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."
"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."
"I like the ease of setting up dashboards on Splunk. They're easy to create, manage, alter, and share. You can fine-tune them any way you see fit."
"The solution is very fast and succinct."
"It has quite extensive support in terms of integration, and if you want to do anything, there are tools for that."
"Splunk is a very good platform for analytics and cybersecurity; we use it very extensively, and it is very easy to use, very stable, and scalable."
"Alerts when a server is malfunctioning, monitors external attacks, and takes action to stop spreading viruses."
"It helps streamline troubleshooting and log analysis."
"Splunk provides a free version so you can test it before purchasing."
"We evaluated several solutions and selected Splunk due to the functionality and cost."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would help to have historical information."
"It works as intended for us, and we are getting everything that we need out of it. If anything, its initial setup can be improved a bit."
"Search head clustering is often temperamental in its current state and should be improved, replaced by something better, or be reverted to search head pooling."
"Custom visualizations are real hard. While the default visualizations are good, creating enhanced visualizations are complex."
"One main change I would suggest is related to the incident board: when an incident is resolved, it should not appear on the incident board."
"Splunk ES could have more pre-built integrations and rules. The detection is fairly accurate, but it depends on the rules you create. Splunk's out-of-the-box configuration isn't that useful."
"Endpoint access is the only issue I can think to mention, even though the endpoint access we have with Cisco is fine."
"Enterprise security: Splunk must work on clarifying the solution to customers and explain how to gain more from it."
"It would be nice if Splunk reduced the cost of training. Their training sessions are way too costly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"Regarding the product's pricing, I think it has always been difficult to have a conversation with Splunk."
"Splunk Enterprise Security's pricing is based on data volume, which generally suits large enterprises."
"Splunk can be an expensive solution. It all depends on how we configure the alerts and the events from the endpoints. You can save some money if you do that correctly. If not, it becomes an expensive solution."
"Pricing is probably its weakest spot. As compared to some competitors, Splunk is really expensive."
"Splunk is really expensive compared to all the other tools on the market, including Microsoft Sentinel."
"The price is comparable."
"Price-wise, if you compare QRadar to Splunk for SIEM functionality then they are in the same range but when you integrate SOAR with these solutions, Splunk takes the lead and is more competitive."
"Its pricing model can be improved."
