What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

Being an inverted index, ElasticSearch returns an incredible amount of results in extremely short times.

Such short times enable the application to run smoothly, making the customers happier with the product.

Moreover, it opens the application to new possibilities like simple full-text and geo-based searches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

ElasticSearch tends to guess. Anytime I put inside an index new data without prior defining the mapping, it just guesses and forces me to do a lot of work to change the mapping.

Being able to prevent data insertion without mapping might be useful in some scenarios.

Similarly, coming from a SQL world, I find it hard sometimes to work without GROUP BY and JOIN (i.e., fetch data from multiple indices with different mappings in a single query). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Elastic Stack:

The rule should always be: use the best tool for your needs.

ElasticSearch is surely an impressively fast tool.

If you need full-text searches, you probably want to deploy it.

The flip of the coin is that a given range of operations that are trivial in SQL, are not in ElasticSearch.

Performing some kind of data sorting or mathematical evaluations might require Painless Scripting (a Java dialect). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Elastic Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use ElasticSearch as a reading node build on top of a complex (and possibly slow) infrastructure including SQL, blob storage, and various web services such as OCR.

All this kind of heterogeneous data is then merged together inside specific ElasticSearch indices.

With ElasticSearch all this data is constantly available in a short time. On top of that, it enables full-text search which is getting more and more required for the most various tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

1. Different format support- Logstash will transfer the different formated and complex data.

2. No data size barrier - Logstash will support the different data sizes without any limitations.

3. Support Customization - Logstash provides different plugins that help create our work pipeline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

1. User interface is a bit complex which covers more information which creates UI bulky.

2. Sometimes, observe the performance issue, and the response time is slow.

3. Configuration is a bit complex and challenging to deploy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Elastic Stack:

If you are looking for a better data flow mechanism, form the different sources and make the process centralize, this is one of the best selections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Elastic Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

To achieve - Collect the different size formatted data from various sources and make it a more centralized process for the data flow; this logstash solution helps a lot and also get better benefits to create the customized pipeline for data flow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

Elastic gives my team (Customer Success) access to parse and analyze data generated from our systems in order to make decisions but also to give our customers deep insights into what is happening in terms of their team's usage on our platform as well as data that is collected through their end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

It's possible for non technical people to learn but it isn't idiot proof. It still feels like a tech product that data analysts or engineers will have an easier time using. 2 people on my team are "good" a handful are adept, and some are still getting the basics down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Elastic Stack:

It's a pretty powerful front end. If you use elastic already this can offload data work to other teams. As well, it's an easy way to share data access to your customers if requested. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Elastic Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

We collect a TON of data but it wasn't traditionally available without engineers pulling it out of the system manually. With Kibana on top of elastic we built standardized reports and can do a la cart data analysis without needing our eng team. As well we have created shared instances which we can grant our customers access to so they can build API access to their data for dashboards, analysis, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

Kibana is a fantastic tool to create reports not only in the form of sheets or excel but also as pie charts, bar graphs. Kibana helps the process of auditing and reviewing a cakewalk for organizations dealing with large amounts of data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

Kibana is less used and less popular in today's date compared to Tableau. Many multinational companies still stick to tableau because of the lesser popularity of how unique Kibana is and the variety of features it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Elastic Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Many companies are switching from the legacy way of reviewing data and accounts with the help of sheets. Kibana is one such tool that allows you to decide on a graphical format for viewing the data. It depends on one index to fetch large amounts of logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
