"The visibility is amazing with easy dashboard creation."
"Out-of-the-box, it seems very powerful."
"The reason we haven't rolled it out across the board is due to the fact that the licensing is so expensive."
"In Brazil, there are few documents, courses, and other resources for studying and implementing the tool."
"The licensing ends up being more expensive than other options."
"The installation process can be a bit complex."
"The visualization should be better in SAS Visual Analytics. It is easy to use but when compared to other solutions it is lacking and the support is not very good."
"There are scalability issues. It depends on the data volume and number of end-users. VA requires a lot of hardware resources to move volumes of data."
"Better connectivity with other data origins, better visualization, and the ability to create KPIs directly would all help."
"There is room for improvement in anti-money laundering prevention and operation monitoring, as well as operation monitoring surveillance."
"Its interface could be improved."
"I think the tech support response time could be a bit better. Sometimes I need to wait more than 24 hours for a response to my tickets."
"A problem that we had recently had was we licensed it based on how much data you upload to them every day. Something changed in one our applications, and it started generating three to four times as many logs and. So now, we are trying to assemble something with parts of the Splunk API to warn ourselves, then turn it off and throttle it back more. However it would be better if they had something systematically built into the product that if you're getting close to your license, then to shut things down."
"Splunk could be improved by reducing the cost. The cost is one of the biggest challenges for us in keeping to our production requirements."
"It needs integration with a configuration management solution."
"It can be tough to get a hold of somebody in technical support depending on the complexity of the issue."
"Over time I will have more requirements and I can foresee the solution could improve the search algorithm to run and output the data faster."
"The price of the solution could be cheaper."
