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."
"The Splunk user community and forum are most valuable."
"The ability to identify risks as they come in is quite good."
"Splunk has provided a venue for us to determine student engagement during COVID, for which we didn't really have any other way except by looking at data that we captured off of our student systems and our authentication servers to see who's logging in, and who's logging out, and for how long they've been logged in."
"We evaluated several solutions and selected Splunk due to the functionality and cost."
"The most valuable features include agility and Splunk Enterprise Security's ability to quickly search for alerted items, as well as the capacity to create custom alerts using the SQL language employed by Splunk."
"We use the solution as a log collector, and to analyze and provide alerts from the IT instructor."
"Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) has very good capability of storing, analyzing, and searching compared to other tools."
"The dashboard and reporting are very good... It provides very good visibility in a hybrid cloud environment, and you can build custom utilization APIs using Splunk."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would help to have historical information."
"I love the solution, but I would like to see more accessibility to the machine-learning capabilities that are sprinkled around Splunk."
"Splunk Enterprise Security would benefit from a more robust rule engine to reduce false positives."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can be improved by having more focus on the data health monitoring aspect, which will definitely be helpful."
"Splunk is more expensive than other solutions."
"It needs to improve the way to install third-party apps and enable installation without logging into splunk.com."
"Splunk Enterprise Security has not helped reduce our alert volume."
"While there aren't any major areas where the solution has to be improved, there are certain integrations that are still not available. I would specifically like to see legacy applications integrated."
"Because the licensing model is very complicated to understand, it would be better to start with another product that provides a better licensing model."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"Our ROI is high."
"It is a pretty high cost solution, but if your organization has the funds, it can bring many benefits."
"I am not personally involved with the pricing of the solution."
"From what I have seen so far, Splunk has multiple cost models. The one that we are using is pretty good when it comes to ingesting data into the environment. It has worked out pretty well."
"Pricing can be a limiting factor. You have to continuously tune what you are bringing in and make sure what you bring in is of value."
"Pricing is probably its weakest spot. As compared to some competitors, Splunk is really expensive."
"The pricing depends on the bandwidth of an organization and is good compared to some SIEM tools. IBM, for example, is quite costly. But Microsoft Sentinel is notably cheaper."
"The pricing is a little bit on the higher side, but looking at what Splunk provides us, it is reasonable."
