Seamless Integration and Unparalleled Availability
What do you like best about the product?
One of the standout features of Aiven is its remarkable ease of integration. The intuitive user interface makes it a breeze to set up and manage these integrations.
Availability is another area where Aiven shines brightly. The robust infrastructure and built-in redundancy mechanisms provide peace of mind, knowing that my data is secure and my applications are always up and running.

Highly Recommend Aiven
What do you like best about the product?
Before signing upto Aiven, i had a video chat with 2 of the Aiven team who went through how to setup an account through to creating a new postgresql database and where to find the settings, logging etc. Since the video chat, i have now signed up Aiven and created a new database very quickly and was up and running firing a migration to a test database within a few minutes.
When platforms generally say something is easy, take a few minutes i am scepticle, but Aiven was true to their word, it was very easy to setup.

What do you dislike about the product?
Have not found anything not to like with Aiven as yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We currently have an On-Premise database server which feeds an internal billing system and customer facing website. So moving the database to Aiven removes the database server. We also needed a service that was managed to eliminate the need and worry about patching and maintenance and having an Australian Region here in Sydney was a bonus aswell as local support by people nit bots.

Great Platform for Super Fast Setup, Prototype, and Proving out MVP, Use Cases
What do you like best about the product?
Aiven is a fantastic platform for getting up and running as quickly as possible. The cost is very competitive and flexible. The number of database options covers nearly all of our development and POC use cases. It is very easy to provision and to tear down and integrating with our existing development tooling is very simple, and we do not have to worry about usage, egress overages while prototyping and rapidly proving out MVP value.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some parts are not as customizable and easy to use as I would like, such as managing static IP addresses, customizing environment variables or config settings, and some features that are available in the tool do not seem to be available in Aiven, for example, with Clickhouse, not all of the secondary storage and remote table engines were compatible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven is giving us a very fast and simple way to provision development databases that are fully compatible with our existing tooling and production environments. In addition to OpenSearch and PSQL, we have also tried Aiven Grafana and Aiven for ClickHouse.
Best hosted PostgreSQL solution
What do you like best about the product?
It's performant, easy to deploy, very easy to scale both up and down.
What do you dislike about the product?
Regarding psql? Nothing really. It works just great. Maybe they are little bit on expensive side? But you're get what you're paying for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using it as main relational data storage.
Aiven for Apache Kafka Provides an Easy Way for Managing Kafka Cluster
What do you like best about the product?
Aiven for Apache Kafka provides great UI for managing Kafka, from managing Kafka clusters, topics, consumer groups, and many configurations. It also supports multiple authentication, not only providing security but also a convenient way to interact with Kafka.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their UI could be slow, especially when you have many things to manage. It's a trade-off for the great UI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing the Kafka cluster is hard, and Aiven for Apache Kafka makes it easier for developers to manage it.
