"We can quickly search for almost anything across many log sources in seconds."
"The tool helps with advanced reports and keeps the system scalable and flexible. It provides a clear picture of the current status of any incidents. As a CISO, I see a lot of potential for future innovation, which is interesting. I've noticed better performance, especially with the reports."
"You can check up on security from the dashboards."
"It is quite extensible. It is a platform that we can build our use instead of each case instead of each case being limited or restricted to each capability. This is probably the best feature."
"We can automatically suspend or terminate suspicious sessions."

"On the technical side, it would be nice to see aspects of the recent acquisition of Phantom make it into the core Splunk Enterprise, not just become a part of the premium Enterprise Security."
"The Web Application Firewall will send you too much information because it's more dedicated to security than a normal firewall."
"Splunk's ability to analyze malicious activities scores an 8 out of 10, but there's room for improvement. By analyzing emerging patterns, Splunk could identify and predict potential threats more effectively."
"The solution could improve by making it more business analysis oriented. The way it is now is designed more for developers."
"Our two main complaints are about the difficulty of the initial setup and the licensing model."
"Splunk could enhance its services by providing more comprehensive professional assistance aimed at optimizing our investment."
"The only thing which can be improved is that they are too subjective on whom their Splunk4Good initiative can be applied. They market it as you only need to be a nonprofit, but there is more to it."
