Schema less is making its most powerful features and base of this entire product. > > **Cons**: Only cons we are facing right now is its major version Upgrades and breaking change. > > We are building a new and next generation product and we are using elastic in all search or autocomplete area of the application. Its really fast and powerful tool. ----- ### "Excellent Tool When Used Correctly" — 4.0/5 > **Damon** | *30 March 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Elasticsearch simplifies data queries and integration with user interfaces. Describing the records as JSON makes updates as simple as modifying your JSON format. The query builders make selecting complex data relationships easy to construct. > > **Cons**: As designed and by default, Elastcsearch does not immediately synchronize data between server nodes. Updates and inserts to records take time to reconcile which can cause some data integrity issues with frequent updates. ES is not the best tool to take bulk or rapid changes to the data. It is a great tool for retrieving data. The best combination is to use a SQL database for CRUD operations and replicate/synchronize the data to Elasticsearch for user interface/reporting. ----- ### "ElasticSearch\_02-07-2022" — 5.0/5 > **Osman** | *2 July 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is good to store and monitor logs with Kibana. > > **Cons**: The elasticsearch version management is bad because next version could have critical changes from previous. > > I use it log search. ----- ### "Quality Search and Analytics Software" — 5.0/5 > **Wechuli** | *7 April 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: - Powerful and fast, near-real-time search capabilities that can handle massive amounts of data with a breeze. - Free, you can download the software and use it on your own infrastructure without any license concerns - Ability to enhance search speed and storage capacity by building clusters that store part of the data. Configuring of clusters is fairly straightforward and easy to do. - Machine learning capabilities - API clients available for popular programming languages such as PHP, Python, JavaScript, Java , GO and C\#. - Convenient cloud offering that makes the deployment, security and configuration of an ES cluster super easy. - Free Kibana client to visualize data in ElasticSearch > > **Cons**: - A bit of a learning curve to get up to speed with the query language - There are some nuances and security pitfalls that you might run into if you try to configure an ElasticSearch cluster yourself. > > Elasticsearch has been a powerful search engine that caters to most of my search and analytics use cases. ----- ### "Significant upgrade to our search capabilities" — 4.0/5 > **Gabriel M.** | *31 August 2018* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The flexibility, it's free, large community and plenty of tools > > **Cons**: You have to use 3rd party tools in order to make the best of it (management mainly). It's JAVA, so GC could be an issue. > > We refactored our search engine and used ElasticSearch as a back-end. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/132343/elasticsearch?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/132343/elasticsearch) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
