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.

Pros

"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."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"The stability and reliability of Splunk Enterprise Security is outstanding. It's a software and product that anybody can really pick up and use."
"Speeds up root cause analysis and can help identify issues that your organization never realized were occurring."
"It's very flexible, reports are made quickly, and unlike other tools, it caters to all kinds of technical information on the front very easily so you can pull up the reports very easily, take action, and notify stakeholders."
"Visualizations are the best way to understand deviation techniques from the norm."
"From a visibility perspective, the solution has significantly improved our organization by providing a single platform to visualize our entire IT landscape."
"The integration and plugin availability are nice; the AI module is also great."
"The solution has proven to be quite stable."
"The features of Splunk Enterprise Security that I find most valuable are the correlation and correlation data."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would help to have historical information."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can be improved with more ease of configuration. It is pretty straightforward to get it started, however, to really check if my data is all available and how to activate the right use case and the right correlations is still sometimes a hassle."
"Delays in responses from the technical team can pose challenges for both vendors and clients, especially considering that Splunk applications and machine solutions are critical assets."
"Make it easier to include roles and user controls, as it is horrible now."
"The correlation of events is the most significant challenge I face when using Splunk Enterprise Security for advanced threat detection."
"When it comes to out of the box use cases, I feel the solution to be too slow."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can be improved mainly from the user interface regarding the visualizations. They are working on it, yet there are only five to ten very basic visualizations."
"It needs to improve the way to install third-party apps and enable installation without logging into splunk.com."
"The GUI could be improved to include some of the capabilities that other BI solutions have. The layout is a little restrictive where you can’t resize all the panels to exactly how you would like them without tweaking some XML code."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"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."
"The Splunk licensing is high."
"The price of Splunk is too high for our market."
"It would be nice if the pricing were cheaper. However, we did purchase it."
"I remember Splunk being relatively affordable. Kibana was more reasonable, but you get more with Splunk. If I was suggesting something, I would probably suggest Splunk because it is better to pay a little bit more and get a lot more."
"The pricing model is based on the number of gigabytes that you ingest into the Splunk system. So it can be an expensive solution."
"This solution is costly. Splunk is obviously a great product, but you should only choose this product if you need all the features provided. Otherwise, if you don't need all the features to meet your requirements, there are probably other products that will be more cost-effective. It's cost versus the functionality requirement."
"Splunk is really expensive compared to all the other tools on the market, including Microsoft Sentinel."
