. We monitor user traffic to visualize metrics like p99 latency, increase in user and CPU performance, utilization of the GPUs, RAM utilization, and CPU utilization.

What is most valuable?

We use the free templates of the solution. We have tested some alerts on metrics. We like the alert features. We plan to use it more. Slack and PagerDuty alerts in Grafana are helpful.

What needs improvement?

It was pretty complicated to integrate the product into our workflow. We relied on templates we found on the GitHub open-source repositories. It is pretty hard to integrate Grafana and set it up according to our use case. The solution must provide tutorials and guides.

We are a small team. We don't have the time to learn Grafana end-to-end, but we want some guides to help us use it quickly. Prebuilt templates will help a lot. The product must provide more alerting metrics. It must be integrated with iOS and Android mobile phones.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for four months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The tool’s stability is quite good. I rate the stability a nine out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate the tool’s scalability a six out of ten. Scaling is complex. We have four developers in the organization who use the product.

How was the initial setup?

We have good Docker experience, so the setup was pretty straightforward. We had to run a couple of Docker commands. We integrated everything with Docker Compose. As we scale up, the setup will get complicated. If the number of users increases, we might consider switching to the cloud.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Compared to Elasticsearch, ELK Stack, and Logstash, Grafana is pretty strong. Grafana is way ahead of its competitors. SigNoz is also an alternative to Grafana and Prometheus. SigNoz is pretty easy to set up.

What other advice do I have?

We haven't worked or dived deep into the documentation and tutorial. I will recommend the product to users willing to take the time and patience to set up and learn Grafana in-depth. There are a lot of tools that we can use to build excellent integrations and get the most out of them with little knowledge. However, to leverage the value of Grafana and Prometheus, we must learn the tools in depth. It will save us time, and we can get much value if we invest time and effort. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

Amazingly easy to use and visually appealing

  • March 31, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We are using Grafana to build visualizations for many types of data on our systems. The basic usage is of course DevOps DevOps-related graphs and visuals, but we are also using it to display line of business data dashboards. Grafana is easy to set up, easy to use, and produces high-quality graphs and dashboards. Its ability to connect to multiple data sources is an important feature, as well as the ability to extend it using external plug-ins.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I find less appealing is the pricing of the enterprise version and the fact that some important plugins are only available on the enterprise or cloud versions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Grafana mostly to build and display visualizations and dashboards of our line of business data. While this is not the common use of Grafna it does the job very well and in many cases better than other tools in the market. We have many kinds of dashboards used by different stakeholders in the company and we are able to use them daily to keep track of our business results.

A tool that users can understand and learn quickly to use

  • January 18, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

I use Grafana since it is interconnected with Zabbix. I also use Grafana for the dashboard of machines from VMware and for some network devices connected to Zabbix.

What is most valuable?

The ability to use Grafana with Zabbix is a valuable feature for me. Zabbix provides me with alerts and information if something goes wrong, while Grafana offers a better dashboard that is more stable. If you know Grafana well, it can show you everything, like the uptime of different sources and other areas.

What needs improvement?

I have a problem with Grafana in the area of documentation. There is a problem in the area of some graphs where you connect elements. With Grafana, there is only one name that can be included for ten hours. In Grafana, only one big field with one text name is shown in the documentation. When it comes to production, it is only for a period of time that some fields on each side give the information they have. I researched on Google and other forums and saw that people face problems when they can't connect a field with the same value. The aforementioned area in the tool needs improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Grafana for nine months. I am a customer of the product.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have always had a stable version of the product. In general, I have not had any issues with the product.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The technical personnel in my company use the tool, and it is possible to add or delete devices and other statuses in the solution. Around five people in my company use the product.

How are customer service and support?

I have always used the online forums or the internet to find information related to the product. I have not contacted the tool's technical support.

How was the initial setup?

The product's initial setup phase was very easy.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

For me, Grafana is a cheap tool because I don't have to spend much time learning the product since it is a simple solution. I don't know if there are different paid versions of the product.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

My company chose Grafana over other products in the market considering its integration capabilities with Zabbix, good documentation, and the many topics about the tool that are available on the internet.

What other advice do I have?

I would suggest Grafana to those who use Zabbix because it helps users get a lot of information on networks and resolve a lot of problems.

I could do everything in Grafana with the help of graphs and documentation and get information on different types of devices.

I rate the overall tool an eight to nine out of ten.

Grafana integration

  • December 19, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The visualisation of dashboards on a large screen allows us to have a clear indication of issues and problems. The frequency of use is daily for us and it's important to have integration with all of our systems
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a steep learning curve, not just the product but all of the different connections that it supports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had no observable dashboards, no single pane of glass as it were. This allow us to have a rolling set of dashboards covering applications and services, allowing proactive monitoring of SLAs as well as KPIs for staff
