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."
"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 can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution."
"It's great for finding anonymous threats."
"The indexing and data collection are valuable."
"Splunk Enterprise Security positively impacts our organization and clients mainly through early detections in the security landscape, allowing us to detect vulnerabilities and intrusions much earlier than previously undetected issues."
"The solution's most valuable features are the granularity and analysis of the logs."
"The stability of Splunk Enterprise Security is very impressive; it is a very stable product."
"The best part of Splunk Enterprise Security is its customizable settings."
"Over the course of using Splunk Enterprise Security, it has helped us grow our business and attract more clients due to its low mean time to respond and various analytic engines that help us address threats daily, resulting in positive customer feedback and satisfaction."
"The benefits my company has seen from the use of Splunk Enterprise Security revolve around the speed of detection it offers."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"Splunk Enterprise Security has not helped improve our organization's business resilience since resilience means the ability to recover from a disaster, and we are not using it in that capacity at all."
"In terms of training. I find that some things about Splunk aren't well-explained. I see features and then go to the website but don't find good explanations."
"We'd like to have the number of devices covered under the license to be increased."
"I have not seen ROI with Splunk Enterprise Security."
"The optimization of filters, which is easily achievable in software like Tableau, is not as straightforward in Splunk XML."
"Technical support is mediocre. Splunk is struggling to deliver a consistently exceptional support experience."
"The product's price may be an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The documentation is in definite need of improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"Unlike other security tools, Splunk provides a fixed amount of gigabytes per day, and we are required to pay for any additional usage beyond that limit, in addition to our monthly cost."
"Splunk differs from other SIEM solutions by using a gigabyte-based pricing model, rather than the agent-based licenses common with its competitors."
"The pricing of Splunk Enterprise Security is somewhat high, but comparing it with its benefits, it's acceptable. It depends on the type of business."
"Most people share the same thought that the ingestion rates can get pretty pricey. There is a lot of work we do to curate the data that we send to Splunk so that it is not too noisy or too expensive."
"Setup cost is cheap: It is free, it is user-friendly, and it is fast."
"Expensive compared to other options."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is not at all cost-friendly to be deployed in very small enterprises like start-ups."
"ROI is estimated at saving my team roughly 10 to 12 man hours per week in troubleshooting for our company as well as what our profits had been from our services of installing, configuring, and supporting other clients with the product."
