"Best pipeline to transfer the data."
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

1. Different format support- Logstash will transfer the different formated and complex data.

2. No data size barrier - Logstash will support the different data sizes without any limitations.

3. Support Customization - Logstash provides different plugins that help create our work pipeline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

1. User interface is a bit complex which covers more information which creates UI bulky.

2. Sometimes, observe the performance issue, and the response time is slow.

3. Configuration is a bit complex and challenging to deploy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A powerful data visualization tool that non-techies can learn"
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

Elastic gives my team (Customer Success) access to parse and analyze data generated from our systems in order to make decisions but also to give our customers deep insights into what is happening in terms of their team's usage on our platform as well as data that is collected through their end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

It's possible for non technical people to learn but it isn't idiot proof. It still feels like a tech product that data analysts or engineers will have an easier time using. 2 people on my team are "good" a handful are adept, and some are still getting the basics down.

"Kibana is a world class tool for reports generation."
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

Kibana is a fantastic tool to create reports not only in the form of sheets or excel but also as pie charts, bar graphs. Kibana helps the process of auditing and reviewing a cakewalk for organizations dealing with large amounts of data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

Kibana is less used and less popular in today's date compared to Tableau. Many multinational companies still stick to tableau because of the lesser popularity of how unique Kibana is and the variety of features it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic tools to visualize our data in elastic search"
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

We used kinana with aws and it is so awesome that we can use many different type of filters, view in table or json as we needed, visualize also in graphs.

We can see all the index and the data inside it.

Ui is very smooth and cool, we can get, put,post query easily from web console.

It is basically a tool to view data inside elastic search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

Couldn't find anything yet to dislike the tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible tool to monitor api"
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

Kibana has many intuitive and easy-to-use tools for non-techies. For example, they have highly configurable dashboards, reports, charts, and seamless integration with Elastic Search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

The version of the search query that they use, Kibana Query Language (KQL), is a bit complicated and has a steep learning curve for people unfamiliar with query languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Built with a DevOps mentality"
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

As a DevOps engineer, I like that Elastic develops different ways to deploy as code. They have a thoroughly documented Ansible Role that can manage all the server requirements, like the partitioning of your disk, Docker installation, and performance tuning, to the stack's configuration of roles. A 5 node cluster takes less than 30 min to deploy in Azure. You can also deploy the Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes with YAML templates.

The free tier is great for POCs, and another significant advantage we get is the ease of scalability by changing a few lines in our playbooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

Not so much a dislike but a challenge: The learning curve of both the product and the automation with ansible require at least 1 week of reading, tutorials and learning the ansible role. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best data virtualization tool"
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

It's one of the best tool to visualise data. It has everything we need to create exiting dashboard. Also, we get the ability to create multiple dashboard for multiple things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Need some more features and integration support for different database ( logs). You can add support for more used databases and create a easy to use guide for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great affordable solution"
What do you like best about Elastic Stack?

Super easy to visualize data and do basic analysis. The price point compared to similar tools is a massive plus. Handles large data well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Stack?

Tableau is definitely the better product, but it's also more expensive. I think Kibana could improve some of its functionality by making pivoting easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
