Reliable and Responsive Kafka Hosting Service

  • May 21, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We have been running Aiven’s Apache Kafka service in our Industrial IoT data ingestion system. They have been a reliable and responsive partner for our organization's event-driven architecture, enabling us to run our systems smoothly with a small team of engineers.

Their responsiveness to customer support requests is remarkable. Whenever we've encountered issues or needed assistance, their team has promptly and effectively addressed our concerns. With their deep expertise in Kafka, it is reassuring to have their knowledgeable professionals available to assist us whenever needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one limitation in using Aiven (or any managed Kafka service for that matter) is the difficulty to run custom connectors or plugins in your cluster. I understand the difficulty involved in taking in external code while providing gurantees or security and stability. Regardless, the benefits outweight this limitation and we are willing to pay the price of running our own little Connect cluster for our custom code as a satellite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven Apache Kafka powers our Industrial IoT data ingestion services. With Kafka we can ingest large quantities of data reliably while mantaining a lot of flexibility to evolve our data pipelines over time. With Kafka at the core of our architecture we can add or update our systems to scale or meet new requirements with reliability.

What do you like best about the product?
Everything about Aiven has been great to power our company's analytics and has truly been a set-it-and-forget-it piece of our infrastructure. Aiven has been extremely responsive with their support and has been great at working with us to fit to our custom needs. We have had no notable outages in the last 3 years of our partnership together. It is flexibile with the cloud providers allowed and is very cost effective. Would recommend it!
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the thing that could use the most love would be the initial learning curve on how to set custom specifications. At the beginning we had to use settings that weren't well documented to have everything play smoothly, but the support quickly sorted that out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It powers our data warehouse and serves as the point where all data flows through.

That fact that everything is managed by professionals focusing on delivering a great service. With clear pricing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, all is good, I believe. Great service and great documentation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves time constrains we have by allowing us to not manage our Kafka environment.

Aiven has consistently given our team database management superpowers

  • October 20, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Zero downtime upgrades, database forking, point-in-time recovery, multi-replica deployments, added services marketplace. Aiven has been rock solid and predictable. Focus on core products and services is also greatly appreciated!
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a distinct lack of out-of-the-box alerting policies. It's possible to send logs into centralized storage, but the value of Aiven is opinionated defaults, not making customers figure out how to monitor their databases properly. This seems to be low hanging fruit that should be straightforward to address.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven has allowed us to consolidate all of our HA database hosting needs with backup and disaster recovery mechanisms that we can rely on without ongoing maintenance.

It's allowing us to provide realtime updates to our end user.
