  • If we are getting data from other sheets then sheet which is connected to Hevo Data doesn't updates in real-time.
  • Hevo Data change time in it's workbench on its own. For e.g. If our database timestamp is in UTC format then Hevo Data will automatically change the time to IST but if I run the same code outside the Hevo Data workbench then time is still in UTC. This creates lots of confusion while working on Hevo Data.

Support Rating
The support from the Confluent platform is great and satisfying. We have been working with Confluent for more than a year now. They sent out resident architects to help us set up Confluent cluster on our cloud and help us troubleshoot problems we have encountered. Overall, it has been a great experience working with the Confluent Platform.

Alternatives Considered
For our use case it was very important that the technology we were working with fit into our Azure architecture, and met our data processing size requirements to stream data within certain SLAs. Confluent more than met our performance requirements and compared to the others scale options and cost to run it was more than financially viable as a platform solution to our global operations.
