About Grafana Labs delivers the leading AI-powered observability platform, built around Grafana—the world’s most widely adopted open source technology for dashboards and visualization. Recognized as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Observability Platforms (3x) and furthest in Completeness of Vision (2025, 2026), Grafana Labs supports more than 25 million users and thousands of organizations, from startups to the Fortune 500. Grafana Cloud is the open observability cloud, built on open source, open standards, and open ecosystems.

With the AI-powered Grafana Assistant and Adaptive Telemetry suite, teams detect and resolve issues faster, reduce wasteful telemetry spend, and gain real-time insights to ensure reliability. Native OTel support and 100s of integrations mean you can plug in existing tools & data sources.		About StackPulse automates and orchestrates incident response and management, enabling a continuous approach to software services reliability. The StackPulse platform gives SREs, developers and on-callers the context and control necessary to analyze, respond to, and resolve incidents across the entire stack, at any scale. StackPulse transforms how engineering and operations teams operate software and infrastructure services. Our Platform makes it easy to get started collaborating with a suite of incident management tools, from automated war room creation, to data capture and auto-generated postmortems. The data captured during these incidents then generates recommendations for playbooks and triggers that result in significant reductions in MTTR or improvements in SLO adherence. StackPulse identifies risk based on specific patterns of your organization’s unique monitoring, infrastructure, and operational data, and then recommends automated playbooks tailored to your organization.

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.
