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

"It provides real-time information alerts."
"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."
"This can help customers who already have a lot of monitoring providers consolidate what they have."
"The dashboard and reporting are very good... It provides very good visibility in a hybrid cloud environment, and you can build custom utilization APIs using Splunk."
"Splunk Enterprise Security has positively impacted my organization greatly; without it, I don't even know how we had a SOC previously."
"The ability to analyze huge amounts of sales data and accurate prediction of sales forecasting is the most valuable feature."
"The fact that Splunk is a platform and not just a SIEM solution is a key benefit."
"Splunk is user-friendly. We can easily customize the monitoring script."
"Easy to deploy and simple to use."
"Splunk may be more costly upfront, but in the long run, it saves on time and man-hours."
"It's extremely scalable, it's a very robust solution and certainly has the capability of handling far bigger data requirements than a lot of the other tools."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"Its performance can be better. Sometimes, it takes longer when we do queries."
"They can definitely do better from a technical point of view. We would expect the technical support people onsite to be subject-matter experts of Splunk."
"The initial setup of Splunk is complex. It requires a lot of equipment and uploads."
"I have noticed with a lot of clients that the instances in the cloud have been really slow."
"I find the graphical options really limited and you don't have enough control over how to display the data that you want to see."
"Splunk Enterprise Security does throw some false positives. It, as anything, needs some tuning."
"Although the technical support is adequate, there is still room for improvement."
"The only thing which can be improved is that they are too subjective on whom their Splunk4Good initiative can be applied. They market it as you only need to be a nonprofit, but there is more to it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"Splunk has always been on the expensive side."
"The price of Splunk Enterprise Security is reasonable, falling somewhere in the middle range."
"The pricing is very complicated, and it is very pricey. You do require a lot of different licenses in order to get a comprehensive solution that is not just the SIEM solution."
"The solution is a little expensive."
"We had a yearly subscription."
"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."
"I would highly recommend anyone evaluating this option to download the free trial which allows for the ingestion of 500MB of data per day in order to get a feel for what Splunk does at its core. It will get pricey once your ingestion rates start to sky rocket, but I would consider it expensive given the amount of information that it allows you to analyze and react on straight out-of-the-box."
"The tool's pricing model is great. You can choose between workloads or volume."
