We performed a comparison between BigPanda and Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The main thing that we like about BigPanda is the user interface."
"Alert deduplication and correlation - In an environment like the NOC where you're ingesting hundreds and thousands of alerts from various monitoring sources, it's time consuming and difficult to go through individual alerts and also difficult to spot critical issues. It's been great to have BigPanda not only deduplicate alerts but also correlate alerts that are seemingly unrelated, to create a clearer picture."
"The event correlation is really good and it is able to reduce the noise. It is a good tool for anomaly detection."
"The best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"The solution is user-friendly and has good performance and certification."
"The most useful feature has been the AI/ML. The way BigPanda uses the AI/ML is good compared to other SRE tools."
"The most valuable features of BigPanda are the API integration was good. It enables us to do faster onboarding."
"The program is very stable."
"The most valuable thing that we have seen within our group is the ability to ingest all this raw data and have it organized in a certain way so that different groups can get effective alerting from this massive amount of raw data that is out there."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its ability to get information about all of the security measurements in my environment."
"Great monitoring of network devices."
"It can monitor, get the data, and then report on the data."
"It's a very easy-to-use solution."
"The initial setup was straightforward. We didn't find it to be too complex."
"The most valuable feature is log reporting."
"The features I have found most valuable are log searching and log analytics, both of which are quick features."
"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."
"Lacks sufficient dashboard features."
"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."
"BigPanda attempts a little of everything and fails at most."
"The solution could improve by having better integration."
"The cost of this product is too high compared to New Relic."
"There is a lot of room for improvement with the automation."
"This solution is difficult to configure and the instructions are complex."
"Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring's data analytics can be improved by including suggestions for various types of continuous monitoring."
"The cost needs to be re-examined. It's extremely expensive to run. It's also expensive to expand. That's the number one complaint all of my customers have when it comes to Splunk. It's way too expensive compared to other solutions."
"Splunk could be better integrated with configuration manager solutions so we can automatically resolve issues without human interference."
"In the next release, I would like to see more integration with other solutions."
"It would be useful if they provided some help pages. If you don't know too much about the tool, there should be more documentation readily available. It would be useful if they had a help button embedded in the solution so you could ask questions and get answers."
"Splunk would be better if some tools were integrated to be able to take action on security or network concerns."
