Why not use Kibana?
I'm a fan of Kibana, but AnyChart does support some more templates (not that you couldn't accomplish the same chart in either). There's a million of these visualization libraries now and it seems like all of them are basically extensions of D3, so the selling point is the opinionated integrations.

That being said TimeLion has been great for doing some basic exploratory work.

I don't really get what this is about? Ok, connecting the technology to Elasticsearch - but it would be much more helpful if the article contains some description of a problem that is solved by doing this.

Just seems like "yeah we just wrote a doc article on how to set up our technology, let's drop it to HN and get some traffic".

edit:// It doesn't even explain HOW these things are coupled. Just download the git repository and execute it.

You have to pay for it, so this is promotion. Especially if they're targeting "enterprise"
