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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides real-time information alerts."
"We can have a 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."
"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"We evaluated several solutions and selected Splunk due to the functionality and cost."
"The data analysis part is good in Splunk, which is something that I like the most, and it is also quite easy to use, with dashboards, visualizations, and analytics that are good."
"It is a one stop shop as a full monitoring and alerting solution for operations and application analysis for most of our back-end systems."
"It helps streamline troubleshooting and log analysis."
"The most valuable feature is that it's very good for log aggregation."
"Manually, it used to take us a whole day to do strong monitoring, now it takes a maximum of two hours because of this product."
"The most valuable features are how stable and easy to use Splunk is."
"I appreciate the Identity and Assets framework the most, as well as the threat analysis framework."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"Right now, it is too easy for a user to write a query, run it, make it available in polling mode (real-time mode), and bring down the server."
"I want Splunk Enterprise Security to release more AI and machine learning features in the future."
"The pricing of Splunk Enterprise Security is not very affordable, and I have seen many companies planning to leave because of cost concerns."
"The price is a significant concern. It is expensive and is designed for enterprise companies, not for small or medium-sized companies."
"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."
"In the next releases, I would like to see more pricing flexibility."
"Pricing is certainly an area that could use improvement. While some vendors may offer lower prices, the value we receive here truly sets this solution apart."
"Splunk could have more built-in use case presets that customers can build on and customize."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"It is possible to use a developer's license, which is up to 10GB per day of volume traffic, which is usually enough for most use cases."
"The pricing can be better. We are already considering Elastic because Splunk is too expensive. You have to pay based on per-day ingestion. There should be a more flexible model for the use cases where one day you have a huge amount, and on other days, it is quite less."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is not a cheap product, but I think it is worth every dollar that you pay."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is expensive. I would rate the cost an eight out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"The price of this solution is expensive. However, it has great features. If you want a great solution you need to pay a price matching the features."
"I am fine with the licensing, but in terms of the cost, it is expensive for the data that we have. We have an open discussion with our account rep about this."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is an expensive solution."
"Splunk is not a cheap solution and the license is billed annually."
