Considered Both Products
Datameer
Chose Datameer
Based on our findings, we are unable to utilize the Apache Hive platform due to the associated costs. We also looked into Informatica, but decided against it because of its expensive pricing and poor integration with other BI products. Those unfamiliar with SQL may nevertheless …
Chose Datameer
Pricing, support, and ease of use. We plan to scale up our data over the net few years and Datameer gives us all the things we need in one tool. Handles large transformations quickly and works with all the cloud data warehouses.

Chose Datameer
Not sure how to compare Datameer with other products, it has a flavor of Excel and PowerPivot, it leverages D3.js and HTML5 for visualizations. The modeling capabilities are one of its strongest aspects. We've been looking at Tableau, Qlikview, Microstrategy, Cognos Insight, …
Chose Datameer
I have compared Datameer with the tools listed above and it blows them out of the water. Datameer is much more user friendly than these tools and is also a lot more powerful. Once the Q1 release comes out with drill down capabilities on the infographics, Datameer will surpass …
Chose Datameer
Datameer was not chosen to exclude other tools. Other tools are still used and gaining traction due to their suitability to a task and due to cost-effectiveness of license models. Every organization needs to determine the best approach to the data flow into and out of Hadoop, …
Kibana
Chose Kibana
Well when it comes to using Kibana when compared to Datadog, I can say that Kibana is pretty [...] cheap. Apart from APM and Datadog hosted agents, Kibana gives a good competition to Datadog for real time log analysis as well as metrics analysis.
While OpsGenie is a great tool …
Chose Kibana
Stackdriver and CloudWatch are not as intuitive and easy-to-use as Kibana, and do not offer such advanced filtering capabilities.

Google BigQuery is not really suitable for real-time searches.

Datameer's workbooks include an intuitive GUI for maximum usability. Anyone with an analytical mind may easily compile data using the built-in worksheet capability without requiring much technological knowledge. Ad hoc reports may now be made and scheduled. In addition, I haven't had too much problem fixing things because I can get most of the answers I want there.

Great for teams big and small that want a single pane of glass for understanding their systems, from dev, to staging, to production. Well-suited for teams that need to preserve logs for long-term compliance reasons, and also mine their logs for useful operational insights. Highly recommended as both an open source project and a commercial offering with fantastic paid support.

Employees with intermediate SQL and Hive knowledge can generate reports faster than using Datameer . It does have visualization tool but I don't think it is anything that cannot be accomplished by importing the data in Excel

Usability
Easy to use for most things, starts to require some planning as your projects get more complex.
Read full review
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.

Well when it comes to using Kibana when compared to Datadog, I can say that Kibana is pretty [...] cheap. Apart from APM and Datadog hosted agents, Kibana gives a good competition to Datadog for real time log analysis as well as metrics analysis. While OpsGenie is a great tool for alerting, it lacks visualization when compared to Kibana. Grafana is another opensource tool that gives a lot of insights like Kibana but Grafana cannot be easily integrated with OpenSearch.
