We performed a comparison between Oracle OBIEE and Splunk Enterprise Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, SAP and others in BI (Business Intelligence) Tools."I have not personally used any such products related to this service, however based on the popular opinion, Microsoft Power BI is more popular. We have never switched from this software due to infrastructure and license related costs. However, my team acknowledges that the Power BI is much more enhanced and includes features that are easier to use, including its drag and drop features. I am not sure, if OBIEE has these features, due to lack of updated versions."
"For me, it makes the difference is in terms of our users being able to take advantage of a product which allows you to get access to data, reports, make decisions quickly, and have better insights regarding operations."
"In terms of features, everything is good. It is also stable and scalable."
"The solution offers a wide range of software tools to meet various needs, such as those concerning reports, developer solutions like APEX and the integration of data."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the various scenarios the product offers and its stability."
"The scalability of the product is good."
"Oracle OBIEE is good for data visualization and analytical reporting."
"It is easy to create a report quickly. It does not take much time to create an ad hoc report."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk is the management and built-in workflows."
"The most valuable feature is the incident dashboard, and the extensive use of correlation searches, which isn't available with a standard Splunk search package. This feature is important to me because it enables SOC analysts to do their job more efficiently and be able to investigate or mediate incidents at a faster pace."
"The feature that we use the most is the correlation search engine within ES."
"Splunk has machine learning which is a valuable feature."
"We are using Microsoft 365 and we're using the Exchange Mail Service. It's good for monitoring that in particular."
"We can quickly search for almost anything across many log sources in seconds."
"Splunk has facilitated the correlation of information security logs to look for incidents which could cause damage to the company's infrastructure, as well as financial losses from leaks."
"The completeness of the solution is what we like the most."
"The platform's interface needs improvement."
"Retail, Finance, Wholesale"
"It needs a better security management system."
"It is very biased towards Oracle infrastructure. One of the major red flags we have at the moment against Oracle is that it doesn't support deployment on other cloud providers. We're quite heavily vested in AWS as our infrastructure, and Oracle is yet to formally support deploying on those virtual infrastructure instances. That's quite disappointing, and it also cuts them out of over 70% of the market."
"The pricing model could be improved. Right now, it's quite confusing. Many customers have this feeling that it's a super-expensive option."
"One significant improvement is the need for simplification. The set up could be more intuitive. An enterprise setup with HA and DR are pretty complex and to get a robust solution one has to play around with Real Application Cluster data sources and FAN notifications as well as WebLogic clustering and external load balancers. SSO also is not that simple to set up especially if you want all your Oracle systems to use the same SSO solution, i.e., no cheating with direct LDAP connectivity."
"The ability to migrate from one version to another, such as doing so from version 11 to an upgraded 12 of Oracle business environment, can be difficult."
"Oracle OBIEE could improve by having better integration and compatibility with other vendors."
"You do need a lot of training and certification with this product."
"In terms of the interface, it could include some improvements for the look and feel."
"Most of my interaction is with the user community, which is how Splunk wants it. When I need help, that community is very hit or miss."
"It's difficult to set up initially, and their billing model is also a bit complicated."
"The cluster environment should be improved. We have a cluster. In the Splunk cluster environment, in the case of heavy searches and heavy load, the Splunk cluster goes down, and we have to put it in the maintenance mode to get it back. We are not able to find the actual culprit for this issue. I know that cluster has RF and SF, but it has been down so many times. There should be something in Splunk to help users to find the reason and the solution for such issues."
"An area of improvement would be the licensing of the solution. They need a free license, which would allow faster lead times."
"It needs more formatting control without having to be an admin."
"Could be more user friendly."
