"Work experience with confluent platform"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Confluent?

The best things of the confluent platform to use Apache Kafka is connectors. They provide a lot of connectors which we can use in our project without writing any single lines of code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Confluent?

Documentation is not up to date and some times missed lot of concepts about connectors. I faced a lot of issues because no proper documentation and always has to ask in stack overflow or some other way to get rid of those missed concepts. But except of these things, confluent platform is awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
