"The best thing about Grafana is the visualization. The colors and the ease of use make it very user-friendly."
"Visualisation: It is easy to create beautiful, understanding graphs, snapshots to share the graphs with people who do not have access to Grafana, and templating to create powerful graphs."
"Grafana's built-in integration with third-party tools, databases, and MQs is an amazing feature."
"There are multiple kinds of models there to create dashboards, which is quite useful."
"Compatibility with Prometheus databases and the Spring Boot application make it the first choice when moving toward an SRE model."
"It integrates well with other solutions."
"We like the alert features."
"InfoVista 5View NetFlow allows us to control the application layer and manage API connections, i.e. Facebook logins or whatever other third-party API services we require."
"One area for improvement in Grafana is that depending on your version, you have to pay for the features, making the license expensive. It would be great if the licensing model could be more flexible. In the next release of Grafana, I want cluster creation to be available, which would help in Grafana deployment and scaling. Currently, the scaling process for the solution is a bit complicated."
"They should improve the functioning of its editing tool."
"The product's configuration for saving files could be improved."
"It's difficult to see the trends on the graph when the range is too long."
"More dashboard is required, out-of-the-box, for OpenNMS."
"I had issues with the solution's configuration part."
"Its UI features to create charts can also be improved. Some features could have a link to the documentation."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"A little bit better documentation on the details is needed because this subject is not easy sometimes to understand, which limits the capability of the software."
