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

"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."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"We can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution."
"Splunk is one of the top SIEM solutions to work with."
"It is very easy to use and integrate. There are connectors for every technology."
"I'm not sure about the money but in saved time and a new kind of visibility for the system/business process this product has been revolutionary in the working environment."
"It has a low barrier to entry, but it is extremely extensible, allowing it to be tailored to highly specific use cases."
"If you are an enterprise and you need the best service for critical business analysis, Splunk would be one of the best choices."
"Being able to track impossible travel logins and things of that nature is valuable. We can track user logins from various IPs, various countries, and at various times to see if everything adds up."
"It has quite extensive support in terms of integration. If you want to do anything, there are tools for that."
"The solution helped reduce our alert volume."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would help to have historical information."
"The user interface is the main area for improvement."
"The product was difficult to back up the first time."
"The use cases provided by Splunk are a good starting point, but could cover many additional topics to ensure that a smaller or less experienced shop might maximize the value of an ES deployment."
"For on-premise, it's more about optimization. With such a heavy byte scale of data that we are operating on, the search for disparate data sometimes takes about a minute. This is understandable considering the amount of data that we are pumping into it. The only optimization that I recommend is better sharding, when it comes to Splunk, so that data retrieval can be faster."
"Licensing costs can be a barrier for those with limited budgets."
"From the commercial point of view, they have to bring down their costs."
"It'd be really nice if Splunk Enterprise Security had a better and solid configuration guide."
"The user interface is the main area for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"Splunk licensing model might seem expensive but with all the gain in functionalities you will have compared to traditional SIEM solutions I think it’s worth the price."
"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."
"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 think the price could be improved."
"I assume that the pricing is reasonable, because if it was too costly, there are other alternatives."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is priced lower than competitors."
"Splunk should be able to integrate with other product using the free version."
"Pricing is probably its weakest spot. As compared to some competitors, Splunk is really expensive."
