We performed a comparison between AWS Auto Scaling and Splunk Enterprise Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The various scaling options available, such as step scaling, are particularly useful."
"It helps us to reduce the cost."
"It is a stable platform."
"The solution helps optimize the cost of the AWS environment."
"It efficiently handles traffic, ensuring we are not running expenses and the infrastructure is strong enough to handle the load."
"The tool gives you the flexibility to scale up and grow. The solution is also fast to deploy."
"AWS Auto Scaling is cost-effective and very useful for businesses."
"The good thing about Autoscaling is that it provides the capacity to minimize downtime. So, it gives you the assurance of stability and robustness within your system."
"The stock analysts and security people use one single dashboard (one single location) to check our logs."
"It has helped us look at modern technology, as well as penetrate our legacy systems, to see where the bottlenecks are."
"The most valuable features are the logs, which allow us to identify what happened and who interacted with the web repository."
"The initial setup is simple, not very complex. Initial deployment takes around 10 to 15 minutes to set up the entire base for Splunk including all three tiers."
"To get visibility from your network devices, servers, and security devices is a great feature."
"It is easy to use, and easy to implement."
"The solution has plenty of features that are good."
"The solution helped reduce our alert volume."
"Flexibility in configuring the workload is missing in AWS Auto Scaling."
"The product’s security features need improvement."
"The solution must improve automation."
"The solution is not out-of-the-box and you have to study to use it. It should be more easier to use."
"The solution's infrastructure scalability and elasticity could be improved."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement."
"The setup can be a bit complex in some situations."
"It has latency issues. It depends on the distribution used, whether it's Amazon Linux, Windows Linux, etc. Occasionally, there are latency issues, which might lead to slower performance."
"Splunk needs local technical support."
"Make it easier to include roles and user controls, as it is horrible now."
"The solution should also have more advanced capabilities in comparison with QRadar, which offers Watson."
"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."
"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."
"Integrating tools and creating use cases could be easier. It's hard for a junior security engineer with only a couple of years of experience to write use cases. They can do it, but it's much easier in a solution like IBM QRadar. Setting conditions is like a multiple-choice type of thing. It's a more user-friendly process."
"Enterprise security: Splunk must work on clarifying the solution to customers and explain how to gain more from it."
". Having a trial version or more training on Splunk would be helpful."
