Type of review

We have used this product to monitor our production environment which has more than 100 nodes in it with 1000s of topics/partitions (around 300 GB data). It helped us quickly identify any issues we were having at runtime without needing an expert engineer or manual intervention from time intervals as before using other tools like confluent control center etc.,We can easily see all relevant metrics about each node alongwith details such logs generated by consumers & producers so far within last

Pros
  • Fastest way ever, very less latency
  • Great UI looks much appealing comparing rest others similar products available over market place that doesn't worth spending money even though goodlooking ! :)
Cons
  • Nothing , still waiting eagerly hoping one day will get them onboarded soon
