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."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"INETCO offers monitoring that helps the customer to have a quick way to detect their problems."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk is security information and event management (SIEM), and the solution is easy to use, has useful reports, and a good interface."
"The site is constantly up, and it's been really easy to adjust the data."
"Splunk RBA or risk-based alerting definitely made our lives a lot easier; we went from hundreds of alerts having to be triaged a day, that generally could be false positives or just noise, and bubble them into one overall alert that we can look at on a per-day basis and see what's rising to the top and respond faster, have a higher rate of true positives and find evil a lot quicker."
"I am satisfied with the support."
"It follows MITRE ATT&CK and Cyber Kill Chain frameworks. There are certain notable events for which we can configure our security posture."
"The performance is very good; it's something that customers are always looking for, and the product offers good stability with no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze, making it reliable."
"The initial setup is really straightforward; it's one of the easiest installations."
"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."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would help to have historical information."
"The complexity could be worked on so that it's even easier and faster."
"They could offer pre-built search queries for everyday use cases like brute force attacks, DDoS attacks, and other security threats."
"The GUI can be improved. Splunk has always suffered from having a kind of goofy UI, it needs some updating."
"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 initial setup of Splunk is complex. It requires a lot of equipment and uploads."
"To improve Splunk Enterprise Security, I would suggest allowing third-party SOAR solutions to work with it."
"The Web Application Firewall will send you too much information because it's more dedicated to security than a normal firewall."
"Splunk can improve regex/asset analysis as we do not want to crawl until it is done."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"The pricing is a little bit on the higher side, but looking at what Splunk provides us, it is reasonable."
"It's definitely worth it."
"Splunk can be expensive, as its licensing is based on the daily data ingestion volume."
"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 are quite high compared to other tools or SIEM tools, but the features justify it."
"Splunk is expensive based on our current requirements, but it's obviously worth what we pay."
"Although Splunk is an expensive product, it is designed to be utilized across your organization in order to maximize your ROI and lower your TCO."
"Splunk can be an expensive solution. It all depends on how we configure the alerts and the events from the endpoints. You can save some money if you do that correctly. If not, it becomes an expensive solution."
