"The most valuable features are security detections, perimeter detection, dashboards, and alerts."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."
"The dashboard and reporting are very good... It provides very good visibility in a hybrid cloud environment, and you can build custom utilization APIs using Splunk."
"We can ingest and correlate data from virtually any type of system."
"I like the search feature and the indexing. It's very fast and comprehensive."
"I like the ease with which dashboards can be created."
"The product is good, it satisfies our customers."
"Support is quick and competent."
"Our clients use the solution to find any threats or vulnerabilities inside their environment."
"It has helped us look at modern technology, as well as penetrate our legacy systems, to see where the bottlenecks are."
"They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"This solution would be improved if it had the ability to retain data longer."
"We'd like to see a local presence within the region in order to have seamless service whether it's the support, the implementation, or professional services."
"They either have to go broad or decide what their bread and butter is and get really good at that."
"Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"The threat detection system has room for improvement."
"An area of improvement would be the licensing of the solution. They need a free license, which would allow faster lead times."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can provide more details and help CISOs resolve vulnerability situations better. The reason is that the tools we choose for data analysis and log collection cannot collect all the data and logs. Splunk Enterprise Security should help me with this, but it cannot."
"While Splunk offers SOAR as a separate product, integrating it into the next version of Splunk Enterprise Security as a unified solution would be beneficial."
"My biggest struggle with Splunk in general is memorizing all the commands. If I want to know which users have logged in between certain hours, I cannot write that query out. It would be helpful to have AI so that I can explain in simple terms what I want and then the search gives that back to me. I am waiting for that."
"We were inundated with the amount of alerts and alarms that we could get out of it. It is also a resource hog and we didn't have the resources to support it on-prem so we're taking it offline now."
"The solution has a high learning curve for users. It's a little complicated when you're trying to figure out all the features and what they do."
"I would like to see an updated dashboard. The dashboard is a little out-of-date. It could be made prettier."
