Find out in this report how the two Cloud Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It delivers our customers many metrics, so they may make decisions"
"It gives us visibility inside applications. It helps us to dig down and find the root cause of any issue within the network."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"Scalability and flexibility. The product can grow with your infrastructure so you don't have to install other products. Just add components. It's very simple."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"The data collection from our VMs, containers, databases, and backend components is valuable."
"The solution's basic visibility is one of its most valuable features. So, it is a solution that is easy to use...The solution's initial setup process was straightforward."
"The initial setup was straightforward. We didn't find it to be too complex."
"The tool is efficient in collecting, monitoring and evaluating logs."
"The Add data feature lets you gather any type of log and easily analyze it."
"The features I have found most valuable are log searching and log analytics, both of which are quick features."
"The feature I find most valuable, is the data integration."
"It can monitor, get the data, and then report on the data."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"The clustering part of indexes can be more refined."
"The implementation can be more user-friendly."
"They need more EDR functionalities."
"A lot of customers had a hard time effectively searching within the data in Splunk. There is a learning curve from searches to indexes and using all the macros that we have created. It is a little difficult for somebody who has not used it quite a bit and does not have a lot of practice with it, but the AI features that we have been hearing about through Splunk will make it a lot easier for us to use human language to search this data. That is big. That is pretty powerful, and that will help a lot with our customers."
"We still use Splunk Enterprise licensing. A lot of the newer features go into Splunk Cloud before Enterprise. We're not looking to switch our licensing over, so we're falling behind on the newer features."
"It's a bit difficult to use. It takes some time to get into it and to get it to do what you would like it to do. It is not straightforward to use it."
"The solution's stability is an area that has room for improvement. It needs to provide constant stability to its users."
"The product collects a lot of data but it does not assure that it collects all of it."
