MT mohnish t. Site Reliability Engineer Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 6/14/2022 "Grafana Experience" 3.5/5 What do you like best about Grafana Labs? The dashboards and their colors with segregations, best for infra monitoring like CPU, memory or disk usage which is related to performance, unlike Prometheus, this is one line ahead it's like the flow is Grafana with the usage of Promotheues works a lot better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Grafana Labs? In Grafana we cant see data clearly even though the graphs or bar charts show those are clear, maybe a proper low light dropdown with clear UI if possible will be clear to understand and sometimes if the dashboard is heavy, it takes a lot of time to load Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Grafana Labs: DEf useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Grafana Labs solving and how is that benefiting you? The systems-level and the server level capacity and performance will be benefited a lot, if there are thousands of servers its hard to track the CPU usage, memory usage or disk space for those, so grafana helps in tarcking all these once configured and we can set up alerts too which will notify us when they reach the threshold.

Even a fast glance into its dashboards lets me estimate our product performance and conduct quick investigations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Grafana Labs? Sometimes advantages become drawbacks. In order to edit some table or graph, I used to ask my colleagues if they could help create the SQL query.
