Kibana vs. Roambi (discontinued)

Kibana is indeed a powerful tool and has many use cases especially in environments that rely heavily on real-time log analysis and visualisation. Kibana’s ability to handle large volumes of log data and present it in an accessible, searchable format is invaluable. We use Kibana to monitor security related issues and it proactively alerts our Slack channels about any anomality or issues.

Getting Roambi up to speed in your company certainly is a quick win. After just a few days, several of our reports were mobilized, interactive and automatically updated. Building Roambi reports is not hard to do; the intuitive interface allows virtually any type of user to create his or her own reports.

• Fast searches with powerful index.
• Beautiful data visualizations.
• Real-time observability.

• Report templates that are easy to learn, use, update and maintain.
• Great looking reports that stay up-to-date with what Apple is producing. When Apple rolled out the new look and feel to their iOS7 release, Roambi created a brand new set of reports within two weeks to go along with the iOS7 changes.
• Seamless integration with our existing BI environment, SAP Business Objects XI, 3.1. This drastically reduced the time from purchase to client-ready roll out from months to weeks.

• Some performance issues with large datasets.
• Linking to dashboards makes extremely long urls.
• Lack of reports.

I would definitely use Roambi again because of its ease-of-use, but its lack of customization ability makes it difficult to recommend to businesses as business needs are always changing. People are picky, and on the Roambi project, we were not able to fully live up to the customer's expectations, limited by Roambi's preset limitations.

Its usability is generally good and it provides teams with a basic to intermediate understanding about data visualization. It is very user-friendly when it comes to creating dashboards. The UI is very good and simple. Its integration with other tools for alerting and reporting is amazing. But its advance features have a learning curve and a first timer needs some time to use the advance features.

VERY easy to use. Only limited by how the graphs and data is initially set up.

We did not use the official Kibana support. Documentation was easy enough to follow.

Kibana is free; it was the first and only thing we've tried in this area.

We have compared Roambi against Business Objects, Reporting Services (on tablet) and Cubeware Cockpit. All those solutions lack in support of touch capabilities and responsiveness. Roambi "feels" just right. There is no training required and users love to explore the application. Compared to Roambi all other solutions feel very technical and hard to understand.

• Issues that affect checkout experiences for customers are able to be prioritized and solved quickly.
• We are able to more efficiently use resources due to the automation of reporting alerts. Decreasing employee resources needed.
• Visualization allows us to quickly share issues and explain to coworkers in order to escalate issues that can cost our bottom line.

• Increased insights on customer success metrics (using a Layers report).
• Higher motivation of employees, better communication towards employees, tighter bonds with the company - because of Roambi Flow. Periodic Flow magazines with analytic capabilities are sent out to the employees, as we value frequent and meaningful contact - both ways.
