Elastic Stack Reviews & Product Details

Kibana is an open source data visualization plugin for Elasticsearch. It provides us with a way to easily create and share beautiful dashboards filled with dynamic charts, graphs, and maps. It makes it easy to find insights in your data, and since it's fully integrated with Elasticsearch, you can use it to search, analyze, and visualize your data all in one .It's a definite recommendation for data analysis because it's so user-friendly and versatile.

Major complaint is that it can be slow to load data sets, particularly those that are large. Additionally, I find the built-in visualizations confusing and difficult to use. It also does not currently have a way to export charts and graphs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since I started using the Elastic Stack, I found it incredibly helpful. It makes it very easy to find the specific logs you want to see, thanks to its simple UI. Once you understand its features, it becomes effortless to use in your daily work. What amazes me the most is how fast it performs, especially as a programmer myself. I use it daily because, with Elastic, finding anything in production is quick and straightforward, and it's also very easy to integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing which I dislike about the elastic stag was if we have some such criteria and behalf of that we have some result so if we want the particular thread which are come across or which are nearby to the thread which was in result is not easily accessible also the server are many as I already mention altho is someone there to guide you it is very easy to understand and start working on elastic stack the difficulty I have face while using elastic stack it was in starting when I started using elastic stack there was many servers and I am not aware which want to use for the production and which one to use for test environment if some one read the documentation i think it will be very easy to understand in starting it self Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some enterprise features are hard to configure in the managed hosting version, e.g. setting up SAML requires me to upload a custom plugin bundle while it should be configurable out of the box with it's UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Elastic stack gives us the ability to aggregate logs from all our systems and applications, analyze these logs, and create visualizations for application and infrastructure monitoring, faster troubleshooting, security analytics, and more.It is very easy to use and implement and it easily gets integrated with various other tools in Cyberspace.

The logs can be used to generate graphs and representations on the dashboards which can be used by various teams as a central point of reference to drive the governance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Elastic Stack software is free to use, but building, growing, and maintaining the Elastic Stack requires infrastructure and resources. Whether you deploy on-premises or in the cloud, your costs for computing and data storage will depend on:

The total log volume you aggregate daily from all applications, systems, and networks.

How long you will retain data for either indexing or archiving.

Also, there is some latency to populate the graphs at times and this needs to be fixed to have a good end user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the standout features of Elastic Stack that I particularly appreciate is its ability to seamlessly handle data at scale while offering a wide range of powerful functions.

First and foremost, Elastic Stack's search and analytics capabilities are exceptional. With Elasticsearch as the core component, it provides lightning-fast search results and performs complex analytics on large volumes of data with impressive efficiency. Whether it's searching through vast amounts of textual information, aggregating and visualizing data, or performing advanced analytics, Elastic Stack's search functionality is highly robust and flexible.

While Elastic Stack offers numerous powerful features, there are a few areas where it may have some limitations or drawbacks.

One aspect that can be challenging is the complexity of configuration and management. Elastic Stack consists of multiple components, each with its own configuration settings and dependencies. Configuring and fine-tuning the stack to suit specific requirements can be time-consuming, especially for users who are new to the system. Additionally, managing a distributed deployment with multiple nodes can be complex, requiring careful planning and expertise to ensure optimal performance and reliability.

The Elastic Stack provides integration options with various data sources, platforms, and systems. It supports data ingestion from diverse sources such as databases, file systems, messaging systems, and cloud platforms. It also offers integration with other tools and frameworks, making it easier to incorporate the Elastic Stack into existing workflows and environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the Elastic Stack provides features for securing data and controlling access, ensuring robust security and access control requires careful configuration and implementation. Organizations need to invest time and effort into setting up appropriate security measures, such as authentication, authorization, encryption, and firewall configurations, to protect sensitive data.

What I like best about Kibana is how fast it is in fetching and visualizing data.

Also, it eases of conversion of visualization and dashboard into reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plugins addition does not always work right. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

best search engine which can give the response in the minimum time.

Integration with kibana and logstash is great providing the max flexibility.Also it can hold lot of data in a compressed form Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UI is bit old

There are no ai support in the elastic stack including logstash and kibana.

They need to work on the UI to get to the stage where its usage expands Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
