Streamlined our data visualization and analysis processes, enabling less technical team members to handle data-driven tasks independently
Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities. While it serves well for data visualization, it lacks more dynamic features that allow users to interact with data directly through the dashboard. For the next release, including interactive widgets and reporting tools that allow actions on digital assets directly from the dashboard would be beneficial. This functionality would make Superset a more comprehensive digital analytics platform suitable for interactive data exploration and operational management. Implementing actionable buttons for security controls and dashboard management could significantly enhance user interaction, making it more suitable for real-time data manipulation and decision-making.

Gokul Sekar - PeerSpot reviewer

Offers powerful features for data exploration and analysis
Splunk Enterprise Platform needs some improvement. For instance, the dashboard sizing and customization options could be enhanced. There seems to be a limitation in adjusting the size of individual panels within a dashboard. This can be frustrating when comparing data across different panels, as users are forced to scroll continuously. Additionally, while Splunk offers some new features like student dashboards, modifying these dashboards requires a level of JavaScript expertise that not all users possess. Providing more user-friendly options for customization, such as adjusting colors and fonts directly from the user interface, could greatly improve the user experience. Moreover, for users transitioning from other monitoring tools like Dynatrace, the interface may feel less intuitive and more cumbersome. Offering more intuitive visualization options and simplifying the customization process could bridge this gap and make Splunk more accessible to a wider range of users.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution supports a rich set of charts and enables users to create their own dashboards."
"It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category."
"The no-code interface is the most valuable as it allows us to operate without constant support from the data engineering team, fostering a self-service environment."
"The most valuable feature of Apache Superset is the easy way to configure dashboards as reports or analyses and it's easy to use and intuitive. Users do not need a lot of training to use the solution."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Easy setup and maintenance"
"The product helps monitor and visualize data. It allows you to handle various tasks. You can store, visualize, and analyze data with the Splunk Enterprise Platform. It offers features like virtual folders and heavy folders for filtering data. Additionally, you can create dashboards to showcase data to different teams and stakeholders. The tool also enables the creation of analytics and alerts and sends reports, making it a valuable tool for our system."
"Splunk Enterprise Platform can be used for security, IT monitoring, and observability."
"The best thing about Splunk is you can collect all the data you want, and you can play with the data and do what you want."

Cons

"Dynamic dashboarding could improve to enable smooth navigation when transitioning from a higher to a lower view, allowing for easy accessibility."
"Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities."
"The platform's reporting feature needs enhancement."
"Automation in terms of APIs for creating roles, and giving privileges to the user can be improved."
"Based on my experience, I've noticed areas for improvement, particularly in support. Developers typically interact with support personnel who may lack technical expertise when raising support tickets. This can result in delays as initial interactions involve sharing documents before escalation to higher support levels."
"Things have to be managed manually"
"Splunk is not an out-of-the-box solution like Micro Focus or Zabbix. You have to create your request to collect the data and add crucial components to the software."
"Splunk can be used primarily to port log files, allowing for easy and quick management of large amounts of logs. However, this can also be a drawback due to the configuration, parsing, and dashboard creation limitations. Communication is stream-based, which means you need to do a lot of pre-emptive setup to get a nice export."
"The product doesn’t have prebuilt dashboards."
"Areas for improvement include enhancing dashboards, reports, alerts, and the monitoring console."
"There should be continuous customer engagement and training programs on the new features and capabilities introduced by the solution."
"The tool lacked in providing a shareable format. I had to use pivot tables and manually parse and edit the data to create a visualization-friendly format. It was helpful when we had an issue. What would make it stronger is if it were more proactive. For example, if it highlighted major incidents and their impact on users without digging through notifications, that would be better. Typically, the first question we get is, "Oh, we had an incident. How bad was it? How many customers were impacted?" So having that information pop up from the notification would be helpful."
