Find out what your peers are saying about Splunk, Wazuh, Datadog and others in Log Management."I would rate the technical support very well as they are knowledgeable and quick to respond."
"The initial setup isn't overly complex."
"Splunk can extract all kinds of data. There's no limitation on what kind of structured and unstructured data one needs to extract — it can access any kind of data, including machine-generated data."
"Compared to IBM QRadar, Splunk Enterprise Security offers faster alert resolution."
"It has reduced the time to resolution, time to investigate, and time to troubleshoot for debugging issues."
"The ability to rapidly diagnose problems in production and non-production, across hundreds of log files, is the most valuable feature."
"The ability to analyze huge amounts of sales data and accurate prediction of sales forecasting is the most valuable feature."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is able to process a huge amount of data without any issues."
"It gives me notifications of notable events."
"It was very complex. There was poor native correlation. "
"It needs to have better reporting. "
"Splunk Enterprise Security can provide more details and help CISOs resolve vulnerability situations better. The reason is that the tools we choose for data analysis and log collection cannot collect all the data and logs. Splunk Enterprise Security should help me with this, but it cannot."
"A lot of people are averse to using new tools so if they make it even more user-friendly than it already is, I think that could go a long way."
"I would like additional features in different programming models with the support for writing queries in SQL or other languages, such as C#, Java, or some other type of query definitions."
"The tool itself is very difficult to configure. It's great for its number of inputs, for the different types of systems devices, and things that it could collect information from. To actually make good use of it, you need a fairly dedicated team of people that have some reasonably good programming or modeling skills to be able to do the things that you need to do with it. Whereas a lot of the other tools are better packaged for that, and so require a lot less training and a lot less dedication."
"The historical data extraction needs improvement. I would like the capability of taking data and having it trend longer."
"Splunk could add more ways to manage archiving and storage. There isn't a web interface. You can do this on the SaaS version, but the on-premise platform doesn't have this option. It has other things but no option for remote NAS. I would like to have a personal web interface where I can specify how long logs should be stored. To have this readily available on the web, you need to adjust some settings on the backend. That is tricky."
"I would like to get visibility into the data pipelines on heavy forwarders and indexers to see exactly their source and the cause of saturation when it occurs. This would help us learn even more about our high use applications."
"Splunk's implementation process for managing multiple indexes can be complex, especially when dealing with a large number of components."
