Pros from Real Users Pros Grafana is a trusted tool for a reason, and as such I've used it every company I have worked for. The tool makes creating new dashboards a breeze. And with their new AI tool, you can update and create dashboards with confidence. When our network dashboard broke due to a plugin deprecating, the AI tool was able to recommend a new plugin, build the dashboard, and configure it based on SNMP logs it read from our central log store. It even recommended things to configure alerts on and added more metrics for us to track.
