We performed a comparison between Qlik Sense and Splunk Enterprise Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, Splunk and others in Data Visualization."Allowing the users to be able to take snapshots and create their own story without ever leaving the application is a very good feature."
"The Nprinting is useful."
"Some of the valuable areas of this solution include producing individual reports and closing the gap."
"It is very easy to use, and the Qlik data engine has been able to handle everything we have thrown at it."
"The most valuable feature is the user experience."
"Takes the super features of QlikView ETL capabilities to a whole new level with its new drag and drop feature, and extension capabilities derived from the robust Qlik API."
"With the changing business landscape, it is nice to access Qlik Sense through an external website. As an organization when we use QlikView Desktop, we need to connect to our internal network. We can access QlikView through the QlikView access point but the website has a little different look and feel than the desktop application."
"My organization now has data from disparate systems at their fingertips in a way that lets them get the answers they need when they want it."
"The correlation search functions that generate all the notables are valuable. That can get pretty complicated, and it handles that pretty well."
"The solution has plenty of features that are good."
"We have created a few custom use cases for Splunk that have helped us detect threats faster. For example, we set up endpoint-related data models and specialized setups for various scenarios. It's more efficient than some other products I've used."
"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."
"Splunk has facilitated the correlation of information security logs to look for incidents which could cause damage to the company's infrastructure, as well as financial losses from leaks."
"Without Splunk Enterprise Security, it would be difficult for us to manage and prioritize alerts. There's a potential to lose track of important notifications, and it's essential to our security that we do not miss anything. Splunk has improved our investigations because the reporting and dashboarding make things so much easier. We can provide weekly or monthly reports. I also like Splunk's ability to integrate."
"Splunk Enterprise Security helped us with faster detection of threats."
"Support is quick and competent."
"Ad-hoc reporting capabilities would be ideal."
"In my opinion, collaborative development of the Qlik Apps is a bit tricky and difficult in the Qlik Sense Cloud."
"We have faced some issues with NPrinting, so I feel there is some improvement needed such that it would allow the use of variables and calculative fields from Qlik."
"The management console appearance needs improvement to its look."
"The on-demand report generation button in Qlik Sense currently doesn't work if NPrinting requires Okta verification, which our company uses."
"From the initial setup of the product we had some struggles getting connections to some of our databases to function, this indicated that some of the data extract drivers can be improved and addition of some of the older database engines need to be added in Qlik Sense."
"The only thing I would like to see is the ability to create a master app that opens when a user creates a new app that has all the master items, colors, logos, etc., that my organization uses. This would help with keeping master items the same across the apps and would make development a little quicker."
"The communication with the solution's sales managers in Europe is very bad, making it an area that requires improvement. My company usually gets no response from the tool's sales managers."
"Sometimes the communication with support happens with multiple staff. They should reduce the time to resolution."
"Splunk can be an expensive solution. Technical support could be improved as well."
"Custom visualizations are real hard. While the default visualizations are good, creating enhanced visualizations are complex."
"Integrating tools and creating use cases could be easier. It's hard for a junior security engineer with only a couple of years of experience to write use cases. They can do it, but it's much easier in a solution like IBM QRadar. Setting conditions is like a multiple-choice type of thing. It's a more user-friendly process."
"AngularJS/ReactJS inclusion could be made easier in GUI."
"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."
"Splunk needs to be able to hold more days of data. At the moment it only holds three months of data."
"I think the machine learning should be emphasized. Now, it's really important to analyze Big Data, data mining. A SIEM solution, like Splunk, needs an improved data mining solution, artificial intelligence."
