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.
ROBERT-CHRISTIAN - PeerSpot reviewer
Has many predefined correlation rules and is brilliant for investigation and log analysis
It is very complicated to write your own correlation rules without the help of Splunk support. What Splunk could do better is to create an API to the standard SIEM tools, such as Microsoft Sentinel. The idea would be to make it less painful. In ELK Stack, Kibana is the query language with which you can search log files. I believe Splunk has also a query language in which they search their log files, but once you have identified the log file that you want to use for further security correlation, you want to very quickly transport that into your SIEM tool, such as Microsoft Sentinel. That is something that Splunk could make a little bit less painful because it is a lot of effort to find that log file and forward it. An API with Microsoft Sentinel or a similar SIEM tool would be a good idea.

Pros

"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"We can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution."
"We did not encounter any issues with scalability. It is almost seamless to add new index (storage) or search (used to analyze the data) nodes to the cluster."
"What I really like is that even if you have already collected the data, you can extract fields and can build searches."
"The log aggregation is great."
"The technical support has been very good. They are very responsive and have been helpful."
"If I need to integrate devices for logs, it is easier with Splunk. We can integrate different applications, network devices, and databases. It is also very rich in documents. It is the best."
"It gives me notifications of notable events."
"What is nice about the solution is that it makes it easy to build the queries, search for the events and then do analysis."
"Splunk is a user-friendly solution."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"In the next release, they should include machine learning-based rules that would streamline the process of finding anomalies."
"It needs a better way to export dynamic views without requiring a ton of code and user/pw."
"When we do a rollout from the server or host or anything, we'd like to see more automation. It would save us time."
"This is not really a monitoring solution."
"We had some connections issues with the solution at the beginning."
"It's difficult to set up initially, and their billing model is also a bit complicated."
"My company could benefit from doing more Splunk training with Splunk consultants teaching us how to use it."
"They can incorporate the SOAR solution within the actual product so that we do not require two different products, two different installations, and two different pricing methods. In regards to UBA, I am familiar with the UBA that existed two years ago. I am not updated about it today, but two years ago, UBA required such an amount of data that from a cost perspective, it was not worth it. When you compare it to what you get out of the box with Microsoft Sentinel without additional costs, there is no match."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"The license for Splunk Enterprise Security is expensive."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is expensive but the solution is equipped with a lot of features."
"The pricing of Splunk Enterprise Security is high."
"Splunk has always been on the expensive side."
"I think the price could be improved."
"The Splunk Enterprise Security license is expensive."
"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."
"While Splunk is more expensive than other solutions, we would still choose it because of its capabilities."
