Provides real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution
INETCO offers monitoring that helps the customer to have a quick way to detect their problems. It shows quickly the root cause of problems, and can give specific details from the transaction (from when the transaction started). It shows a lot of details related to that transaction. * It's a non-intrusive solution. * It provides real-time information alerts. * We can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution. The customer can save time and money because it's a way of detecting the root cause of problems. For banks, it helps customers from fraud that many banks are experiencing. Therefore, customers can be more secure in their transactions, and banks can monitor fraud.

Helps us detect cyber threats quickly and integrate multiple feeds effectively
Overall, the product is good, but when it comes to some infrastructure issues, we have to dig into more logs. There is no straightforward indication of an issue. Health check kind of dashboards are not available. More AI would help us, and more optimization, since security products run more queries. The AI module could suggest solutions, optimizing queries or workload balancing. If the product itself advises on running queries during peak times, it would be similar to what ChatGPT currently offers. We see quite a few issues on stability. Even last week, we faced something, and identifying bottlenecks is not easy. We need more SMEs, and there is no mechanism to tell us about indexer or search head issues. Self-monitoring dashboards could be beneficial. The technical support still requires more improvement. Often, primary support takes a lot of time and forwards most solutions to the engineering side. The primary support team has very limited knowledge to provide.

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

Pros

"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"INETCO offers monitoring that helps the customer to have a quick way to detect their problems."
"We can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"Regarding the impact on threat detection capabilities, it provides a faster mean time to detect."
"When it comes to leveraging Splunk Enterprise Security's dashboards and visualizations to communicate security posture to executives, it's pretty straightforward for any type of information."
"Splunk is powerful when sorting huge amounts of data."
"The features of Splunk Enterprise Security that I appreciate the most are its flexibility and scalability, as it integrates disparate security solutions, offers many out-of-the-box apps through Splunkbase, enables straightforward customization, and supports efficient detection and alerting processes that improve overall business resilience."
"Immensely, I cannot stress enough the positive impact this has had on our security team."
"Great platform with user-friendly interface and GUI."
"On average, my security ops team takes fairly quickly to remediate security incidents with Splunk Enterprise Security, depending on the use case, minutes versus hours, compared to my previous solution, which was ArcSight."
"Splunk Enterprise Security offers valuable features like seamless integration and a SQL-standard Structured Query Language for easy searching."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"Writing queries is a bit complicated sometimes."
"I would like to get visibility into the data pipelines on heavy forwarders and indexers to see exactly their source and the cause of saturation when it occurs. This would help us learn even more about our high use applications."
"The price of the solution could be cheaper."
"Adding custom visualization in Splunk has been improved over the years but can still be made better by integrating more and more JavaScript visualization sources."
"I think Splunk Enterprise Security is relatively scalable, but it relies on your company's capability to get the appropriate and good data inside of Splunk. Without that maturity, Splunk suffers immensely."
"The historical data extraction needs improvement. I would like the capability of taking data and having it trend longer."
"In the next release, they should include machine learning-based rules that would streamline the process of finding anomalies."
"I'd say I am happy with the technical support, not elated. They provide great support, but sometimes they don't have the answers that I need."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"It's a little bit expensive for a small to medium enterprise."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is not at all cost-friendly to be deployed in very small enterprises like start-ups."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is priced lower than competitors."
"The licensing is good, but the pricing absolutely needs some work. It is very high."
"Splunk differs from other SIEM solutions by using a gigabyte-based pricing model, rather than the agent-based licenses common with its competitors."
"Pricing and licensing is quite expensive. But for the value the product provides, it seems at par in the market."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is not a cheap product, but I think it is worth every dollar that you pay."
"It is pretty straightforward and based on the sizing. If I compare it with other competitors, it makes sense."
