Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category.""The most valuable feature of Apache Superset is the easy way to configure dashboards as reports or analyses and it's easy to use and intuitive. Users do not need a lot of training to use the solution.""The solution supports a rich set of charts and enables users to create their own dashboards.""The no-code interface is the most valuable as it allows us to operate without constant support from the data engineering team, fostering a self-service environment."

More Apache Superset Pros →

"Everything is maintained by the Splunk support team. Users do not have to maintain any physical servers. They do not have to maintain indexes and searches. It reduces a lot of work on the user side.""The most valuable feature is we don't have to deal with any back-end server maintenance because the solution is cloud-based.""I like the Cloud monitoring console feature.""We only buy the services we need. We don't have to pay for other things we don't.""The most valuable feature of Splunk Cloud Platform is the alerting feature.""I can trace an event back to its root cause. I can find the root cause instead of just looking at the symptoms across different things.""The most valuable feature of Splunk Cloud Platform is its flexibility and readiness because it's already prebuilt, and everything is click-to-go.""We haven't had any limitations or problems connecting to our network devices."

Cons
"Automation in terms of APIs for creating roles, and giving privileges to the user can be improved.""Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities.""Dynamic dashboarding could improve to enable smooth navigation when transitioning from a higher to a lower view, allowing for easy accessibility.""The platform's reporting feature needs enhancement."

More Apache Superset Cons →

"The dashboards should be easier to customize.""Every time they launch new versions, we experience a few bugs. The most recent version had a couple of bugs in the databases. We contacted the vendor and got assistance solving these bugs, so the environment is more stable.""There can be more modules and more integration with other areas in the cloud and on-prem. I am not sure whether it includes network devices and things like that.""The training models can only be accessed for 30 days, even if it is paid training.""From an enterprise standpoint, we are more limited in terms of what data we can export and how we can present it.""The Splunk interface is on-premises, so we have limited access to Splunk Cloud. Splunk support is not so good on Splunk Cloud. The Splunk side of the Splunk Cloud should also be more customizable. Integrating Splunk UBA, Splunk Phantom, and Splunk Cloud is also a bit difficult.""The only disadvantage of Splunk Cloud compared to Splunk Enterprise Security is that you only have two options for long-term storage: AWS S3 Buckets and GCP.""Support is the bigger issue when we have a problem. When we need their help, it takes weeks or months to actually get resolved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The price of Apache Superset is less than some of its competitors."
  • "Apache Superset has a three-year licensing model."
  • "Apache Superset is open-source and free."
  • More Apache Superset Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The licensing is based on the amount of data that we send to the cloud on a daily basis."
  • "The price is something that people complain about."
  • "The licensing costs depend on the state of your environment and the fees are paid on a monthly basis."
  • "The pricing model makes this an expensive solution."
  • "There are additional features that you would need to purchase depending on your use case."
  • "The cost of using Splunk Cloud Platform is high, but the value it provides is worth the investment."
  • "I am familiar with the pricing and licensing model a little bit. I am not sure about the particulars of the actual price that we have, but I do like the idea of going towards a more CPU-based approach rather than the ingest approach because it allows us the ability to ingest more data if we need it."
  • "It is a touchy subject because we are locked into it. That goes back to the rehydrating data. We cannot have the retention that we want to store for legal and compliance purposes because that is seven years' worth of data for some of the indexes, so we ship them off into S3 buckets and install them there, at which point they are invisible to Splunk, so we have to rehydrate them, but we cannot rehydrate those pockets into Splunk Cloud. We have to rehydrate them into a self-hosted version of Splunk, which can take days to set up and get going. I would not call Splunk's licensing and pricing predatory, but they have made it very difficult to maintain the independence of your own data."
