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."
"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."
"Can ingest data from various data sources, is very useful for organizations who are attempting to meet compliance requirements, and is able to fully configure and integrate various solutions into one tool and provide actionable results."
"It's a great investment, especially if you want to strengthen your security stance."
"Splunk has facilitated the correlation of information security logs to look for incidents which could cause damage to the company's infrastructure, as well as financial losses from leaks."
"We have majorly utilized Splunk Enterprise Security in SIEM and SOAR use cases, and the product is top-notch, with no problems."
"I like the ease with which dashboards can be created."
"Splunk Enterprise Security scales well with the growing needs of our company."
"My customer was integrated with many third-party credentials and other threat sources as well. The integration part was seamless and easy. The rates for allocating valuable information and IOCs from different sources are also good."
"What I like the most about Splunk Enterprise Security is the flexibility and customization it offers, as you can create dashboards, write custom SPL queries, and design detections exactly as per your environment while leveraging strong correlation capabilities and visualizing everything in a single place, which makes analysis easier and far better than other solutions."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"I have not seen ROI with Splunk Enterprise Security."
"The problem with the product is that the price of Splunk is very high."
"I would like to see the asset and identity lookups be more automatic and less manual."
"Some additional features that should be included in the next release of Splunk Enterprise Security are an integrated Attack Range, not as a separate solution, providing a way to test the rules in the production environment."
"The historical data extraction needs improvement. I would like the capability of taking data and having it trend longer."
"The initial setup is complex, but this is necessary. We needed to take into consideration how to direct log files from thousands of machines to Splunk, and how to ingest those files."
"Splunk can be an expensive solution. Technical support could be improved as well."
"Adding custom visualization in Splunk has been improved over the years but can still be made better by integrating more and more JavaScript visualization sources."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"It can be expensive, especially the licensing costs. However, there is added value in what it can do, not just log aggregation."
"Splunk differs from other SIEM solutions by using a gigabyte-based pricing model, rather than the agent-based licenses common with its competitors."
"The price of Splunk is reasonable."
"Splunk can be expensive, as its licensing is based on the daily data ingestion volume."
"As a team, we prefer the old pricing model with a perpetual license. We are still evaluating the whole subscription-based model."
"The pricing can be better. We are already considering Elastic because Splunk is too expensive. You have to pay based on per-day ingestion. There should be a more flexible model for the use cases where one day you have a huge amount, and on other days, it is quite less."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is not a cheap product, but I think it is worth every dollar that you pay."
"Splunk licensing model might seem expensive but with all the gain in functionalities you will have compared to traditional SIEM solutions I think it’s worth the price."
