Absolutely to be considered as "one for all" monitoring solution

  • October 15, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Love the easy deployment wich covers out-of-box a lot of monitoring features.
As a homeLab runner and at work need to sometimes PoC fast some products the easy install and free tier gives very fast basic overview of the workability, integrations and feel about the UI.
In-cluster data also gives some certainty to some companies when thinking about storaged data.
Basic installation looked like to give mayby most needed features when doing monitoring,, loging and tracing metrics.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my short and fast homlab PoC/preview couldn't get to cover deeper aspects of integrations, so nothing to dislike yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my homaLab setups i want to keep data near me, event thou the data is not that flammable.
Gives good one for all solution for my home infra and apps.

The user interface is intuitive, making it easy to navigate through different sections and effectively monitor services. We're using Groundcover for almost everything related to monitoring, and it has become our primary go-to tool. It has greatly satisfied our teams. Additionally, the pricing is affordable, offering excellent value for the features provided

The Grafana dashboard section doesn't generate a shareable link, as the address bar doesn't update when navigating within the dashboards. Additionally, reloading the page always redirects to Grafana's default page.

Groundcover solves several key observability challenges for us. It simplifies the monitoring of our microservices by providing real-time insights, clear metrics, and intuitive dashboards. This has greatly reduced the time we spend troubleshooting issues and identifying bottlenecks.

What do you like best about the product?
As a startup with a limited budget, finding the right observability platform was a major challenge. We needed a solution that provided comprehensive monitoring, logging, tracing, and alerting capabilities without breaking the bank. After evaluating several open source and paid tools, we discovered Groundcover, and it has been a game changer for us.

It's easy to set up and use and it has excelnt support.
What do you dislike about the product?
We encountered a few minor glitches and gaps in the documentation, but Groundcover support team has been helpful in addressing any questions or issues we've had.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Groundcover is solving the problem of achieving comprehensive observability for our mission critical applications running on Kubernetes, without the complexity and cost traditionally associated with such tools.

Very simple installation and all data is stored locally in the company's infrastructure.

  • January 15, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
All data is stored locally, with very simple plans so it is very easy to calculate costs. You have full control over all retention without incurring extra costs as it is running on your infrastructure. Also, the Groundcover team is very quick to help and even provides suggestions/best practices and status updates on how to fetch data from the internal Clickhouse database that is deployed as part of the service. This also includes information related to upcoming internal changes that might affect your custom-developed services that use groundcover data, that is going above and beyond!

It is very easy to install using in our case, their helm charts. And their UI is very simple and intuitive when it comes to reading logs, traces and metrics.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their built-in eBPF plugins are still limited, but that is a very small downside as they support oTEL and Prometheus out of the box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Observability for our microservices and our Kubernetes infrastructure.
