I have tried the X-Pack Monitoring feature in the ES using the kibana.  
I also read about the ES Marvel tool for ES Monitoring.

Does both the tool perform the same functionality?  
If I have a ES X-Pack license , again whether I need to go for Marvel?

Request to advise!

Marvel was the monitoring plugin used in very early versions of Elasticsearch. It was deprecated a long time ago and replaced by X-Pack.
