kPow is the missing link in our operations toolkit for supporting a Kafka powered system.
What do you like best about the product?
Realtime data view & query language.
Topic & broker config inspect.
Consumer group monitoring including offset lag. (can also export their metrics via prometheus!)
The development team are active in the Kafka community and are extremely responsive to feedback on how kPow could be improved. We have benefited from several usbility enhancements & features that were initated on the back of our feedback.

What do you dislike about the product?
A few minor stability issues (now resolved)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
kPow provides much-needed transparency across our Kafka event streams. I run a large production system comprised of 50+ micro services all of which have a dependency on Kafka. Events are used as triggers between services and to drive state sharing. Being able to search across and inspect the contents of our event streams has proved invaluable from a production support, debugging & verification perspective. Without kPow our operational abilities would be significantly compromised.
