We performed a comparison between Broadcom DX Application Performance Management and Splunk Enterprise Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Measurement of response time"
"Service maturity when you can retrieve the normal metrics for every major aspect of each module and delivering this info to the correct eyes."
"It helps us prioritize application performance issues. It has assisted triage where we can drill down and see where exactly the problem lies."
"It is very useful and helpful with the analysis of historical performance data."
"Product performance is awesome. It's covering all aspects of the application; good database metrics and internal application metrics. Just tons and tons of data."
"The insight it gives into the applications that it's actually applied to, and the flexibility to do many things with those metrics, and also feed your own metrics from external sources."
"The triage can find the root cause for pent up issues."
"Stability is one of the strongest attributes of CA APM. It is very stable on all platforms."
"The ability to digest any information and then correlate it in accordance with what you need is valuable. The ability to connect to pretty much everything and bring the information in the same format is also valuable. On top of that, we can use their language in order to create and customize the dashboards, correlations, or analytics that we want to incorporate."
"Recently, Splunk upgraded to version 9.0.02, which includes excellent data dashboards and visualization effects."
"Splunk allows us to find insights that we were not able to with traditional BI tools using ETL. It allows us to dig into raw events."
"We can ingest and correlate data from virtually any type of system."
"We did not encounter any issues with scalability. It is almost seamless to add new index (storage) or search (used to analyze the data) nodes to the cluster."
"Splunk has machine learning which is a valuable feature."
"It allows the centralization of data and makes possible new sorts of correlations that were previously impossible using traditional SIEMs such as ArcSight or QRadar."
"Our clients use the solution to find any threats or vulnerabilities inside their environment."
"The upcoming changes for the deployment process of the agent will help a lot, in that others have gotten to that point first."
"The upgrade was complex. The documentation could have been a little bit better, but other than that, it was okay."
"The integration with CA Spectrum is quite difficult to create, and it is also only one way, only being used to view alarms coming from CA APM."
"Support could be much better."
"The stability could be more reliable."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive and address support tickets more quickly."
"We need more capabilities to analyze the information that tools collects; for example, using artificial intelligence, or something like that."
"A CA APM agent takes a lot of memory. That is one disadvantage. If you configure CA APM correctly it will still consume around 15 to 20 percent of memory."
"In the next releases, I would like to see more pricing flexibility."
"I haven't found a way for me to create my own plugins and integrate them into Splunk, but this isn't necessarily a limitation; it could simply be a lack of knowledge on my part."
"If possible, we would like to have not only a log monitoring system but a network monitoring feature in this solution as well."
"In terms of the interface, it could include some improvements for the look and feel."
"The solution could improve by making it more business analysis oriented. The way it is now is designed more for developers."
"The search could be improved. Now, it is a bit difficult to write search queries because they become quite long, then maintaining those long search queries is a quite challenging."
"Free-floating panels in the dashboards are like a glass table."
"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."
