Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."A user-friendly solution."
"The most useful feature has been the AI/ML. The way BigPanda uses the AI/ML is good compared to other SRE tools."
"Alert aggregation was the primary requirement. BigPanda pulls all this together into a single UI for us, allowing us to see related alerts grouped together into an incident, and enables us to easily create a JIRA ticket and Slack channel to manage an issue."
"The event correlation is really good and it is able to reduce the noise. It is a good tool for anomaly detection."
"The solution is user-friendly and has good performance and certification."
"The program is very stable."
"The best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"We have also made extensive use of the outbound integrations to ticketing systems (JIRA) and collaboration tools (Slack). The main driver for us has been getting all alerting into a single UI and enabling us to streamline our incident management process."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"It is a one stop shop as a full monitoring and alerting solution for operations and application analysis for most of our back-end systems."
"Good for log collection and log management."
"Deployment server for deploying changes in one go."
"The most valuable feature is the log aggregation, being able to scan through all of the logs."
"Visualizations helped the organisation with a better understanding of its KPIs."
"I like Splunk's data aggregation and search capabilities."
"We can do things in minutes instead of days."
"Analytics is an area for improvement, being able to break down the actions that are being taken by users of BigPanda, as well as the auto-magical work that is being done by BigPanda."
"The usability needs to improve, because it is a pure code environment."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"Lacks sufficient dashboard features."
"BigPanda attempts a little of everything and fails at most."
"BigPanda can improve the correlations. We didn't see any big value. It is still good at the same event deduplication, event processing, and ticket creation, but I was more looking at event analysis and event correlation. In that area, it is still no big difference between the other solutions on the market. All of them, are in the same immature stage."
"We had to use a partner for the deployment."
"Our infrastructure is quite large - tens of thousands of servers, often with 30-plus checks running on each host with one minute intervals. This generates a lot of data often in bursts (when we have a large scale failure). This has caused some delay in the ingestion pipeline."
"On-premises scaling of the solution is a bit more limited than it is on the cloud."
"DMC should be a little more intuitive with better dashboarding. Seeing the cause of data flow can be tough to track down."
"Splunk ES could have more pre-built integrations and rules. The detection is fairly accurate, but it depends on the rules you create. Splunk's out-of-the-box configuration isn't that useful."
"I would like the ability to view logs for specific instances and not have to pull the logs for the entire Cloud environment in Splunk."
"The GUI can be improved to include some of the capabilities that other BI solutions have."
"Their technical support sucks."
"Splunk needs to be able to hold more days of data. At the moment it only holds three months of data."
"The presence of multiple layers creates a significant challenge for monitoring across cloud environments."
