Centralized console has streamlined multi‑cloud management and supports automated operations
Apart from the centralized management console, Aviatrix gives the additional advantage or simplifies the way we manage the cloud environments. When it comes to troubleshooting or more networking-related issues, the native cloud solution has limited options available within the cloud environment. Aviatrix provides those additional benefits to manage effectively when managing troubleshooting or issues. Aviatrix is making our day-to-day job easier and also saving a lot of time because it gives options for cloud-to-cloud peering, as well as a transit hub and spoke architecture. It simplifies how we manage the multi-cloud environment through the single console, and the connectivity options become very easier. Aviatrix supports the automation platform. It supports Infrastructure as Code (IAC), which makes deployment faster with automation. This reduces operational overhead. Aviatrix has positively impacted my organization by making management and administration easier, allowing us to manage all the cloud infrastructure from a single console. There is less overhead on operations due to automation support, and cloud network segmentation has become more advanced.

Developers have benefited from flexibility and performance but pricing has needed further attention
I am only familiar with databases and applications. I am from the development team and I am a user of database and cloud but I don't know the infrastructure. As a user, I deal with the Oracle Database. I know the organization has a license with the product. We don't utilize real-time analytics with MongoDB Atlas. I don't use MongoDB Atlas directly, so I don't know how it can be improved. I would place MongoDB Atlas at a medium level. I would rate it at a six or seven. I believe MongoDB Atlas can improve a little. My overall review rating for this product is six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Its exceptional capability to seamlessly integrate with various cloud services makes it the preferred choice for multi-cloud deployments."
"This tool resolves the overlapping of CIDR’s IP addresses in a multi-cloud environment, which is its best feature. The product also gives packet-level details on the data that has been put from one cloud to another. Currently, no other solution in the market can give this kind of detail. There is also the high VPN connectivity which gives high throughput. Internet service providers have a limitation on large migrations like 10 Gigabytes or 2 to 2.3 GBPS. However, this tool gives you a functionality where you can bundle multiple tunnels into one tunnel. Thereafter, you can transfer the data from one environment to another or from on-prem to the cloud."
"Aviatrix has positively impacted my organization by making management and administration easier, allowing us to manage all the cloud infrastructure from a single console."
"It has enhanced the way I can deploy and manage VPCs and other connectivity services, provided valuable insights into latency, ports used, and top talkers, and offered effective troubleshooting tools."
"It has enhanced the way I can deploy and manage VPCs and other connectivity services, provided valuable insights into latency, ports used, and top talkers, and offered effective troubleshooting tools."
"The connections are seamless, and we can access the static clouds on the platform itself. We are also able to trace the issues. The most valuable features of the solution are security, user interface, and performance."
"Within the Aviatrix ecosystem, you could connect different clouds, and the intricacies of low-level commands and configurations were abstracted away."
"The most valuable feature of Aviatrix is that it saves us a lot of time."
"The price of MongoDB Atlas is reasonable, which is why many organizations, including mine, are opting for it."
"The solution is easy to use, the console is user-friendly, and overall a well-designed solution. It takes a complex system and makes it easy to understand. Additionally, the solution is always advancing and they provide a roadmap into what is coming in the future."
"The initial setup is very simple and straightforward; it's not overly complex or difficult, and with AWS, implementation is not an issue anymore, so from the user's perspective you just create the database and it's as easy as that."
"The dynamic structures are the most valuable."
"The product is user-friendly."
"MongoDB is a NoSQL tool."
"It has a flexible integration with our easy API."
"Being schemaless is what I like best about MongoDB Atlas."
 

Cons

"Aviatrix should include more integrated security features like intrusion detection and lateral movement detection."
"The tool has a very limited local presence in the GCC market. I am based in Dubai, UAE and it would be very difficult for me to reach out to US staff for technical discussion during the tool’s implementation. The tool needs to focus on the GCC market which includes UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, etc. There is nobody to help you out in this region."
"There could be an easy availability of multiple features in the profile."
"I find that the pricing, setup costs, and licensing for Aviatrix are on the higher side."
"There can be a steep learning curve for users who are not familiar with it or multi-cloud networking concepts"
"There is room for improvement regarding enhancing its security features in response to modern cybersecurity challenges."
"One area that could use improvement is IPv6 support."
"The solution needs to improve the onboarding architecture."
"We had some bad trainers when we first came onboard and would rate them fairly low. They did not seem staffed properly to fulfill the training services that they offered."
"Searching and browsing through the collection must be made easier."
"We need improved query performance."
"It would be better if there were more integration capabilities with other products."
"The product's file storage documentation needs improvement."
"Going forward, we would like to have pure AWS Cloud (native) storage instead regular storage on the AWS integration side."
"The UI application for MongoDB crashes a lot, so we would have to use a third-party plugin to make it work."
"The product's data aggregation feature needs to work faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is quite expensive."
"During the initial phase, it operates as an open-source and it's a free tool."
"Aviatrix is a pretty expensive solution."
"It operates on a consumption-based model and the expenses depend on factors such as the number of virtual machines you use and the resources consumed."
"For our service, it was around 300 to 600 euros per month, which was acceptable for our customers."
"I am using the free version of the solution."
"The price of MongoDB Atlas is highly expensive to use and maintain. They are taking advantage of the users with such a high price."
"The price of MongoDB Atlas is highly affordable."
"In my previous company, the product allowed use to build a database in a highly regulated environment with the ability to get distributed storage. We used MongoDB as a distributed storage to set up this environment for a critical business application with millions of dollars."
"Pricing could always be better."
"The pricing and licensing is great."
"It is an open-source platform."
