Featured Reviews

Louis McCoy - PeerSpot reviewer
Searches through billions of documents have become impressively fast and consistent
The seamless scalability is something I see as among the best features Elastic Search offers. The speed with which Elastic Search is able to search through all of the documents we place into it is quite remarkable, as we search through 65 billion documents in less than a second in most cases, on a constant consistent basis. I find configuring relevant searches within Elastic Search platform very straightforward. Elastic Search is easily scalable. The customer support for Elastic Search is quite good. I advise others looking into using Elastic Search to think about the future of your platform and where you intend it to be in five years, and based on that, which version of Elastic Search best suits the needs of your platform. Additionally, jump into the AI products first as you're in the planning phase so that as you're filling out your data, the AI products and machine learning products can enrich the data real-time early on in the process, which will save you a lot of time later. The overall performance of the platform, scalability of the platform and other additional features, especially when it comes to AI, really earn the nine.

Higher conversion rates with an advanced algorithm and intuitive interface
An area for improvement is the interface language, as our team mainly speaks French. Offering a French-language option would significantly enhance accessibility and streamline usage. Additionally, simplifying interactions with the Luigi's Box team, such as through localized support or tools tailored to non-English-speaking users, would improve collaboration. These changes would ensure a more seamless integration of the solution into our daily operations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The search speed is most valuable and important."
"The solution is valuable for log analytics."
"The initial setup is fairly simple."
"I like how it allows us to connect to Kafka and get this data in a document format very easily. Elasticsearch is very fast when you do text-based searches of documents. That area is very good, and the search is very good."
"The solution has good security features. I have been happy with the dashboards and interface."
"It is stable."
"There's lots of processing power. You can actually just add machines to get more performance if you need to. It's pretty flexible and very easy to add another log. It's not like 'oh, no, it's going to be so much extra data'. That's not a problem for the machine. It can handle it."
"It is easy to scale with the cluster node model.​"
"Within the dashboard, the application offers data analysis that works with different views of the customer data. This data is graphically processed and thus does not need to be further modified for better interpretation."
"Luigi's Box is helpful in implementing even non-standard requirements."
"Luigi's Box has brought substantial enhancements to our company, particularly by enriching the search experience on our website. Through its powerful search capabilities, our customers can effortlessly locate their desired products, resulting in heightened satisfaction and conversion rates."
"Luigi's Box is an excellent tool that solves our problems with the search and recommended products in the carousels."
"With its advanced algorithm and intuitive interface, this tool makes setting up the product feed simple and efficient."
"In analytics, we can see what our visitors can't find with us, because we can look in history to see what products they wanted to search for and couldn't find. We can see the exact number of people who wanted to find something."
"The seamless integration with our e-commerce platform has made it easy to implement and manage, allowing us to focus on delivering a top-notch user experience."
"Luigi's Box was easy to implement and allowed me to get started quickly."
 

Cons

"I don't see improvements at the moment. The current setup is working well for me, and I'm satisfied with it. Integrating with different platforms is also fine, and I'm not recommending any changes or enhancements right now."
"The price could be better. Kibana has some limitations in terms of the tablet to view event logs. I also have a high volume of data. On the initialization part, if you chose Kibana, you'll have some limitations. Kibana was primarily proposed as a log data reviewer to build applications to the viewer log data using Kibana. Then it became a virtualization tool, but it still has limitations from a developer's point of view."
"Technical support should be faster."
"We have an issue with the volume of data that we can handle."
"New Relic could be more flexible, similar to Elasticsearch."
"They could improve some of the platform's infrastructure management capabilities."
"The pricing of this product needs to be more clear because I cannot understand it when I review the website."
"The solution must provide AI integrations."
"However, we know that there's always room for improvement, and Luigi's Box has already made a lot of progress and it is still increasing its value and adding new features."
"Enhancing the user interface to be more intuitive and user-friendly could significantly reduce the learning curve for new users."
"The product is already at a very high level, but there is always room for further improvements, especially when we want to keep up with specific requirements and rapidly changing market trends."
"We have been using the service for more than two years, and our experience is only positive."
"Enhancing the reporting and analytics capabilities would provide us with deeper insights into user behavior and search trends, helping us optimize our offerings further."
"Our products are really diverse. Not everything can be done automatically, and manual intervention is required."
"Our team mainly speaks French. Offering a French-language option would significantly enhance accessibility and streamline usage."
"When setting up banner ads in the search window, it takes a long time for the banners to appear."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ELK has been considered as an alternative to Splunk to reduce licensing costs."
"An X-Pack license is more affordable than Splunk."
"The tool is an open-source product."
"The solution is affordable."
"The premium license is expensive."
"The tool is not expensive. Its licensing costs are yearly."
"The pricing model is questionable and needs to be addressed because when you would like to have the security they charge per machine."
"We use the free version for some logs, but not extensive use."
