The visualisation of dashboards on a large screen allows us to have a clear indication of issues and problems. The frequency of use is daily for us and it's important to have integration with all of our systems Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The query-based interface to generate charts is very old school and primitive. Drag and drop interfaces are available in every BI tool, and the majority are shifting to Natural Language query semantics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Grafana to monitor our whole infrastructure of linux servers and node js apps. Since we have brought in the Grafana observability into our organisation, it has saved us in many ways from going apps down to server crashing. We have used its ML feature to learn about he patterns in spikes of our server and apps health. One of the best things that we are grateful for using Grafana is its customer service almost as quickly as one can imagine which get us helps whenever we are in a situation. Grafana's alerting system is another great feature that anyone who uses Grafana knows what I am talking about. Its metrics are accurate, and can be retrieve for last 60 days. I also love how Grafana keeps updating its features. Grafana can be a great choice for anyone who is looking for a better observability platform. I use it almost everyday and there is always something new that you find on Grafana which is going to make your application monitoring better than before. When you sign up for free Grafana Cloud Online, you get unlimited number of dashboards to create, beautiful and informative ones, you get 50 GB of logs and 10 K metrics 50 GB of traces, and in my opinion that is more than enough to experience how effective and amazing a service Grafana is.
Alerting through many different medium as Slack, Email, Webhook etc Beautiful and unlimited number of dashboards to view your metrics and tweak them as you please Log aggregation and powerful Logql to filter and view your logs Microservices monitoring Large number of plugins and data sources to collect your metrics from almost anywhere

Grafana is being used as part of our monitoring solution alongside services such as Icinga. It is used to graph the uptime as well as sessions etc. This is then exported as part of our monthly review and supplied to clients as part of the billing cycle. It is also used by the support team too with the monitoring solution to spot any trends that could potentially lead to issues in the future.
Graphing lots of data Simplicity of setup Readability of logs

We're using Grafana for visualizing Prometheus metrics which comes from our Kubernetes clusters and other Application and Enterprise tools servers and sending alerts on our collaboration channels whenever a metric is breeching defined threshold. There are a lot of paid tools [that] are available in the market, but nothing is better than Grafana.
It visualizes metrics very well coming from any well known data source. It sends alerts to collaboration channels when a threshold is breeched. Graphs and dashboards are portable (Graph-as-a-Code).

Overall: Grafana was the first visualization tool we used with our students. We are still using it because it makes it possible to explain the whole visualisation process of data. Starting from getting data in a database to make realtime visualizations and error reporting possible. Due to real time visualization of the data, we can make savings in the company. Next to that we can make calculations of optimization possibilities of the campus (heat and electricity) which are very usefull to save more energy.

Overall: Visualising got easy to manage cloud monitoring services as able to integrate different clouds on the same dashboard. It can be easily configured with most Databases as Relational, Time-Series. The alert system is the most effective one which we can make use of in Grafana to set the Alerts and all.
