"The varied prebuilt feature is the most valuable because it ensures that we have complete coverage over all of the key questions.""Splunk has improved our operations by giving us access to more information and allowing us to deploy more use cases.""We have a one stop dashboard for health of some of our services where you can click in and it takes you to other dashboards that have custom near real-time metrics that show the application's health.""Splunk Enterprise Security comes with 300 pre-deployed use cases that can be easily customized to meet the specific needs of our organization, without the need to purchase additional tools.""Splunk can extract all kinds of data.

Cons
"For me, it is important to have a mix, what is the "view" and what is the "sense", Qlik Sense. They have two tools, but for me it is important to have only one tool, which combines the functions that we have from one side and the other side.""Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models.""Enhancing user-friendliness would be highly beneficial.""If a user wanted to see something not included in the application the new object had to be created by a power user or developer because Qlik view's scripting has somewhat of a learning curve.""The user interface is old.""Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved.""They could improve the update time.""Installation and deployment could be made easier and quicker."

More QlikView Cons →

"The algorithms customization of Splunk could improve. They have limited algorithms for machine learning support. If they can allow the user to add more machine learning algorithms, such as the ability to choose the algorithm that a user might want. Additionally, they should provide the required libraries for those algorithms, and then analyzes the data for use.""The prices are complicated as we operate in a small third-world country.""More training on PetaData using artificial intelligence techniques to identify the events which are not normal and exceptions that would help the organization identify threats and malware on the go with results.""My company could benefit from doing more Splunk training with Splunk consultants teaching us how to use it.""The user access control could be much more granular, so that the admins can control r/w/x access for specific features of the product like dashboards, etc.""We do have to educate developers on how to not blow it up. It is a little to easy to write an expensive query and overly stress the system. This could be improved.""The training was mostly sales-focused, like how to monitor your sales. It was hard to then come back from doing the training and try to switch it to a cybersecurity focus because all the training we did was sales oriented. The basic training didn't really touch on any kind of cybersecurity use cases or anything like that. That would have been great to see in the training.""I feel the solution to be too slow."
