The features I appreciate the most about Splunk Observability Cloud are the ServiceNow integration feature, which is very seamless, and that's probably my favorite since ServiceNow is big in the observability industry. Being able to seamlessly create those incidents is the biggest plus. Without that, we probably wouldn't be using Splunk. Just alerting with Splunk Observability Cloud provides significant benefits for my organization, particularly since this is a food and manufacturing company. Alerting the business side before the customer reports an issue helps us to be one step ahead, which is a big feature. Dashboards for the IT executives are also beneficial since they might not be as technical yet can easily read a dashboard. The ability to create something easily interpretable, using color coding and heat maps, allows directors to see value in it. The ability to enrich data with custom metrics in Splunk Observability Cloud has significantly impacted our integrations and app team, the biggest users of Splunk in our environment. The visibility provided and the remediation they gain from reading events have led to increased log ingestion, which is a good problem to have. They can confidently rely on Splunk for monitoring app creations, APIs, and more.
