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.

Good monitoring and alerting capability, and it is easy to deploy
This solution is good for configuration management. The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training. ManageEngine is easy to deploy. It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network. The alerting capability is good and it will send out emails.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is we can use InfluxDB to integrate with and plug into any other tools."
"InfluxDB has played a key role in enhancing system reliability and supporting our goal of delivering a seamless, high-quality product."
"InfluxDB works as expected with excellent scalability and stability, which is critical for our application."
"My advice for others looking into using InfluxDB is to use it the same way I did, because it is really stable, easy and friendly to use, and it is a great product overall."
"Based on InfluxDB, we have great analytics produced by our SRE team, and with that, we have an alerting and monitoring system in place."
"It helps me maintain my solution easily because it is very reliable, so we didn't face any performance issues or crashes regarding our queries; we can get the results very fast."
"As a time series database, it is very powerful and lightweight, and it can deal with heavy workloads very easily."
"The solution is very powerful."
"The technical support is good."
"All I know is that when it comes to managing the active directory, ManageEngine is something I consider to be the best."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"I would suggest you use this product as it's easy for administration, and is based on distributed model support."
"The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training."
"Customer Service: Absolutely fantastic."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"The primary use case of this solution is to manage and to protect the web servers, the mail server, and the website in my company."
 

Cons

"InfluxDB can be improved by addressing issues such as performance drops, queries being more difficult to understand, and its high memory usage."
"The interface of InfluxDB is so complex and should be made easier for non-technical people."
"InfluxDB is generally stable, but we've encountered issues with the configuration file in our ticket stack. For instance, a mistake in one of the metrics out of a hundred KPIs can disrupt data collection for all KPIs. This happens because the agent stops working if there's an issue with any configuration part. To address this, it is essential to ensure that all configurations are part of the agent's EXE file when provided. This makes it easier to package the agent for server installation and ensures all KPIs are available from the server. Additionally, the agent cannot encrypt and decrypt passwords for authentication, which can be problematic when monitoring URLs or requiring authentication tokens. This requires additional scripting and can prolong service restart times."
"The solution's UI can be more user-friendly."
"If it gets a little bit more into the metric side, then it would really be great, similar to Prometheus."
"InfluxDB can improve by including new metrics on other technologies. They had some changes recently to pool data from endpoints but the functionality is not good enough in the industry."
"The error logging capability can be improved because the logs are not very informative."
"However, I do wish the documentation and community resources around Flux were more extensive and beginner-friendly."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"This is because of the lack of available technical knowledge in terms of competence and maximizing the power of the product."
"The GUI could be improved."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"ManageEngine needs to fix the downtime scheduler for SNMP monitored devices. Alarms are still generated for the devices placed into scheduled maintenance."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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