The solution's integration and configuration are not easy. Not many people know exactly what to do.  

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with the product for five years. 

How was the initial setup?

The product's deployment took a couple of days to complete.

The product's deployment was done in-house by myself.

An open-source product that helped us to monitor website request and responses

  • May 31, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution to monitor our website and APIs request and response cycle, also for log aggregation. We also used it for APM and searching for slow and database queries. 

How has it helped my organization?

It helped a lot in identifying bottlenecks and events happening simultaneously among several services, since we can aggregate the logs into a single repository of data

What is most valuable?

I am impressed with the product's Logstash. The tool is fast and customizable. You can build beautiful dashboards Kibana using Logstash as data source. It is useful and reliable. 

What needs improvement?

It was not possible to use authentication three years back. You needed to buy the product's services for authentication. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with the product for three years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The tool itself is stable but depends on your infrastructure. If you have slow disks, the searches tend to take more time. If you need more data retention, be sure to keep an eye on disk space. Otherwise, the service crashes easily.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool's scalability is tied to your infrastructure. You need to have the money and resources to scale your infrastructure. To scale up, you need faster disks and more servers.  My company had 15 users using the product for a small API, and the cost was not so high.

How are customer service and support?

The product's tech support is very helpful and skilled.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The product's setup is difficult, since you need at least 5 servers in a distributed topology to achieve its full potential: 3 machines for elasticsearch, 1 for logstash and another for kibana

What about the implementation team?

In house

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

"The tool is an open-source product, but you have to self-host it and you need specialized personnel to maintain it.

What other advice do I have?

If you are self hosting the solution, you need to take care of indexes and understand cluster sharding and distributed systems' election system

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

Mistake CF Template

  • May 22, 2023
  • Review from a verified AWS customer

As writing in other review, this product do not work properly.

First: you are forced to create an account (thanks, now I've 3 Elastic Cloud account, and you can't delete it)

Second: CloudFormation Launch Template do not work properly (multiple reason)

I spent 1 hour to try debugging yaml Launch Template (first time for me) and I waste my time.

As a result, I will buy a EC2 instance and run myself ES on docker...

Waste of time & money - don't try this. Read other comments & find another way to run ES

PS: 1 star because I couldn't put 0 star

My Enterprise elastic search review

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Elastic Enterprise Search is a versatile full text search engine supporting multiple full text search options and good spring boot repository supports for easy integration with java spring applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Elastic Enterprise Search is a daemon. It has a very steep learning curve with a lot of new concepts and architecture. Novice needs a good amount of time to learn this.

In our organization, we use AWS Managed Service OpenSearch backed with Elastic Search engine to do a full text search on documents to connect different systems to benefit from the elastic search full text search capability.

It's extremely simple to carry out, excelent software

  • March 23, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Their help is amicable and accommodating. Whenever I had an inquiry or couldn't figure something old, they rushed to take care of me.

It's not difficult to arrange. The online UI makes it very easy to arrange
What do you dislike about the product?
It can require a significant stretch of time to file a huge site with countless pages.
It is basically impossible to mass erase pages from the record through the web administrator UI.
There is definitely not a decent module for utilizing Swiftype with Drupal 8 Pursuit Programming interface.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our city site expected to relocate off of unsupported Google search answers for a more present day and strong pursuit arrangement. We wanted a webpage search arrangement that could record our site and convey quick, pertinent list items to our clients.

A Great for Auditing Logs

  • March 16, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to view logs while troubleshooting issues in production is its one of the great feature. ELK makes it very easy to find and filter out specific answers and focus on specific logs. In addition, indexing helps you properly catalog your items and identify hot and cold stocks. Kibana is also useful for creating dashboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is a little bit confusing. Onboarding can take time for new users to get used to using the platform. Also, it is costly to have an ELK cluster, even for small needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has brought together all the important information about the end users of the product and created dashboards for analytics to help improve the user experience. Key insights into production, supply chain management, and sales are also beneficial.

What do you like best about the product?
Elastic enterprise search i like the personalised search for website and app. Which is very precised and apadative for searching logger and all. It helps logging part easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documention part is bit confusing that how to integarte with our app. Its bit confusing and time taking to learn. Other than that UI search is good and can be better in terms of lagging.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Basically it solved the logging part with us as we are using ec2 logging which helps to keep track of tasks which are deployed on our server print statements are removed .
