"Our department needs data from different systems. With Peakboard, all data sources can be united in one overview. The time saved is enormous, as the data from the upstream systems is syncronized automatically and, above all, live. We can now take action based on the real-time data without wasting time.

"You can dig into plotting simple data. If you like it a bit prettier, you can also use the countless templates and customize them easily. If you do need support, it is 100% on point and very personally interested. We used to implement wallboards with the help of old Windows laptops. I was thrilled that there was such a super solution for this to be handled more professionally."

Why Peakboard is the better solution.
Reliability
Other than Grafana, Peakboard offers its own hardware devices designed to work seamlessly with its software. Peakboard not only allows you to read, combine, process, and visualize your data. You can also write it back to the source system or share it with your machines.
Grafana is renowned for its reliability in monitoring, visualization, and alerting for diverse data sources, especially in IT and DevOps environments. It’s well-supported, with extensive documentation and a large user community.
User friendly
Grafana is user-friendly, the level of ease can depend on the complexity of the data and the specific requirements of the visualization or analysis. Users with basic IT knowledge can quickly learn how to use Grafana effectively, but more complex setups and advanced features might require a steeper learning curve and a deeper understanding of the underlying data sources and querying languages.
Peakboard offers a user-friendly drag-and-drop interface for designing dashboards and visualizations. If you prioritize ease of use and quick setup, particularly for users without extensive technical expertise, Peakboard might be a more suitable option.
Fast results
One Workshop Day: That’s it. With Peakboard you can optimize your efficiency very easy and experience a ROI of 237 %. While Grafana puts its focus on integration capabilities. A basic implementation with Grafana is really depending on the size of the project but minimum a day or longer. This allows results to be visualized more quickly with Peakboard.
