Good solution for Streamlined Data Processing
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Aiven for Apache Kafka is its remarkable ease of use and efficient management interface. Setting up and configuring Kafka clusters is a breeze, and the platform's user-friendly design simplifies complex processes, allowing me to focus on data processing rather than grappling with technical complexities.
What do you dislike about the product?
One aspect that I find somewhat challenging with Aiven for Apache Kafka is the pricing structure. While the service does offer great value, it could benefit from more transparent pricing tiers and clearer guidelines on how costs can scale as data demands increase. This would help users like me better anticipate and manage expenses as our data processing requirements grow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scalability features enable seamless handling of increased data volumes. As my data processing needs grow, I can easily scale my Kafka clusters without the hassle of managing intricate scaling processes. This scalability ensures that my applications can handle spikes in demand and accommodate future growth.
A good experience overall
What do you like best about the product?
Cool and clean interface that allows me to navigate quickly whenever I need to find some information.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would appreciate some way to search for messages from within the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
From my perspective I just need to connect to Kafka and start consuming/processing messages right away
Effortless Setup
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of administration and downtime recovery makes Apache Kafka on Aiven one of the best places to look to for standing up Kafka.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far everything has been working well, and have not found anything I dislike about Aiven for Apache Kafka
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently it is helping us process real-time analytics on some of primary business cases.
Developer Back End
What do you like best about the product?
The easy graphical interface making Apache Kafka easy to use and manage!
What do you dislike about the product?
The update management.. We had an issue with an automatic update breaking our consumer. This was due to the admin being in out of office.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing our client and us exchnaging data in an efficient way.
Aiven for business application

I dont like that the UI is not able to read comrpessed data, the manual message posting is not so good
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Review after a quick eval
What do you like best about the product?
$0 starting costs for evaluating with a usable abount of storage, whilst not appropriate for us at the moment, this is a real plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
Docs are insufficiently clear about the differnce between AWS RDS sql and using Aiven, takes some reading to work it out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not currently using as we have existing solutions in place, but we will be looking into use later for future work.
Everything has been good so far
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to setup, reliable. I enjoy the debugging features on to console, such as viewing message queues, so I don't have to set up my codebase to check everything is working ok. In fact I think I would enjoy any additional features added to the console for making setting up, debugging, viewing messages etc. easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are a mid-stage start-up and still having trouble utilizing all of the free tier capacity. To be honest as a poor start-up (especially if we had started using aiven earlier) we would prefer to have a less reliable cheaper instance at first that we can scale up later once we need proper reliability.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can stream messages from our IoT devices to a single endpoint and process them in an orderly manner in vertically scaled instances.
We have a fairly simple tech stack and Kafka is the correct tool for the task.

Aiven review after almost 4 years of experience
What do you like best about the product?
I very much like the UI, which is user friendly and easy to access and manage Apache Kafka cluster. Personally I also like the terminal tool (avn) , which makes it more smooth to execute different commands.
What do you dislike about the product?
My first experience which I like to mention here is the Apache Kafka cluster logs. This is a bit cumbersome to use and scroll in the UI and find a specific date and time details.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Event streaming in our designed event driven architecture, which can be considered a key component in our infrastructure.
Software engineer
What do you like best about the product?
I work with the aiven dashboard a lot to check the running status of our platform. I do like the UI a lot, very intuitive and easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have a lot of topics, everytime there's something wrong and I feel its related to a topic been blocked for some reason. Its not easy to find that topic in Avien. Because it loads lags only if I click into the topic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven hosts the kafka for us. So we don't need to spend time building and maintaining our own Kafka service.
