Elastic Recognized as a Leader in 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Observability Platforms
Second consecutive recognition for Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute
Elastic (NYSE:ESTC), the Search AI Company, announced it has been positioned by Gartner as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant for Observability Platforms for its offering, Elastic Observability. The evaluation was based on specific criteria that analyzed the company's overall Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute.
"Visibility alone isn't enough; customers need rapid context-rich insights to troubleshoot complex systems," said Santosh Krishnan, general manager, Observability & Security at Elastic. "We feel Elastic's recognition as a Leader in this year's Gartner Magic Quadrant reflects how our open, scalable architecture with AI-driven capabilities is transforming observability from a reactive tool into a solution for real-time investigations while keeping costs low."
We believe Elastic's placement as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant reflects its continued investment in open standards, AI-driven innovation, breadth of capabilities, and deployment flexibility. The key differentiators that set Elastic apart are:
- OpenTelemetry-native support: Elastic integrates natively with OpenTelemetry, allowing organizations to standardize on open-source instrumentation without custom connectors.
- AI-driven assistance: Elastic includes a built-in AI Assistant that connects to enterprise knowledge using Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) for accurate answers helping teams triage incidents and troubleshoot using natural language, reducing time-to-insight across logs, metrics, and traces.
- Zero-config AIOps: Elastic's out-of-the-box machine learning capabilities automatically detect anomalies, forecast trends, and uncover patterns across logs, metrics, and traces.
- Advanced analytics: Elastic's powerful piped query language (ES|QL) streamlines complex investigations by allowing advanced and faster queries across observability data.
- Optimized cost, scale and performance: Elastic's Search AI Lake supports petabytes of structured and unstructured data, enabling cost-efficient, high performance data storage without retention compromises.
"By using Elastic and consolidating multiple tools, we reduced our root cause analysis time by 80%," said Eva Ulicevic, director, Technology, Architecture, Strategy, and Analytics at Telefónica Germany. "We also reduced incidents that could severely impact our business."
Powered by Elastic's Search AI Platform, Elastic Observability helps organizations monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize their entire ecosystem from infrastructure and application performance to end-user experience.
