Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, Oracle and others in BI (Business Intelligence) Tools."The solution is quite scalable."
"The user interface is easy to work with."
"Technical support has been great."
"Ease of development and maintenance."
"I think the visualization part is valuable."
"Provides a full platform (database, ETL, reporting, analysis, and so on)"
"Helped identify bad data, enabling the corrections needed to the data for management."
"I like that I can use Power BI to upload data. That is very important for me. The visualization is also convenient and easy to use."
"The data analysis part is good in Splunk, which is something that I like the most. It is also quite easy to use. Its dashboards, visualizations, and analytics are good."
"The ability to analyze huge amounts of sales data and accurate prediction of sales forecasting is the most valuable feature."
"The solution has proven to be quite stable."
"Splunk's strongest suit is its user interface. We can integrate multiple solutions and adjust settings in the Splunk interface."
"Splunk is quite flexible for our customers. Splunk does not filter from a specific lock, you can define it later."
"This solution helps us increase our productivity."
"The ability to view all of these different logs, then drilling down into specific times or into specific data sources, has proved to be the greatest aspect in decreasing our troubleshooting overhead time."
"I like Splunk's data aggregation and search capabilities."
"It has limited performance capabilities in terms of connecting to large transactional databases, but it is fine for simple and quick queries from Excel spreadsheets or one table. The premium level is going to be more applicable for the higher transaction-level databases."
"I think that the solution is harder to use for people who are not experts in data."
"Lacks the ability to copy data from BI into PowerPoint."
"Defining a relationship was very confusing. There were circular directions for which I had to do a lot of adjustments in the data. They can do something to make it easier."
"Most of the dashboarding tools have prebuilt graphs. So, you have to stick with them, unless you are going to use a third-party tool to create them, and then you are going to upload them to the BI tool. In Power BI, they started supporting this functionality and created a tool for that, but it isn't yet complete and mature. It is still exceeding the expectations and is better than most of the BI tools when it comes to creating custom graphs, but it needs more enhancement and simplification. It would be good to have a design tool provided by Power BI to design the graphs that we want and set the figures that we want on them."
"Microsoft BI can improve some of the visual level filters or visual functionality, that are available in other BI tools, such as Tableau or Qlik Sense."
"The solution could be quicker at rendering data."
"The look is simple, and could be a little more professional."
"I haven't found a way for me to create my own plugins and integrate them into Splunk, but this isn't necessarily a limitation; it could simply be a lack of knowledge on my part."
"Could be more user friendly."
"An area of improvement would be the licensing of the solution. They need a free license, which would allow faster lead times."
"This is a costly solution."
"It requires a significant amount of relatively complex architecture once you push past the single server instance."
"Splunk should have more regional data centers in the Middle East."
"The case management area of the ES could be improved. The ability to move cases through various stages and states. The ability to close a case would be key improvement."
"It's difficult to set up initially, and their billing model is also a bit complicated."
