"We can present to our management in real time the security of the batch management for the PCs, security regarding the network equipment. We're currently working in the Azure Cloud project, so we can send any logs from the cloud to Splunk. We can monitor them and we can present to the managers and customers. It's a very good solution for reporting. We use Splunk for reporting and monitoring of any solution in the company.""It helps streamline troubleshooting and log analysis.""The initial setup is pretty straightforward.""Without Splunk Enterprise Security, it would be difficult for us to manage and prioritize alerts. There's a potential to lose track of important notifications, and it's essential to our security that we do not miss anything. Splunk has improved our investigations because the reporting and dashboarding make things so much easier. We can provide weekly or monthly reports. I also like Splunk's ability to integrate.""Speeds up root cause analysis and can help identify issues that your organization never realized were occurring.""Recently, Splunk upgraded to version 9.0.02, which includes excellent data dashboards and visualization effects.""It helps us uncover bottlenecks in the network.""Exporting is a good feature. It helps me out when I have to do reports. I do a lot of exporting and crunching of the numbers. Dashboards are okay for showing to the leadership, but for doing statistics and updating tickets, the export feature is very beneficial for me."

Cons
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening.""Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models.""There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns.""It is really old. We are moving towards converting everything into a Power BI environment. We want to have a self-service type of BI environment where different levels of users in organizations can log onto a portal and retrieve the data they need or get the necessary insights for decision-making that's important for them or their business unit. They have built a new version of QlikView called QlikSense, which probably competes with newer BI tools, such as Power BI, but they are far behind. That's why we are moving towards a newer tool that's easier to use and has more visualizations to represent the data.""Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved.""They could improve the update time.""There is a challenge on the frontend when it comes to browsing data through QlikView, as it isn't entirely compatible with other platforms we use.""They could provide a user-friendly analysis process rather than specialized IT resource code."

More QlikView Cons →

"While Splunk Enterprise Security offers valuable features, its cost is high and could be more competitive.""I find that the learning curve for Splunk is relatively lengthy.""It takes time to train people.""The documentation is in definite need of improvement.""Some of the queries are difficult to run and have room for improvement.""We usually have to follow up with technical support on our open cases.""Considering the contract thing and the whole legal area, it takes forever to get the contracts signed and to be able to agree to the terms and conditions for my company as well as for Splunk's team.""The upgrading process could be smoother."
