Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The integration between Loki and Tempo is valuable."
"Visualisation: It is easy to create beautiful, understanding graphs, snapshots to share the graphs with people who do not have access to Grafana, and templating to create powerful graphs."
"The dashboards are very easy to work with."
"The initial setup is straightforward with just a few clicks on the solution's cloud."
"It gives us the visibility we need. I like that when we add deployment markers or release markers, we know exactly when an issue arises. For instance, if there is an increased usage of CPU, we can link it directly to the deployment that might have caused the issue. It increases productivity and observability. We can now easily tell when a certain issue arises. It's way easier to debug because it can point you to certain things based on these markers, and we can debug easier."
"Grafana's built-in integration with third-party tools, databases, and MQs is an amazing feature."
"The solution has good features."
"Compatibility with Prometheus databases and the Spring Boot application make it the first choice when moving toward an SRE model."
"InfoVista 5View NetFlow allows us to control the application layer and manage API connections, i.e. Facebook logins or whatever other third-party API services we require."
"The solution has room for improvement with a better API to help automate the construction of the dashboards easier."
"Writing queries can be a bit difficult because the syntax must be maintained."
"The formatting could be better."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"There are not a lot of plugins for financial market monitoring."
"Lacks in-depth graphs and sufficient AI."
"The documentation or training provided by Grafana is limited compared to its competitors, like Splunk."
"Lacks event management which affects our DevOps people."
"A little bit better documentation on the details is needed because this subject is not easy sometimes to understand, which limits the capability of the software."
