There can be a learning curve in understanding the nesting of filters when trying to create a filter to address a detailed customer traffic flow.

Kentik is easy to use, and provides great insight into how customers, potential customers, and competitors are interacting with your network. The ability to quickly generate and customize reports across a variety of datapoints and presentations enables quick development of regular reporting dashboards, as well as quick on-the-fly studies.
I usually am on there several times a day, just doing pulse checks on traffic flow, or generating updates to particular traffic reports that are tracked on-going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only real downside, is the limitation that everything has to involve your own network - though this is totally understandable. As great as it would be to see interactions between competitors and potential customers, wouldn't want to share that information about your own network. Can't really think of anything else, overall it's an extremely useful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like practically everything about Kentik, it's hard to choose just one feature to talk about.
But what draws the most attention is the speed of querying and reading the collected data.
The tool is very fast. I am impressed with the amount of query I do in a gigantic network (more than 1.6T of external links only) and the result is very fast. I've used several other tools and none perform as well as kentik
This greatly facilitates troubleshooting and traffic monitoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A point that I think is bad is not the tool itself, but more commercial / marketing.

Ever since implementing Kentik netflow, we have never had to manually move traffic to our scrubbing centers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There's nothing that we dislike of Kentik. The team is fantastic, and if we have something that does not align with our environment, they always add a feature that gives us those options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Kentik is a complete solution for all businesses that deliver digital information. It covers all segments, either if it is on-premises or cloud. It is a straightforward and fast of implementation cycle (so you can be confident that everything will be operational quickly).
It can replace different platforms in a single solution that touches other areas of the company (operations, delivery, engineering and administration) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is not many Cons to say. I would consider ways to store some data from strategic providers locally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The variety of different tests that have thus proved priceless. It has been able to help us identify issues before customers realize there are issues, and in many cases we have been able to remedy them before even getting the first call. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There have been a couple of bugs in alerting on some tests, but the engineering team has been great at identifying and remediating the problems very quickly.... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At OSNET we like to use Kentik because of the ease of the interface to represent data and make it useful when making decisions and evaluating problems in our network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would say that something that is perhaps not so intuitive is the creation of dashboards, I think that it is an area that can be improved to make the function a little more useful and dynamic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
