Featured Reviews

Mugeesh Husain - PeerSpot reviewer
Team Lead, Software at Energybox
Time series data has been managed efficiently for IoT sensors but reporting still needs improvement
How InfluxDB can be improved is relevant since for Energy Box, we face certain issues. We have customers worldwide, including the United States, United Kingdom, and Europe, but when we expanded to China two years ago, they indicated that they do not support the cloud version there. Our application is built on the cloud, which required us to create a separate application for Azure China, which was painful for us. The second issue involves frequent version changes. For example, we started with version one, transitioned to version two, and I heard they are considering InfluxDB version three, reverting to earlier practices. InfluxDB should improve without completely changing its approach. Now we have to redo our work for InfluxDB version three. Regarding needed improvements, the documentation is sufficient, but pricing presents a challenge. InfluxDB has standard pricing, which is acceptable for large companies. However, for startups in our position, they should provide special discounts so everyone can utilize it. The pricing should adapt as companies grow, which is a reasonable expectation.

Users value data-driven insights for optimizing business operations
The most important features are the site-to-site user experience, including details like how many users are on a site, the number of users on an SSID, and identifying guest users in business premises. These features help in understanding peak times during business hours and are highly valued by customers in Qatar.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"While I would rate InfluxDB a ten on a scale of one to ten, users should be thoughtful about matching the engine to their specific needs."
"The most valuable features are aggregating the data and integration with Graphana for monitoring."
"The platform operates very quickly. It is easy to configure, connect, and query and integrates seamlessly with Grafana."
"This product has been working well and it is serving our purpose, so I can recommend it to others."
"The solution is very powerful."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is we can use InfluxDB to integrate with and plug into any other tools."
"InfluxDB positively impacts my organization because I have optimized my database storage, and by using powerful queries, I am able to find my data logs efficiently and also manage logging."
"Prior to InfluxDB usage, real-time data was not visualized and monitored, and after the introduction of InfluxDB in the entire framework, the organization is benefiting a lot in terms of monitoring and understanding performance data in real-time."
"The solution is stable due to its Cloud-based nature, which eliminates downtime or crashing issues."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
 

Cons

"I chose an 8 out of 10 because there is room for improvement, such as regarding backups and enhanced security through other types of authentication or encrypted data in TLS."
"In terms of features that I would like to see or have, in the community version, some features are not available. I would like to have clustering and authentication in the community version."
"Customer support is fair enough but can be improved."
"I haven't seen a return on investment; unfortunately, I cannot share relevant metrics such as time saved, fewer employees needed, or money saved."
"The interface of InfluxDB is so complex and should be made easier for non-technical people."
"One area for improvement is the querying language. InfluxDB deprecated FluxQL, which was intuitive since developers are already familiar with standard querying."
"Sometimes, when we write too much data within a minute, the data count becomes excessive, reaching perhaps 100,000 or 500,000 data points, and InfluxDB gives a timeout exception, which we must handle in our application."
"If it gets a little bit more into the metric side, then it would really be great, similar to Prometheus."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Before October 2024, there was room for improvement in the UI to make it more user-friendly. The Client Insight page on Juniper Mist Premium Analytics could be made simpler."
"The technical support needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is an open-source product."
"InfluxDB is open-source, but there are additional costs for scaling."
"We are using the open-source version of InfluxDB."
"The solution is expensive."
