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."
"There are many use cases for Splunk, we commonly use it for log management and analytics."
"The reporting aspect is good and it does what I need it to do."
"Splunk has reduced application downtime by helping identify the point of failure."
"Splunk has a single purpose in life: ingest machine data and help analyze and visualize that data."
"The feature I appreciate the most about Splunk Enterprise Security is the dashboard."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ability to capture the different data streams."
"This is a product that I recommend for anybody who wants and advanced SIEM solutions."
"Splunk Enterprise Security positively impacts our organization and clients mainly through early detections in the security landscape, allowing us to detect vulnerabilities and intrusions much earlier than previously undetected issues."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"The integration could be a bit better. They charge for certain integrations."
"In the next releases, I would like to see more pricing flexibility."
"The AWS add-on is particularly problematic, with most inputs requiring manual writing due to lack of out-of-box functionality."
"Both quality and speed are lacking. Quality-wise, tickets sometimes go in circles, with unnecessary complications and escalations requiring repeated explanations."
"The support that is included with the standard licensing fee is very bad."
"A problem that we had recently had was we licensed it based on how much data you upload to them every day. Something changed in one our applications, and it started generating three to four times as many logs and. So now, we are trying to assemble something with parts of the Splunk API to warn ourselves, then turn it off and throttle it back more. However it would be better if they had something systematically built into the product that if you're getting close to your license, then to shut things down."
"The GUI, now called Mission Control, which serves as issue management or ticket management, falls below what would be considered industry standards."
"Most importantly, Splunk can be outrageously expensive. That is the problem with both Splunk and Sentinel. Their pricing literally explodes based on the amount of data you feed in."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"It's a little bit expensive for a small to medium enterprise."
"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."
"It is expensive. That is why many customers have moved to IBM QRadar. The price is definitely a challenge for customers."
"Licensing is a yearly, one-time cost."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is expensive."
"It is pretty straightforward and based on the sizing. If I compare it with other competitors, it makes sense."
"Splunk's costing is a little more difficult. The pricing method is complicated, and the way that costing is calculated in Splunk is a little more difficult."
"Pricing and licensing is quite expensive. But for the value the product provides, it seems at par in the market."
