Amazing product, remains the undisputed leader in the observability market. My overall impression is that it is a power user's dream - highly composable and capable of turning nearly any data source into an actionable dashboard.

Grafana is quite stable and reliable. Running whole LGMT stack has some operational challenges. I wish loki had more searching capabilities.

Grafana Enterprise Stack Likes & Dislikes

Like

Agnostic data integration: Unlike competitors, Grafana's greatest strength is its ability to join data from disparate sources. You can view business metrics from a SQL database right next to infra metrics from Prometheus in the same panel. Vibrant Ecosystem: The plugin library is massive. Whether you're monitoring a Kubernetes cluster or a smart home, there is likely a pre-built dashboard available. Visual Excellence: The UI for dashboards is world-class. With the intro of advanced 2026 features like AI-driven anomaly detection and adaptive metrics, the platform does more than just show data; it helps you interpret it. Cost Efficiency: The open source version remains free and highly capable, allowing startups to build enterprise-grade monitoring without initial licensing fees.

Like

open source and still quite powerful and complete

Like

I especially like the flexibility, scalability, tenant management and token-based authentication. The implementation definitely requires some advanced planning, however. I like the fact that it offers a fully-standardized observability platform.

Dislike

Simple dashboards are easy, but advanced alerting and complex queries often require deep knowledge of Promql. For non-technical stakeholders, the barrier to entry remains high.

Dislike

a lot of services with some complexity, loki searching experience is not great in comparison with other logging tools

Dislike

As with any metric/log stack, it is complex and requires advanced engineering and planning for proper implementation and especially scale. It is not something that can run under someone's desk and carries quite a bit of operational complexity (object storage, compute, upgrade paths, query tuning, dashboard work, etc.). Depending on what you'd like to do with the stack, cost and licensing overhead need to be considered very carefully.

    Grafana is a great product. We use it to monitor productive applications and all of its available features gives us different approaches and points of view. Metrics, traces, profilings, all of these signals together takes our observability stack into another level.
