"It integrates well with other solutions."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the UI dashboard because we need to create a dashboard on Grafana to monitor our data."
"Plugin: Connecting Grafana to multiple APIs of leading monitoring tools and alerting tools."
"The solution has good features."
"The dashboards are very easy to work with."
"The comparison feature is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Grafana is the ease to build dashboards from observability construction. Additionally, the page services and integration are good."
"The interface and user experience could be better."
"AppD is really cool and a unified solution for both APM and APM centric Analytics side. We can show almost all business data within the APM context from the end-user perspetive. But this process is a little bit manual. If they catch and map business journeys based on customer interaction on the browser automatically, it should be really fine."

"If you have a single URL and all the operations are coming in as part of the header, you will not be able to segregate them for different actions."
"The pricing falls within the mid-range category."
"I find issues with Grafana. For example, I am unable to open some services there. Then, we have to open ten different tabs to get it fixed. And it's annoying when there's something going on; we want to check Grafana, and it throws four different errors."
"One area for improvement in Grafana is that depending on your version, you have to pay for the features, making the license expensive. It would be great if the licensing model could be more flexible. In the next release of Grafana, I want cluster creation to be available, which would help in Grafana deployment and scaling. Currently, the scaling process for the solution is a bit complicated."
"Grafana doesn't provide anything for reporting."
"It would be helpful if they simplified the data source."
"It can take a considerable amount of time to learn the graphs if a long duration is selected."
"There are not a lot of plugins for financial market monitoring."
"It is limited on the reporting type supported, which is important for managerial-level officers who want reports that are either general or specific."
"I have a problem with Grafana in the area of documentation."
