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."
"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to look at threats and link them to the MITRE ATT&CK framework."
"Splunk has a wide range of features that customers use to find and analyze all kinds of logs."
"The risk-based alerting is excellent."
"If properly built, I'm very impressed with the stability of Splunk ES."
"The most valuable features of the solution are it is straightforward to use and the documentation is good for finding out how to get the data you are looking for."
"The solution is very fast and succinct."
"The Splunk user community and forum are most valuable."
"It's very flexible. If you look from the cloud implementation it is there. Reports are made quickly. Unlike other tools, it caters to all kinds of technical information on the front very easily. There's no need to put in any technical information. You can pull on the reports very easily, take action, and notify stakeholders."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would help to have historical information."
"Splunk Enterprise Security can be improved with more ease of configuration."
"Its user interface for everything other than the charts can be improved."
"The huge price increases that have been experienced over the last couple of years do not appear to be justified by new features or items in general."
"The configuration could be better."
"The GUI can be improved to include some of the capabilities that other BI solutions have."
"The user access control could be much more granular, so that the admins can control r/w/x access for specific features of the product like dashboards, etc."
"Pricing is one factor that hurts everybody on the market; the client, the reseller, everybody that touches it. Only Splunk makes money."
"I do not have any pain points for Splunk Enterprise Security. I am still trying to learn it, but there can be more information on the education side for Splunk Enterprise Security. It would be nice if the certification path was more specific to what I use instead of being so broad."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"I believe there is room for improvement in reducing costs, particularly in the financial aspect, as Splunk tends to be pricier compared to other options."
"The tool's licensing is good and we haven't received any complaints from the team handling it."
"It can be cost-prohibitive when you start to scale and have terabytes of data. Its cost model is based on how much data it processes a day. If they're able to create scaled-down niche or custom package offerings, it may help with the cost. Instead of the full-blown features, if they can narrow the scope where it can only be used for a specific purpose, it would kind of create that market for the product, and it may help with the costing. When you start using it as a central aggregator and you're pumping tons of logs at it, pretty soon, you'll start hitting your cap on what it can process a day. Once you've got that, you're kind of defeating the purpose because you're going to have to scale back."
"While licensing can be a concern, there are ways to reduce the licensing costs including filtering some events."
"The Splunk Enterprise Security license is expensive."
"Splunk Enterprise Security's pricing is based on data volume, which generally suits large enterprises."
"We had a yearly subscription."
"I think that most of the log analytics solutions are expensive and I'm not sure if it's worth it."
