Confluent Pricing Overview

I extremely like the ease with which I can enable Confluent in my company with just a few clicks, making its setup a truly amazing and hassle-free process. It is not necessary to have particular technical skills or advanced infrastructure skills to start using the platform, which makes it accessible to a wide range of users. This ease of use is further amplified by the ability to do data streaming without the need to manage a complex Kafka infrastructure, which is particularly advantageous and represents a huge saving of time and resources. I also appreciate how Confluent offers a scalable and reliable solution for data streaming in my company, which allows me to integrate it smoothly with other platforms within my IT ecosystem, improving the overall efficiency of operations. Finally, I am satisfied with the ability to have my environment configured and ready for initial tests extremely quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really liked how Confluent simplified working with Kafka and Flink through managed cloud services like Azure. The simple UI and wide range of connectors make real-time data integration effortless to me. Another highlight is the scalability and reliability while working on massive data streams. The schema registry and also KSQLDB make stream processing and governance much better and fluent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing will shoot up as your data volume grows up. Some features are only available in Enterprise edition. Also one must spend lot of time to understand the whole workflow. Quite a bit steep learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
