Cons
"There are limitations with Splunk not detecting all user activity, especially on mainframes and network devices.""The threat detection system has 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.""When you get into large amounts of data, Splunk can get pretty slow. This is the same on-premise or AWS, it doesn't matter. The way that they handle large data sets could be improved.""While Splunkbase (the app repository) has a lot of great content, some apps are terribly old and could stand to be updated or purged.""Splunk could add more ways to manage archiving and storage. There isn't a web interface. You can do this on the SaaS version, but the on-premise platform doesn't have this option. It has other things but no option for remote NAS. I would like to have a personal web interface where I can specify how long logs should be stored. To have this readily available on the web, you need to adjust some settings on the backend. That is tricky.""In terms of the interface, it could include some improvements for the look and feel.""The upgrading process could be smoother."
