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."
"It provides real-time information alerts."
"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"Splunk gives my clients the ability to bring multiple, disparate types of data together, then correlate and report on them."
"Recently, Splunk upgraded to version 9.0.02, which includes excellent data dashboards and visualization effects."
"We are satisfied with Splunk Enterprise Security, and it comes with a wide number of out-of-the-box applications which do help us to fix the problems."
"Splunk has saved our organization time by resolving problems in a quicker timeframe."
"Summing up everything from a SIEM and security point of view, I think Splunk is by far the best product that I have been using since my work experience."
"It is easy to use in any environment."
"This is a straightforward solution, easy to configure."
"With Splunk, we got more insights out of our data as it includes machine and secure data."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"I would like to see the asset and identity lookups be more automatic and less manual."
"By comparison, I feel QRadar to be better than Splunk Cloud, since it comes with Watson."
"Splunk solutions are much more expensive than others."
"The optimization of filters, which is easily achievable in software like Tableau, is not as straightforward in Splunk XML."
"One main change I would suggest is related to the incident board: when an incident is resolved, it should not appear on the incident board. It's just a rare occurrence that we open up the incident."
"The price is a significant concern. It is expensive and is designed for enterprise companies, not for small or medium-sized companies."
"There is a learning curve in order to start using machine learning. We have been trying to do it for three years, and we have not managed anything. It is too complex."
"Currently, in my opinion, Splunk Enterprise Security is good. However, Splunk has an ingest processor that could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is an expensive solution."
"Expensive compared to other options."
"As a team, we prefer the old pricing model with a perpetual license. We are still evaluating the whole subscription-based model."
"In terms of pricing, I believe Splunk is unreasonably costly for the majority of mid and small-sized companies."
"Splunk is a bit pricier, but the benefits and ROI are huge."
"The tool's pricing model is great. You can choose between workloads or 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."
"Splunk is costly but it’s worth it due to the high-end features."
