Cons
"The product lacks the ability to manage universal connectivity, so it needs to be made better for users."

More SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards Cons →

"The use cases provided by Splunk are a good starting point, but could cover many additional topics to ensure that a smaller or less experienced shop might maximize the value of an ES deployment.""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.""Its search or filtering capability is nice, but it can be improved. It is currently a bit complicated, and it should be simplified. If we can write the search filter in a more simplified way, it would be better.""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.""The historical data extraction needs improvement. I would like the capability of taking data and having it trend longer.""The solution could improve by giving more email details."". Having a trial version or more training on Splunk would be helpful.""Delays in responses from the technical team can pose challenges for both vendors and clients, especially considering that Splunk applications and machine solutions are critical assets."

More Splunk Enterprise Security Cons →

"It needs more presentation/charting capabilities and integration with GIS."
