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

"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."
"We can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution."
"I would recommend Splunk to any company: small, medium, and large."
"You can check up on security from the dashboards."
"Alerts when a server is malfunctioning, monitors external attacks, and takes action to stop spreading viruses."
"The Splunk queries are valuable."
"Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) has very good capability of storing, analyzing, and searching compared to other tools."
"It allows the centralization of data and makes possible new sorts of correlations that were previously impossible using traditional SIEMs such as ArcSight or QRadar."
"Searches logs from all devices and gives valuable information to the organisation, so it can drill down on all reports and security threats."
"The advantages of Splunk over its competitors include the unified platform which includes everything from security to logging."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"Splunk Enterprise Security has not helped reduce our alert volume."
"My organization does not completely utilize risk-based alerting in Splunk Enterprise Security as it's not fully mature."
"Improving the infrastructure behind Splunk Enterprise Security is vital—enhanced cores, CPUs, and memory should be prioritized to support better processing power. When we execute heavy, resource-intensive queries over long periods, the performance dips."
"The most significant challenges I face when using Splunk Enterprise Security for advanced threat detection include not having enough time to be in it, the resources and people to also be in there, and trying to configure it and teach people how to use it. A lack of resources prevents us from giving it the attention it needs."
"The presence of multiple layers creates a significant challenge for monitoring across cloud environments."
"The threat detection library needs to increase the frequency at which the playbooks are updated."
"The Splunk platform is not unified. We have all of these different tools and they feel a bit disjointed."
"There is a free version, but it is insufficient for training and learning because it is a little bit difficult to work with, especially if you are a beginner."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"This product could use better pricing in general."
"Splunk is a bit pricier, but the benefits and ROI are huge."
"The pricing modules could be improved."
"I think we recently switched to the SVC pricing compared to the ingest pricing."
"It is not cheap."
"Pricing is pretty fair."
"I think the price could be improved."
"The pricing seems good relative to the other vendors that we have had here. However, they need to find ways to be more flexible with the licensing and be able to deal with situations where we start generating more logs. Maybe having some controls in the Splunk interface to turn it off, so we don't have to change anything in our application."
