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

"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."
"The most valuable feature is the log aggregation, being able to scan through all of the logs."
"The flexibility of the search capability is most valuable, and you can use it for more than just a basic log aggregator, which makes it powerful in that regard."
"The solution has made us more secure."
"There are quite a lot of things that we find useful; Splunk agents are useful and good, and its UI is quite impressive."
"Before Splunk, we used Kibana and Elasticsearch; sometimes, with them, logs wouldn't even be there, so Splunk being there and working does a lot."
"This solution helps us increase our productivity."
"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."
"We previously used ArcSight; Splunk is at another level, as it is easier, more stable, and faster."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"Technical support services are lacking, especially after you buy the product."
"Regarding pricing, Splunk Enterprise Security is on the higher side in terms of cost. It is more suitable for enterprises that can fully utilize its capabilities, and smaller organizations might find it expensive, especially when dealing with large volumes of data and licensing models."
"I've noticed that onboarding data from various multi-cloud sources and diverse products, such as security network devices, can be challenging."
"Cost is something which is a major factor."
"VMware and security device integration looks a bit complex."
"It is important to make sure that everything is built off of the threat models and all the underlying items within Splunk."
"The glass table feature does not perform as expected."
"Its deployment is difficult. I remember when I first started learning, I faced several challenges, especially when deploying VMware in a virtual environment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"As a team, we prefer the old pricing model with a perpetual license. We are still evaluating the whole subscription-based model."
"I think we recently switched to the SVC pricing compared to the ingest pricing."
"Unlike other security tools, Splunk provides a fixed amount of gigabytes per day, and we are required to pay for any additional usage beyond that limit, in addition to our monthly cost."
"Luckily, we come under a large federal agency, and before the pandemic, they signed a large enterprise license agreement. It worked out great and to our advantage because we are a small organization. We got a 300 gig license, and we just did not have the buying power to be able to get products cheaply. Because we all partnered together under the agency umbrella, we were able to get Splunk Enterprise Security, UBA, and ITSI for cheap. This was good considering the fact that some of these premium apps require a minimum number of users, and we do not have the number of people needed to even justify buying it."
"It can be tough to determine if you are getting all of the value out of your investment at times."
"Splunk Enterprise Security's pricing is pretty competitive."
"It is economical than other solutions."
"Splunk is expensive based on our current requirements, but it's obviously worth what we pay."
