Good tooling, fairly reliable service.

  • April 14, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
I think Aiven is set up quite well to support infrastructure as code - more so than other Kafka providers.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think our company's experience with customer support has been a bit rough. There have been a number of times where we experienced issues with out cluster and nobody seemed to be able to figure out what was wrong, so we just had to try a bunch of things until something worked. It would have been better to have someone from Aiven who was able to investigate and diagnose our problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using Kafka for event-driven design among a number of microservices. The upside in areas like fault tolerance and reliability have been massive.

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to find Services, Connection information, Topics (with partitions etc.). Stability has been good as far as I know.
What do you dislike about the product?
Messages of a topic does not always show in Aiven Console ("Provide the desired filters and click "Fetch Messages" to view messages from a specific partition / offset.") (Timeout?)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We store events about push notifications, compacted device status, and much more.

Fantastic DB as a service

  • April 08, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hosting and scaling massive databases can be challenging, Aiven makes it look easy and efforless
What do you dislike about the product?
I've had a fantastic experience so it's hard to say
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are running a SaaS company, from the beginning we knew that we can excel on the product, but the most critical piece was our data. We wanted to have someone who really knows what they are doing do it for us. Aiven was a easy solution. Our systems are deployed in Google Cloud and their hosted postgres only works for demos but is not production ready. So we needed a 3rd party solution

Web UI is really easy to use, and connections to instance are easy to setup.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you could setup roles and access for user directly in Aiven UI that would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We just needed a database, so this is as easy as it gets.

Managed service that takes the complexity of setting up the cluster, zookeeper, and other things from your team hand and let you just faster into the actual functionality. It's like I have a team of Kafka experts in my company

Setting up the security credentials and certificates is still a little painful, more automation on this part would be great
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We built a data pipeline over terabytes of requests for information we need to buy advertisement at the best price for our customers.
