"InfluxDB perfect for home automation"
5/5
What do you like best about InfluxDB?

InfluxDB is extremely flexible, I can just drop off all the measurements from my smart home into influxDB for storage first, and think about queries later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InfluxDB?

There's nothing to dislike here, except for missing graphical analysis -- but there's Grafana for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice to have an easier pricing model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best solutions I've ever found to dealing with Timeseries coming from IoT devices"
5/5
What do you like best about InfluxDB?

I like performances and query time, as well as the semplicity to being integrated into existing solutions. I purchased it through AWS, via Partner Catalog, and it was so easy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InfluxDB?

Dealing with scheduled operations and indexing is difficult due to the Timeseries definition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best solutions for time series data"
5/5
What do you like best about InfluxDB?

What I like best about InfluxDB is its ability to handle high write and query loads, which makes it well-suited for time series data and real-time analytics. The software also has a built-in query language and a web-based interface that makes it easy to interact with and visualize data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InfluxDB?

One thing I dislike about InfluxDB is that it is not as well-suited for handling large amounts of unstructured data as some other databases I used before. Additionally, some users might find the query language somewhat difficult to learn, not a big minus or something, but still had to point it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Worked well for implementing the monitoring framework"
5/5
What do you like best about InfluxDB?

We developed a centralized monitoring infrastructure to aggregate metrics from different source and influxdb worked well for the data integration from multiple sources for aggregation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InfluxDB?

There were not much direct plugins or integrations and we had to develop most of the out of box solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"InfluxDB - Amazing for Hobbyists and Professional Applications"
5/5
What do you like best about InfluxDB?

The most helpful feature of InfluxDB is the way it seamlessly handles schemaless data ingestion! This allows me to quickly decide to send in new data fields, and not have to worry about database schema design! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InfluxDB?

I don't dislike anything about InfluxDB at this time - I typically will integrate with Grafana for visualizations, as they offer stronger capabilities over what Influx offers in house! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible and responsive time series db"
4/5
What do you like best about InfluxDB?

The flexibility in how you can store and query data. This makes it an easy solution to start playing with and integrating time series data into an application. It is great that it is open source and has cloud hosting options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InfluxDB?

The cloud hosting seems like it could be quite expensive at scale. There is also an odd separation between what is available in the cloud and OSS versions but this is well documented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
