What do you like best about IBM Event Streams?

Since its built on Kafka, there's more reachability among the people who uses it and the better built interface is a very positive side among other competitors. And it's very easy to manage and plan different events. Much helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Event Streams?

In using downstreams, the minimal features and the rate of releases were slow, which makes us feel that there's no upgrades and other than that there's poor marketing of the product. I hope it reaches more customers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Event Streams solving and how is that benefiting you?

Data center loss, the major benefit i could say. Because of the availability and reliability, deployment in the multi-zone, this actually solves the highlighed problem. And being in Apache Kafka which is open source, this is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
