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."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"It has a drag-and-drop interface, so you don't need to know SQL or Java to construct a query on Splunk. The resolution time is about the same, but it took longer to discover the issue with ArcSight. Our previous solution took about an hour or more, but Splunk can do it within a few minutes or an hour at most."
"It is a very well-organized solution, more user-friendly than ArcSight and QRadar, where I can search and do whatever I need in terms of dashboards, reports, etc., making it the best tool if you have a complex environment or if data ingestion is too huge."
"It is a great product overall."
"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."
"Splunk simplifies the information, and it gives you charts and different means of seeing that information, making it easily understandable for people."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the dashboard, which allows us to see everything on the same page and provides easy visibility into problems."
"The query functionality is very easy to use and fast to retrieve logs in comparison to other SIEM solutions."
"The ability to manage large amounts of generated data and to protect all devices from unauthorized use are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would help to have historical information."
"I would evaluate customer service and technical support as frustrating at times."
"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."
"Certain sections of the developer documentation could use some updating and clarification."
"Splunk has a steeper learning curve, making it feel less user-friendly."
"We've sometimes faced issues with upgrades. The incident review dashboard sometimes breaks after updates. When we add a space or something in the description or anywhere in the SQL, the drill-down value may be reset with a blank value. Before rolling out any software, they should test it thoroughly and ensure clients won't have issues with the upgraded version. It should be compatible with all or most of the apps. All major issues must be addressed before rolling out the upgrade."
"Most of my interaction is with the user community, which is how Splunk wants it. When I need help, that community is very hit or miss."
"There is a definite learning curve to starting out."
"Licensing costs can be a barrier for those with limited budgets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"The price of Splunk is reasonable."
"Licensing is a yearly, one-time cost."
"I think we recently switched to the SVC pricing compared to the ingest pricing."
"The pricing is based on the volume of data fed into it, which can lead to substantial costs. This pricing model is complex and unpredictable, making cost management difficult."
"Splunk is priced higher than other solutions."
"It's a little bit expensive for a small to medium enterprise."
"Pricing is pretty fair."
"The price of Splunk Enterprise Security is reasonable, falling somewhere in the middle range."
