Simplified Kafka integrations
Reviewed on Jul 15, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The interface provides a simple way to choose the particular features you require, depending on the level of budget you have, allowing you to achieve your goals. It is easy to implement, and the Customer Support and demonstrations, as shown by the videos on the landing page, make it easier to integrate. As for the frequency of use of the events being streamed, if the data objects are of a similar format, it makes it easy to replicate the schemas in other applications where necessary.
What do you dislike about the product?
This process can be well appreciated if someone has prior technical knowledge of Kafka Streams and frequently uses data streams. Hence, it is quite important that someone grasps the use of Kafka Streams even while integrating onto the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven solves the problem of someone having to create a Kafka application from the ground up, define brokers and Kafka topics on their own, test the service, and then having to deploy the same for each and every other application when needed. It assists in saving time and gets the application running quickly, leaving one to focus on other development tasks that are a priority.

Seamlessly handle database upgrades and minimize downtime disruptions
Reviewed on Mar 16, 2025
Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
Our primary use case is having our PostgreSQL and MySQL databases hosted by Aiven Platform . They serve as our production databases.
What is most valuable?
One of the most valuable features of Aiven Platform is that it handles the upgrades for us seamlessly, saving us time that would be spent on routine upgrades. It also provides reliable backups. The ability to minimize disruption during upgrades is very important since any database downtime would mean system-wide disruptions.
What needs improvement?
I would really like to see Aiven Platform add a user interface for database backups, as this would eliminate the need for a third-party solution. Additionally, the customer service could be more responsive to regain my trust as it felt inefficient in the past.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Aiven Platform for eight years.
How are customer service and support?
Customer service usually responds promptly, but there have been times when communication felt like throwing an inquiry over a wall and waiting for a reply. It detracted from getting a quick understanding and solution for challenges.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We used Engine Yard's support for databases before switching to Aiven Platform. Every upgrade was a hassle and nerve-wracking. We by usign Aiven we needed fewer servers because of we did need serves to hodt the PG and MySql databases.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The cost for hosting with Aiven Platform seems high compared to managing it ourselves.
What other advice do I have?
In our experience, we encountered issues with Aiven Platform's connection to Redis . It was not smooth, and though we like the solution overall, we are hesitant about using Redis integration again. Additionally, on a scale of one to ten, I would rate Aiven Platform a nine due to the alck of an interface for backups and a more responsive customer service.
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
