"It has the ability to alert and track logs from different sources."
"The ability to browse logs from multiple sources at the same time really speeds up root cause analysis."
"From my experience, the visual aid that it provides is most valuable. There are charts and other means to provide information."
"We solve issues that we previously could not since we now have the data."
"It has a rapid response search environment in the event of an incident."
"You can use it to gather syslog messages from anything."
"Splunk Enterprise Security's dashboards are a key asset."
"Visualizations are the best way to understand deviation techniques from the norm."
"We saw the granularity that we could get from Splunk far exceeded what we already had. We had the ability to have our security team really focus on the platform and stay within the platform, but they could correlate with a variety of other stakeholders, and our stakeholders were growing."
"The logs on the solution are excellent."
"Improvement is needed in the dashboard of InsightOps, especially for less technical users."
"The solution takes a little bit of time when we load the website for the first time."
"Rapid7 InsightOps could improve by making the search query better. There are times when the search query is broken and it does not find anything."
"There are a few things I would like to do with a few more complex queries which I am not able to do right now, because it is a SaaS solution."
"Since I used the beta, improvements are to be expected. The dashboard options could have been clearer, but I believe it is more a problem with the limited documentation available at the time."
"Endpoint access is the only issue I can think to mention, even though the endpoint access we have with Cisco is fine."
"Splunk does not provide any default threat intelligence like Microsoft Sentinel, but you can integrate any third-party threat intelligence with Splunk. By default, no threat intelligence suite is there, whereas, with IBM QRadar or Microsoft Sentinel, the default feature of threat intelligence is there. It is free. If Splunk can provide a default threat intelligence suite, it would be better."
"The product was designed for security and IT with business intelligence needs, such as PDF exporting, but this has not been the highest priority. While the functionality is there, it could be developed more."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive."
"Their technical support sucks."
"The presence of multiple layers creates a significant challenge for monitoring across cloud environments."
"Custom visualizations are real hard. While the default visualizations are good, creating enhanced visualizations are complex."
"The Web Application Firewall will send you too much information because it's more dedicated to security than a normal firewall."
