"Essential tool for Internet Services Product and Network Management"
What do you like best about Kentik?

Kentik is easy to use, and provides great insight into how customers, potential customers, and competitors are interacting with your network. The ability to quickly generate and customize reports across a variety of datapoints and presentations enables quick development of regular reporting dashboards, as well as quick on-the-fly studies.

I usually am on there several times a day, just doing pulse checks on traffic flow, or generating updates to particular traffic reports that are tracked on-going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kentik?

The only real downside, is the limitation that everything has to involve your own network - though this is totally understandable. As great as it would be to see interactions between competitors and potential customers, wouldn't want to share that information about your own network. Can't really think of anything else, overall it's an extremely useful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Kentik is the best platform for network management and observation"
What do you like best about Kentik?

I like practically everything about Kentik, it's hard to choose just one feature to talk about.

But what draws the most attention is the speed of querying and reading the collected data.

The tool is very fast. I am impressed with the amount of query I do in a gigantic network (more than 1.6T of external links only) and the result is very fast. I've used several other tools and none perform as well as kentik

This greatly facilitates troubleshooting and traffic monitoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kentik?

A point that I think is bad is not the tool itself, but more commercial / marketing.

Improve publicity in Latin America. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Kentik is a must have to be proactive in your network envionment"
What do you like best about Kentik?

Kentik query and live search is extremely fast, and it's capable on sending APIs/notifications out instantaneously.

Ever since implementing Kentik netflow, we have never had to manually move traffic to our scrubbing centers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Best Network Observability Tool"
What do you like best about Kentik?

Kentik is a complete solution for all businesses that deliver digital information. It covers all segments, either if it is on-premises or cloud. It is a straightforward and fast of implementation cycle (so you can be confident that everything will be operational quickly).

It can replace different platforms in a single solution that touches other areas of the company (operations, delivery, engineering and administration) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kentik?

There is not many Cons to say. I would consider ways to store some data from strategic providers locally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Kentik review JRG"
What do you like best about Kentik?

I use Kentik every day to support my customers and to also deliver the best service possible. Kentik is an essential tool for network security and traffic flow and analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kentik?

There can be a learning curve in understanding the nesting of filters when trying to create a filter to address a detailed customer traffic flow. The filters are very powerful and helpful in detailed traffic analysis and are critical elements when analyzing high-volume flows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Extraordinarily useful and massive amounts of insight."
What do you like best about Kentik?

The variety of different tests that have thus proved priceless. It has been able to help us identify issues before customers realize there are issues, and in many cases we have been able to remedy them before even getting the first call. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kentik?

There have been a couple of bugs in alerting on some tests, but the engineering team has been great at identifying and remediating the problems very quickly.... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
