"Great tool for Managing distribution of Hadoop"
What do you like best about Apache Ambari?

Ambari is an open-source tool of Apache foundation which makes life easy for the Administrator to install, Provision, and Manage a Hadoop cluster. If you want to avoid scripting for installation then its a must go to tool for Hadoop installation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache Ambari?

The Amari has limited features. It is so much it could be done with an Ambari since its an open-source. I would say not a great tool for monitoring and doesn't have many rich features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Would recommend if you are towards BigData"
What do you like best about Apache Ambari?

I am using it as GUI for Hadoop file system on my server and it has made my life really easy. I can use this instead of Unix, to navigate through the different Hadoop folders across different environments, and it provides enhanced view of list of files. It also allows me upload files to the Hadoop locations without any hassle. This way I can easily delete, download, modify, upload files to hadoop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for overall management of cluster"

A single place to veiw all your services installed and managed. You can Crete your own tiles in the dashboard to see the memory usage clusters instead of going inside individual services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

An sso for the services could be much better instead of different access for other services for yarn like other services. Also the size of the tile needs to be increased for better visibility Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
