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."
"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."
"We can have a real-time detection for the root cause of problems, minimizing time to resolution."
"It has a rapid response search environment in the event of an incident."
"Splunk Enterprise Security has positively impacted our organization by helping to formalize our SOC program, enabling us to fundamentally respond to alerts as well as create detections around security events, and providing a single source of truth for our analysts to work out of instead of having multiple different platforms."
"What I really like is that even if you have already collected the data, you can extract fields and can build searches."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is website activity monitoring."
"Splunk Enterprise Security comes with 300 pre-deployed use cases that can be easily customized to meet the specific needs of our organization, without the need to purchase additional tools."
"The features of Splunk Enterprise Security that I have found most valuable include the risk-based score and UBA/UEBA, user behavior analytics, or user and entity behavior analytics."
"The technical support team at Splunk is highly responsive and knowledgeable."
"From using Splunk Enterprise Security, I have already seen benefits such as tracking alert fatigue in my team, especially with the SOC Operations dashboard and the Executive Dashboard."
 

Cons

"It would help to have historical information."
"It would be good if the solution had some kind of copilot to automate or help write correlation searches."
"I've noticed that onboarding data from various multi-cloud sources and diverse products, such as security network devices, can be challenging."
"They should make data onboarding easier."
"To improve Splunk Enterprise Security, I would suggest allowing third-party SOAR solutions to work with it."
"To improve Splunk Enterprise Security, I suggest incorporating more AI features for faster remediation and enhanced responses, allowing users to build more correlation searches quickly."
"Splunk Enterprise Security should provide a better and richer integration."
"It is a good product, but the Achilles heel for a lot of organizations is the cost model for it because it gets expensive. That's because the model is based on how much data it processes a day, which can be prohibitive, especially if you have a lot of data. A lot of customers may not be ready for the sticker shock on how to fully leverage the product. I realized that the reason for that is that when it was originally designed, it was kind of like a big data modeling application. If they want to have a bigger customer base, they can come out with subsets of their product that are focused on specific things and have different pricing models. It may help with the cost."
"While Splunk Enterprise Security is powerful, it presents significant complexity for users, as it's not particularly user-friendly for beginners."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers can save costs (time and money) by integrating with this tool."
"It is not cheap."
"Splunk's cost is very high. They need to review the pricing. They have to go back and totally readdress the market."
"The pricing of Splunk Enterprise Security is somewhat high, but comparing it with its benefits, it's acceptable. It depends on the type of business."
"Most people share the same thought that the ingestion rates can get pretty pricey. There is a lot of work we do to curate the data that we send to Splunk so that it is not too noisy or too expensive."
"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."
"It's definitely worth it."
"Splunk is not free."
"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."
